Our Wedding

Welcome to our story! It all began one fateful evening in the charming town of Ridgewood, New Jersey, where over dinner at Raymond's we discovered a shared love for good food, family, and each other's company. Since that unforgettable first date, our journey has been filled with countless adventures and cherished moments. We've explored every corner of New York City - which we eventually made our home in 2022 - and traveled near and far, including ski trips to Vermont, beach days at the Jersey Shore, and most recently a vacation to Italy where Stephen proposed on the water in the beauty of the Amalfi Coast. When we are not traveling, you can find us binge watching Netflix shows, trying new restaurants, sipping a glass of wine, spending time with friends, and sharing endless laughs. These quiet moments remind us of the comfort and happiness we find in simply being together. Through ups and downs, challenges and triumphs, our bond has only grown stronger. As we embark on our wedding day and this next chapter of our lives, we are filled with gratitude for the incredible love and support we have received from our dear family and friends. We cannot wait to celebrate this milestone with you. Thank you for being part of our story! Cheers,Alexandra &amp; Stephen
