Our Wedding

Once upon a time, in the digital age, two hearts found each other on a platform designed for connection—Facebook Dating. Jason, with his charming smile and heartwarming pictures featuring Bella and Dutchie, caught Alexs attention immediately. How could anyone resist a single man with a small dog and a tabby cat? From the very beginning, their connection was electric, fueled by Jasons great sense of humor and Alex’s candid nature. Their first date was a delightful adventure that started at a cozy bar before moving to a lively Irish pub. It was there that Jason emerged from the bathroom only to find Alex with a heart of gold, discreetly sharing a glass of water with an unhoused person outside. It was a moment that not only showcased Alexs compassion but also solidified Jason’s admiration for her. They have created a beautiful life together—attending concerts, embarking on road trips, savoring staycations, hiking through nature, swimming in refreshing waters, and indulging in binge-watching shows. Most importantly, they have embarked on the beautiful adventure of parenthood, helping to raise Cash and welcoming Hendrix and Marlee into the world. Each moment brings them closer, the happy and the sad, have weaved a tapestry of shared experiences filled with support, laughter, and love. Their journey led to a breathtaking proposal at the Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, where Jason chose a picturesque cactus garden path bathed in the soft glow of the setting sun. Under the pretense of taking a sunset photo, he captured the moment on video instead. As Alex realized what was happening, Jason knelt down, delivering a heartfelt proposal that marked the beginning of their forever. For Alex and Jason, their wedding is not a beginning, rather it is a celebration of their commitment to one another and the beautiful life they’ve created. It is also a celebration of the love, the strength, and the support of their village —an opportunity to gather with their loved ones and share in the joy of their union. On their wedding day, what excites them most is being surrounded by you all! It’s a day to cherish, filled with laughter, happiness, and memories that will last a lifetime.
