“We met at the school we were working at. He was the fourth and fifth-grade teacher and I was the Art teacher. It’s ironic because the first time we met, I actually didn’t want anything to do with him. At that point in my life, I wasn’t looking for new friendships or relationships. I felt I needed to be alone, but the minute I let him in, everything turned out to be better than I expected.” – Alecia
“To kick off our big day, we flipped the script by not doing a traditional walk down the aisle. We had some members of our wedding party lead guests down a path to our outside ceremony space. Once there, we had the rest of the wedding party open up curtains (like a doorway) to where we were already standing at the altar, ready to greet everyone instead. It was fun and intimate, and that helped to calm the nerves and take the extra pressure off of us.” – Alecia
“Our reception afterward was energetic and engaging. Because it was a brunch wedding, we had a mixture of breakfast foods served, along with bottomless mimosas. We closed out the reception with trivia, sorbet, bubbles, and dancing. And, we handed out sorbet to our guests as one of our wedding favors (plus, it was a nice cool-down treat since it was a hot day).” – Alecia
“We wanted the festivities to continue throughout the day and invited our guests to meet up with us at Epcot later in the afternoon. Even though we were exhausted, it was an incredibly fun time!” – Alecia
“Our wedding cake flavor was lemon raspberry swirl and piña colada!” – Alecia
