In true 'RONA fashion, we pushed back our date again. It will be on our anniversary date, Saturday, April 24, 2021. Same Bat time, same Bat channel LOL Come what may, it will happen on this day. We look forward to seeing you there and celebrating with us. Although we were married on our original date, there was still so much we didn't get to do, that we will be doing in our new ceremony. Anthony came up with the U & Me Take 3, LOL and it's absolutely PERFECT. Thank you all who have been so amazing and have re-arranged your schedules to join us. WE LOVE YOU!! With the numbers getting as high as they were, we had to push it back. We weren't taking any chances with the people we love. Stay safe!! Any questions, please reach out to us via text, FB messenger, or email. Thank you!

So, 'Rona thought she was slick and was wreaking havoc on our nuptials. PLOT TWIST, we got married on our day, Apr 24, 2020. BUT NEVER FEAR THE SHOW WILL GO ON! Our new date is Friday, August 21, 2020. Join us in our I Do, Take 2! Room rates are still being honored at Sapphire Falls, be sure to mention the LOPEZ/WHEELER wedding for the discounted room rate of 184/night. There are cheaper alternatives, Endless Summer Inns- Dockside, which is the new resort, it had literally opened March 15, and was closed down 2 wks later. Surfside is roughly a year old. They are cheaper by at least $50, but there is no additional discount because of the wedding. New RSVPs are due June 24. Previous RSVPs will be honored. If you need to change your response, please reach out to me or Anthony. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Most flights are waiving any change fees, and they are drastically reducing flight prices. The resorts will transfer your reservation without any fees as well. Let us know if you have any other questions. Looking forward to celebrating with you!!! Love, Lisa & Anthony

Picture it, Columbus, Ohio, Jan 2014. I'm minding my business, walking back to receiving at Menards, when I was introduced to this handsome, blue-eyed babe. I was talking my usual mess to Will (the receiving manager), and was like, oops sorry to the new guy. He just nodded like it was no big deal. Over time he started flirting A LOT, but I was being coy-for once lol. One day he was looking at his phone as he walked through my dept, on his way to go home. I said something like, well I don't know why you keep looking at your phone, my number isn't in there. He nodded his head in agreement, as he pulled up his phone to add a contact-me lol. Fast forward to April, I was setting up balloons for Arnie's bday and Anthony was like oh are those for me? (That's how I found out when his birthday was, two days after Arnie's.) That same weekend he sends me a text telling me he was going to Roosters. I said that sounds great have a good time. He said, don't you want to go? -Oh, you were asking me to go? (Sometimes I think like a guy, and don't pick up on hints. BUT to be fair, I'm not a chick that assumes he was inviting me.) Of course, I wanted to go. It was a Sunday, and Roosters was closed, (who knew?), so we ended up going to BDubs, and we've been together ever since. <3

Anthony & I had been discussing getting married. He always said, "One day, babe." Well one day, after going back and forth about Disney or Universal as a venue, he called Loews Royal Pacific and booked our location. ~mind you, I had just cut 6" of hair off on March 2nd. Now I'm about to be married & no hair! ughhh. Back story: I had always told Anthony that I'd like for him to as my parents for permission. it's an old tradition, but I still wanted him to, whenever that would be. He told me one day he had called & asked my dad, and then called my mom. They love him, too, so they said yes. Many people have asked how he proposed, where's the ring? Anthony has shown me that he wants to do it the right way. First he asked my parents' permission to marry me, and then he put the deposit on the venue. (The rings will come at the ceremony.) ~He follows his heart, and does things his way, on his time, (cause I've been trying for two years!) June 14, 2018 we went to a couple stores to look at rings. We found one I loved and ordered it. Anthony said I couldn't wear it until the ceremony. I was like no, i get to wear the engagement ring & the band is at the ceremony. He didn't like that idea so he was pouting cause he wanted to give me the "bigger" ring at the ceremony, and i could wear the band for now. ~lol nooooo, that's not how it works. Finally, we compromised, I'd get to try it on, take a few pix, wear it for a bit then back in the box til the ceremony. He wanted to give me the whole thing, he was so cute about it, how could I tell him no? ❤ June 28, 2019 we had ordered my ring & it came in. I'm so excited! I told him, I still want him to ask officially and put it on my finger. 😁 So after dinner we were home & I took the ring & was mindin my business taking pictures, and Babe comes over to me. I was on my knees by the coffee table taking pictures. He leaned over and picked up the ring and took it out. He looked at me & took my finger & said, "with this ring I promise to keep you forever, brat" lol I laughed, close enough, and said you know this is roll reversal since I wa on both knees & he was standing. We laughed and kissed. ~who says you have to be traditional? Love is love & I'm so proud to be his future Mrs ❤ 💍
