ALLIE & ALEXA
Erie, PA
Allie, 27, nurse practitioner
Alexa, 25, dental assistant
Allie and Alexa originally met about four years ago in a bar with mutual friends, but didn´t see each other again until a year later on New Year´s Eve. They stayed in touch and eventually went on their first date. Three years later, they didn´t let Erie´s notorious lake-effect breezes stop them from getting married on their anniversary, New Year´s Eve 2013. “Our wedding was held outside in a gazebo in the middle of a snowstorm. Both of us wanted our coats off for our pictures, so we were frozen the entire time,” Allie says. “We were upstairs getting into our wedding dresses and I turned around to see Alexa standing there looking more beautiful than I´d ever seen her.” Alexa remembers, “I was shocked to see Allie in a dress! But aside from that, my most memorable moment was when our justice of the peace told us to ´seal your love with a kiss.´ I looked at Allie and realized I was finally going to kiss my wife.” With two busy work schedules and keeping up with 8-year-old daughter, Adriana, it´s tough to see each other as much as they´d like. But nobody´s worried; these sweet ladies share a solid philosophy on keeping things awesome: “Lots of laughing and always letting each other know how loved and important we are to each other.”
