Welcome to Our Site 

We are very glad you are here. This is the location for all things Alexis &amp; Reuben. Visit often for updates and announcements about our upcoming nuptial events. Thank you for being a part of our Forever Love Story.

Welcome 

Our journey started in February 2024. We met online in a bizarre way while we were in two different cities. We spoke casually about our interests, values and preferences. We aligned immediately. During a conversation about one of our favorite artist, Fela Kuti, Rueben asked for a date the following day. The next day, we met and the sparks began to fly. We went on 3 dates within the first 10 days of meeting one another.Over the coming months, we traveled and spent lots of time together connecting over our shared interests, leaning into spirituality. We were intentional about getting to know each other on a deeper level. We explored one another on multiple levels, it all led to a peaceful, graceful and enjoyable relationship. After dating for about 9 months, we explored the possibility of marriage by participating in couple's counseling. From there, pre-marital counseling was a natural and enjoyable progression. On July 19, 2025, Reuben proposed and the magic continues.We are happily enjoying this love journey and we look forward to the next level of our Forever Story.

As we prepare for your arrival, please review the details below to ensure this is a positive experience for everyone. 1. Our wedding ceremony will be Unplugged, which means we kindly ask that you refrain from using your phone for photos or videos during the ceremony. Please silence your cell phones as well.This ensures we can have a sacred experience where everyone is fully present. It also ensures the photographers can get all the shots they need. 2. The color theme for our wedding is the Peacock Feather, this includes shades of Green, Purple, Navy, Teal, Brown. We kindly ask everyone to adhere to the color theme and no white please. 3. Bring your comfortable shoes!! There will be a 2nd Line parade between the wedding ceremony and the reception just for our party. A second line is a New Orleans tradition that includes a brass band, handkerchiefs and REAL GOOD TIME!! We will meet the band close to the reception venue to take part in this celebratory parade. There is a parking lot next to the reception venue for your convenience. The second line will last 20-25 minutes. Please note, there will be safety instructions that we need to follow and they will be given when we gather for the parade. 4. It will be very warm in NOLA.
