Mario and Elyssa's love began after a cup of coffee at Starbucks. Little did they know that God was answering their prayers. After a few coffee dates, they decided to pursue a relationship, and fell in love. Since then, they have dedicated their lives to live for the Lord and enjoy every moment together.
Got engaged on Valentine's Day, 2.14.20. After a long day of Elyssa thinking Mario was at work (he was planning and preparing the proposal with his best man (brother) Andres), they went out for dinner to the Cheesecake Factory. While they were enjoying dinner, Andres was working hard decorating a presidential suite at the Van Zandt Hotel with flowers, balloons, rose petals, and music in the queue. Best man did a great job!
