Our Love Story
The couple met at the concert of their mutual friends and quickly found that they share passions for music and kids. They make music together in the band, Aisle 24 with Lacy's brother, Jeremy. They enjoy camping, making music, watching Game of Thrones, reading Harry Potter, playing games with friends and family and cheering on the Razorbacks. They are grateful for the support of their families and friends. The year apart is nearly over, and Alex and Lacy are getting excited for their big day.
The Proposal
Alex and Lacy knew from the time they met that Lacy was going to move away for a year to do a volunteer year. They also knew pretty soon after they started dating that they had found something different, something special. The upcoming year apart put a certain pressure to constantly keep their relationship in check. They started discussing not wanting to lose what they had, and believed that a year apart, but also engaged was their sign of commitment to each other. Alex proposed to Lacy in front of her whole family just before dinner at their bi-annual family reunion, saying he knew he was up for the challenge and wanted to know if she was too. Of course she said yes! Being apart hasn't been easy, but love for each other and from their friends and family has kept them strong. They will be married after Lacy returns home.
