Wedding Day

Our Wedding

Alejandro and Jordan connected through a dating app in January 2021. Their first date at Brio was an instant success, sparking a quick bond between them. Sharing similar personalities and outlooks on life, they found themselves effortlessly clicking. The following weekend, they planned a charming picnic at Starkey Wilderness Park, where they enjoyed Pub Subs under the peaceful embrace of nature. Despite living on opposite sides of town, Alejandro and Jordan made it a priority to spend quality time together during the week, often meeting at the gym or sharing meals they cooked together.

First Date

In early 2022, Alejandro purchased a house in Seminole Heights. Meanwhile, Jordan continued living with her sister in Land O' Lakes until 2023, when the couple made the heartfelt decision to move in together. Jordan brought along her beloved cats, Jade and Jasper, making their shared home feel complete. Alejandro has proven to be a wonderful cat dad, ensuring Jade and Jasper are cared for and loved. Eager to make the house their own, Jordan played a big role in decorating their space, adding her personal touch to every corner and making it warm and inviting. The house has since become a hub for cherished family moments, as Alejandro and Jordan have celebrated multiple holidays together with loved ones, filling their home with laughter, joy, and new traditions. Living under one roof has strengthened their bond, giving them the opportunity to enjoy even more quality time together.

Living Together

On August 21st, 2024, Alejandro proposed to Jordan in a thoughtful and meaningful way. He planned a date at the same location where they had shared their very first date, adding a sentimental touch to the evening. Over a pleasant dinner, the couple reminisced about their journey together and discussed their hopes for the future. When dessert arrived, Alejandro surprised Jordan by proposing. Caught off guard but filled with happiness, Jordan said yes, marking a special moment in their story.

Activities

Kayaking with the manatees is one of our favorite day trip activities. The manatees migrate to the river in the winter, so February is the ideal time to see plenty of sea cows.
