Im extremely picky so this was big for me.
As they continued their courtship, Alex began to re-think her long-held disinterest in getting married.

Growing up, I witnessed my parents live the once-in-a-lifetime lovethey are still together, 40 years this year.
Little did I know, I just needed to find my Matt Kaplan.
you’re free to do it, she said.
We can get married.
So, on May 3, 2023, Matt did just that.
It had been a long week.
I was excited to get home, get in the jacuzzi, and have some whiskey with my boyfriend.
Alex pressed play and a video that Matt had made appeared.
Go find it, he said.
Then, Alex proceeded to follow a scavenger hunt, room by room throughout the house.
