Our Wedding

We were two strangers who met at the diamond. We went on our first date and it went really well. Our personalities connected instantly, it was perfect. We decided to take the next step after and began dating. After a few weeks we knew instantly we wanted to take another step, commit to one another and make our relationship official. Although we were not looking, we found one another. In each other we found our best friend, love of our life, and soulmate. We fell in love but it wasn’t like falling at all, it was like our heart knew it was home. December 31, 2024 we said yes to making life with each other forever. Meeting later in life was how it was supposed to happen. We were at the right place at the right time. Little did we know that first text sent was going to be our lifetime together and we both are so grateful we replied.

Our Story

She is spunky and the best sissy anyone can have.  She is my emotional stability and the top of the line wedding planner. I couldn't get thru this day without her by my side.

As the wedding planning started I knew without a doubt Mel was going to be my best woman. Mel is a great friend to us both, she is the most loving, caring, and most down to earth person you will ever meet. Nothing better than having our best friend standing by my side to marry my best friend, love of my life, my soulmate.

My mother.....she is a beautiful, strong and kind women.  She taught me how to love unconditiaonally. We couldn't get through our wedding journey without her endless support.  My mom will always be my biggest cheerleader through thick n thin.  This day wouldn't be complete without her in my corner as I marry my best friend.

My lovely mother, thank you for being apart of my special day as I marry my best friend. Without your love and support I don’t know how I could ever get through this big day. You have taught me to become the most loving caring and selfless woman that I am. 

Geraldine Acosta

Dad, thank you for being apart of my special day. Without you I wouldn’t be the woman I am today. Thank you for always being in my corner no matter what. 

Richard Acosta

Oh my brother, I couldn't think of a better way to include him in this celebration than as our flower boy! He is not afraid to be funny and ready to do that flower boy strut.  It brings me great happiness to have him apart of my wedding and able to laugh later down the road.

My nephew Cristian is a natural at bringing laughter to the party. As the wedding planning begin, he was the first in line to want this role, even gave me his attire. I have no doubt he will be the best flower boy and have a blast throwing those petals.  And I can't wait to see you walk that aisle to Girls just wanna have fun!

Cristian Hill

Although my nephew is well over the age of 12, I couldn't pick a quirkier, fun-loving guy then him.  I knew by choosing him to be our ring bearer he would get the mission done and guard our precious jewels with his life.

My twins.....they asked to walk be down the aisle and I couldn't pick a better person than the love, laughter and joy these to beautiful girls bring to my life. We wouldn't have it any other way than to have our daughters present as we commit a lifetime to each other.

As the wedding planning began, immediately I knew I wanted Jurell to be our officiant.  We all know it isn't a party unless you have "Rell".  I have known this guy for 21 years and he has become a part of our family, and I am blessed he accepted to be apart of our special day.
