OUR STORY

How we met 🤍

By Shona

Me and Alex both got invited to a New Years Eve party in 2018. The party was being held by Alex's friends in their student house and I was invited as Olivia, my friend, was also attending. I was already inside the party and when Alex walked in I said to Olivia 'who is he, he's gorgeous' 😂. We got chatting and during a conversation about birthdays, Alex said to the group 'guess when my birthday is',  I replied '27th October' (which was a guess) and Alex was in shock and I think that is when he knew I was the one. After that night, me and Alex were texting and went on different dates, including to the Trafford Centre. We then booked a spontaneous trip to Amsterdam 3 weeks later to join our friends, and the rest is history. Over the years me and Alex have been on many holidays to amazing places including Thailand, Vienna, Budapest, Krakow and Barcelona. 6 years later on 1st January 2025, Alex asked me to marry him in Central Park whilst on holiday in New York - the most special holiday yet. We are both so excited for this next chapter of our lives.
