Our Wedding

It was love at first swipe. With several failed attempts at online dating, we both lucked out by matching with one another on Christmas of 2021. After some incredible dates, we made it official on February 8th 2022 after Lisi and Veilani had also gotten to know Alex. What followed were the best months either could have dreamt. We introduced each other to our own interests. Alex learned how to paint and eat foods from all over while Kelsey learned how much she secretly loved sports.&nbsp; The past two years have included volleyball games, loads of tacos with chips and queso, hikes, adventures to new cities, drive in movie nights, game nights, UD Games, days at the pool and so many other memorable events. In May 2023, we decided to buy our house in Kettering and together we have made it a loving home (with the girls’ help of course).&nbsp; Our engagement was on November 19th, at the Dayton Art Institute where we first started to fall in love. Alex asked Kelsey, Lisi, and Veilani if they would officially become his new family. They all said yes! We are all so excited to become a family and cannot wait to celebrate with everyone.

The ceremony will start promptly at 5:00 pm. We ask everyone to arrive 15 minutes prior.
