Reception

Our Wedding

It was evening of February 21st, 2018, and Phil was locking the door of his new apartment before leaving for a date. While locking his door, Phil heard something fierce running down the hall. As he turned around, a small, fluffy Pomeranian was sliding to a screeching halt at Phil’s feet. Phil then proceeded to pick up the fluffy creature, but then he heard what sounded like a human running toward him. As Phil looked up, he saw a beautiful, young lady running in his direction. She looked like an angel coming down from heaven 😊. His somewhat confused facial expression immediately transformed into a smile.

 

(Enter Alaida) Unfortunately, Phil’s smile was not met with the same reaction from the young lady. The two quickly introduced themselves, but the young lady who introduced herself as Alaida, was not in a very talkative mood. She just finished a walk with her dog named Koba after a long day at work and was needing to get dressed for a date as well. 

 

















Alaida was somewhat embarrassed because she met her new, hot neighbor, while chasing her wet, fluffy dog down the apartment complex hall. Although, Alaida was somewhat reluctant to converse, this didn’t stop Phil from saying a few words to his new neighbor.

















After a brief conversation, the two split ways for their separate dates. The very next day, Phil asked Alaida to join him for a glass of wine. After the glass of wine, Phil then proceeded to ask Alaida on an official date. 

 

















It so happened that they planned their&nbsp;first official date on one of the best days known to mankind, National Margarita Day. After a few margaritas and some good tex-mex, the rest is history.&nbsp;















One year later, Phil asked his new&nbsp;neighbor with the small, fluffy Pomeranian to be his wife, and she&nbsp;said YES&nbsp;😊. We now invite you to take part in Alaida and Phil's story&nbsp;by attending their wedding&nbsp; in beautiful Estes Park, Colorado.





We hope that you enjoy the website. Please don't forget to checkout the recommended hotel accommodations, review the list of things to do in Estes Park, consider the listed transportation option, and most importantly, RSVP for the Big Day!
