Our story
Lexi and Drew met at Cheyenne Mountain High School in science class, and Drew was like “Are you into science? Because I LAB you!” Well, that’s not exactly what happened, but they both could have sworn they had a class together because they had major chemistry. (ba-dum ching) Ok, enough of the puns... Lexi and Drew’s story starts exactly one decade ago. While most high school relationships come and quickly go, Lexi and Drew are the rare and coveted classic high school sweethearts. They met at Cheyenne Mountain High School in science class in 2014 and both felt an instant connection. Lexi and Drew started off with a solid friendship foundation, which slowly progressed that year. They both had so much to talk about and felt everything come so naturally. Over the years they hiked, traveled, attended many school functions, proms and dances. Then in 2020, Lexi and Drew made a decision to part ways. Lexi wanted to pursue college in Denver and Drew wanted to explore possibilities in Durango. This decision was short lived and soon after Lexi joined Drew in Durango for a few months until they both returned home to Colorado Springs. In 2020, Lexi and Drew were engaged and in 2021, they welcomed their first son, Wes Jacob Chadwick and not long after that they welcomed their second son Heath Holland Chadwick. They were both so eager to start a family together that the engagement was pushed out a few years. But now, in 2024, they are ready to solidify their love and longstanding commitment in front of their friends, family and children. Let’s celebrate Lexi and Drew on August 17 as their next chapter together begins.
