Our Wedding

Once upon a time....

Sometimes people come into our lives so seamlessly you can’t pin point the exact moment you met. We have always known each other. Since grade school,we have had memories of each other poping up along our journey to high school. But high school, in 2014, would be the year that our lives would change forever, without us even realizing it.  A random day after basketball practice I (Lexie) came out of the girls' locker room, ready to shoot some free throws, while waiting for my dad. I looked over and saw Lane sitting there next to the boys' locker room with his crutches leaning against his chair and his leg in a boot. I thought I'd be polite and say hello and ask how he was doing. Little did I know this small gesture that was only supposed to last 2 mins, turned into a 40 minute conversation, and the start of a strong friendship. We didnt drop everything and fall in love right then and there. But it did spark something in both of us. A zing. We developed a special kind of friendship. A friendship where we were open with each other about our relationships, creating inside jokes, supporting one another, and being someone we could turn to in the midst of the nights when our minds wouldn't turn off. Our first date was the start to a memorable love story that continues to close and add chapters every year. We have had quite the journey. But every turn and rock in the road, has led us to the alter. Because every day we choose to love one another. No matter what. 11 years of love and forever to go 🥂

The Ladies

We were girls together. Playing barbies and make believe. Talking about which princess we wanted to be and which prince we would marry. From scrapped knees, to floor burns from the basketball court, talking about boys and their  smiles,we were girls together. It's hard to see the line where we stopped being girls and became Women. I am so thankful for that girl, but I am even more grateful for this caring, confident, funny, outspoken woman who is growing up with me now. I love her and all of our memories. I couldn't imagine her not  being right  next to me, as I were to her, while I marry the love of my life.

Jeanette and I met back in 2019 when I began working at Hattaways. When people talk about meeting twin flames, I truly believe Jeanette is mine.  She is a beacon of light and excitement,  a pillar of strength and ditermination. I admire her and everything she has done/ does. Jeanette is someone who is always rallying for me.  A good way to put it is  she will cheer for me so loudly as I stand next to her, but she will push me forward so I can  feel loved,  excited, and appreciated. She reminds me it’s okay to celebrate little wins, and it’s ok to celebrate defeat, because i'm learning. She is truly a one of a kind person and someone I admire dearly.

Jeanette Nuno

Adri is the newest addition to the Ramirez family and she's the perfect fit. God blessed me with a lot in life, and he finally blessed me with the worlds best sister in law. The love this girl constantly shows for my family and hers is incredibly admirable. Adri is so strong and devoted to living a  loving and caring lifesstyle; its a beautiful thing to be apart of. I couldn't ask for anyone better to share a family  with. 

Adrienne Ramirez 

Bonnie Jean. Bon Bon. She's my oldest and dearest friend.  Growing up together was exaclty what you see in the movies. Going to fairs together, riding fourwheelers, crashing motorcycles,  and raising a little hell where ever we go. Bonnie is the person who taught me to be tough, to laugh at the most inappropriate times, and just have a good time with life. She's the most down to earth person with such a wholesome heart. Bonnie is a forever friend. Once she loves you, that's it. She's in your life forever. I am GRATEFUL for her. 

Bonnie Sanders

Ana came into my life while I was working at Hattaways. I can not say enough how much i love this woman. She is so intellegent, driven, and hilarious.  I've never met someone who inspires me so much to chase my dreams and conquor the world. Her energy is electric and revitalizes me everytime we speak. She's had such an affect on my day to day thinking and my big dreams as well. She's my person, and I love her.

Ana Ramos 

Tayler and I have been friends for a short period of time,  but that means nothing to the bond we share. Tayler is the definition of kindness. She leads her life with love and compassion but isn't afraid to stand up for herself and her dreams. She's truly a remarkable friend. Taylers constant support over the last 2 years has been something i've depended on. She is always up for some fun and crazy nights and some serious soul-searching conversations. She's helped me realize it's ok to know my worth and to aim high and accept nothing less. 

Tayler Jones 

Although Hallie and I's friendship really kicked off in college,   I have known Hallie since we were in grade school.  She's always been a spitfire,  a go-getter, and a great time. I'm thankful  to have a friend as ride or die as Hallie. Everything she does is done with love and determination. She's an amazing friend who I can always count on in any situation.  She's a safe place for me to  land when I need someone  and a hell of a good time when I need one. Hallie is and will forever  be one of my best friends. 

Hallie Tardif

Joining the Cosmetology program was one of the greatest decisions of my life.  It brought Jackie into my life. Jackie is the kindest person I have ever met. She is there for when I need her willing to do what ever she can to help in any situation. Always willing to lend an ear when needed and a hug before every departure home. She is such an amazing friend. I adore her and her family so much.

Jackie Tate 

I met Mallory in college while Lane & I were living with Jeff. Mal was in the cosmetology program with me and we ended up getting super close when she met her now husband,  our roomie Jeff. This was the best year. We all got along so well that our friendship is truly something  special. Mallory is one of the most selfless, caring, FUNNY people I have ever met. She's a constant reminder to me that family is so important and anyone can be your friend if your heart is in the right place. It truly is so amazing to see their little family growing and changing. We're so lucky to have such an amazing family in our life. 

Mallory Dieu 

One of the best things about joining  this amazing family is Maddie. She is  my bonus sister. She truly is the definition of the best big sister. Maddie and I met when she started dating Lanes brother, Chance. I am beyond happy to have  someone like Maddie in my corner. Her attention to detail and ambition are two qualities in her that I would like to say, truly taught me so much in my line of work. She is an amazing friend who is always the first to hop into action for my birthday planning and celebretory outings. She's truly a beautiful human being with a huge heart. 

Maddie Fortney 

 The Guys 

A big part of who I am is because of Chance. He’s not just my brother he’s also been like a father figure to me. I can’t thank him enough for always being one of my biggest supporters in life.  I couldn’t ask for anyone better to be standing next to me on my wedding day. 

Chance  Wilkening

Ever since Logan told his first joke we’ve been friends.  He’s a great guy and I’m honored to have him as a co-best man at the wedding. 

Logan Hersey 

Jeff and I have been friends forever. So many fun memories together. I  can't thank him and Mal  enough for taking care of Lexie while I was in Texas. Truly a special friend.

Jeff Dieu  

He's my brother. We grew up together. He will always be a part of my family. 

Hunter Walker

So many memories in a short amount of time. But I know I can count on him to show up for me as I would for him. 

Cason Nicols 

We grew up together, and we're pretty sure our competitiveness comes from our late night video game sessions.  We always have a good time when we're together. 

Tanner Bren

Chris has always felt like a bonus brother to me. He always looked out for me and included me, and for that, I'm thankful for Chris. 

Chris Conley 

Nic and I have always been close. Growing  up together and trying to stay out of trouble. Nic is over 200 miles away and still a great friend.
