Celebrating the marriage of the butterfly to the lionCelebrating the marriage of the butterfly to the lion

Anise and Antonio’s story begins when they were young—just 15 and 16 years old—learning beginner Spanish together. It was during that class when Anise, full of determination, pulled Antonio’s chair across the aisle to “tutor” him. From that moment, a spark ignited, and the connection between them grew. Through five years of love and life’s milestones, they were inseparable. Anise and Tony shared moments that defined their youth and shaped their journeys, but life pulled them in different directions, and they went their separate ways. Still, the spark they shared never truly faded. Fast forward to 2024: fate brought them together once more. Anise stumbled upon the man of her dreams on Instagram and discovered he was in her state. Knowing destiny couldn’t be ignored, she shot her shot once again, and just like the first time, the connection was undeniable. On June 19th, during their first Juneteenth celebration together as a family, Antonio asked Anise to be his wife. With a resounding “Yes!” that she would shout every time, the Butterfly and the Lion began their journey to unite their houses in love and destiny. Their story is one of rekindled love, patience, and the power of a bond that could not be broken by time. Let their union inspire all who gather to witness their sacred vows.
