Ceremony

Reception

We limited the number of invites per family because we wanted this to be an intimate celebration, rather than a big party. We have many loved ones in our lives and although it was a tough decision to narrow it down, we are excited to celebrate with all who are able to attend❤️

We will have an open bar

Our Wedding

It was in April 2019 when Eli came hobbling into the Orthopedic office I worked at. He was very quiet and didn't make much conversation. Both me and my coworker looked at each other cause we both thought the same.. Damn this guy is hot! Then she showed me that he closed his eyes when she took the pic of him for his medical profile. He had to have surgery so he was in the office a lot. Every time he would go in I would try and make small talk with him and he wouldn't really say much. He would bring in his "little man" Nemo with him and they would match and I thought it was the cutest thing EVER! I would walk out and take him a sucker every time and he was the shyest little guy, just like his father. A few months went by and one day I see a man walking up with flowers to our building. I rolled my eyes annoyed someone was getting flowers knowing they weren't for me. He walks in and asks for Anjelica. I say me?? He handed me a card and flowers. I was in complete disbelief that they were for me. I opened the card and inside was also a Starbucks gift card. Inside it said " I apologize to do this at your place of work but I wanted to know if you'd do me the honor of going on a date with me"? He then wrote his phone number and his Facebook name. I hesitated being I was done with dating. Heartbreak after heartbreak I promised myself to be alone for a long time. I then realized it was such a bold move from someone who caught me completed off guard that I decided to go for it!This was the beginning of the most wonderful love story that you will all witness as we become one!

Her story

One weekend day I was playing football and got injured. During the football game a player on the opposite team put his foot up to brace himself when we collided and his cleat ended up hitting my knee. We both fell to the ground and when I tried to get up I couldn’t move my left leg. Fast forward to my first appointment with the orthopedics office after surgery. I remember hobbling into the office and noticing this stunning beautiful woman. What I remembered noticing first was her eyes and her pixie wild haircut. I remembered seeing this beautiful woman and wanting / not wanting her to notice me due to my injury. My injury was not a quick recovery I was told it was going to be a journey to be able to walk again on my own. I made many visits to that office and every time I was hoping to get a glimpse of this stunning woman. Not going to lie I remember nonchalantly looking at her badge to find out her name to Facebook stalk lol to see if she was seeing anyone. To my surprise she was not in a relationship and I told myself once I was able to walk I would ask her out on a date. 3 months after my injury I was able to walk carefully on my own and decided to ask this beautiful woman out to dinner. So I decided to send flowers with a card asking her to dinner. I remember looking at my phone and seeing my notes for the letter I wrote but due to my mistake of being nervous for writing a letter. I noticed that I put my old phone number in the letter not my new one that I recently changed to. I told my buddy that delivered the flowers what I did he said he would go back and fix it. I told him to leave it I put my messenger information on there as well. Later that day I received a message from this beauty thanking me for the flowers and she would be more than happy to go on a date after drilling me about the number I gave her. My broken leg experience still haunts me till this day. All the days of lying on the couch with nothing more than Gordon Ramsey on TV by my side. All the days of struggling getting ready and making it to the orthopedic appointments on my own. But if I had to break my leg over and over and go through the struggles……….. I would do it again and again to be able to get this chance of spending my life with you ( Anjelica Rodriguez).
