Warning: Extreme Cuteness Alert. The following story may cause gushing, sniffling, and even weeping. {You’ve been warned}.
Alex and John met each other in the summer of 1999. Alex was 12 years old and John was a mature 14. Fate threw them together on a sunny, summery day on a beach in Block Island while their families were simultaneously vacationing. They happened to set up their blankets on the beach right next to each other and Alex and her girlfriends developed an instant crush on John who was surrounded by his cute friends. Over the next 8 years, their family vacations continued to coincide and they continued park their beach blankets side by side. At night the two families would hang out together and the little crush grew into a big love. Alex took a chance and invited John {now in college in Florida} to her senior prom. he accepted and flew up to escort her. They started dating soon after. {Too many goosebumps to count right?}
Naturally, BI was the perfect choice for their wedding. As a surprise, John rented a house on the Block and proposed to Alex last summer- and now here we are! They’ve come full circle, married on BI, the place where it all started.
