This makes Lexie a vampire-witch hybrid, just like her cousin Robert. Lexie's parents were practically star crossed lovers of a witch and a vampire.

Lexie is first introduced in Noon Sun when Grace brings Masen over to her aunt and uncle's home to prove to him how her mother doesn't approve of vampires. Her father is also the brother of Matt and Jackson Williams, making her first cousins to Lily and Aidan Hale. Her mother is the sister of Elaine Martin, making her first cousins with Grace Martin and Robert Martin. "We included vowing to building a household together that was filled with respect, love and compassion for all, as this is something that's part of who we both strive to be," says Lexie.Alexandra Williams or "Lexie" was born in New York on September 27th, 2007. They wrote their own vows, adding a personal element to their wedding text. "Even though we wanted to keep our wedding small by limiting invites to our immediate families, we wanted the day to be beautiful and special for us to reminisce on," says Lexie. Peter Yoshonis of All Shores Wesleyan Church, Erik's childhood pastor, worked with the bride and groom in premarital counseling sessions and flew from Michigan to officiate the ceremony. "When I saw him, I immediately felt a sense of calm wash over me and I couldn't wait to get out there and marry him." "I started to get a little anxious before the ceremony, and the area of the Commodore I was waiting in looked out to the ceremony area where I was able to steal a glance of Erik through a mirror in that space," says Lexie. But a quick glimpse of the groom before the processional helped soothe Lexie's nerves. Lexie and Erik saved their first look for the ceremony, officially laying eyes on each other as Lexie's father escorted her down the aisle. "I didn't allow myself to fret over the small stuff, and I really think this allowed me to really enjoy our day." "I was so relieved to have everything taking place in one area and that simplified everything tremendously," she says. "Logistics became a nightmare," she says, "so I started to look for an all-in-one option." She found the Commodore Perry Estate in Austin, Texas, which could host the couple's 15-person wedding-from providing space for the bridal party to dress to dinner and dancing after dark-on April 17, 2021.

Lexie and Erik prioritized a stress-free planning experience, and though she initially expected to spread the day's events out over several venues, she soon changed her mind. Living in Texas we were working against the brutal summer months, and we chose to try our hand at planning a wedding in three months before it got hot."

"We got engaged in January and went full speed ahead to get married by April.

"He got down on his knee, and I can't remember anything after that," says Lexie. In 2021, the couple were living together in a home they had recently renovated-a special spot that became the backdrop for an intimate proposal over Lexie's favorite Bolognese, a bottle of wine, and pastries from the bakery where they first met. She had just returned from a vacation to Michigan-Erik's home state-"so, we had a lot to talk about," says Lexie. A week after connecting on a dating app in 2018, Lexie and Erik met in person for the first time at a bakery.
