How it started

Our Story

We met online dating, which is a perfectly ordinary way to start a story. What happened next was less ordinary.

On our first date, Alexander turned up an hour late. In his defense: Taylor didn't mention she was leaving until she was already sitting in the coffee shop. In her defense: he was in the pool cooking hot dogs. There was a scramble.

He made it. And then we talked for hours — the kind of conversation where you look up and can't account for the time. He left already looking forward to the next one.

Since then it's been trips, adventures, and a lot of beaches. We can't wait for the rest of our life together, and for all the adventures still coming.
