Brenda Recinos

Bride

Lorenzo Hidalgo

Groom

Summer 2017

Los Angeles

We met in the summer of 2017 and we had so many fun dates. This summer is definitely unforgettable!

January 2018

First "I Love You"

As the ball dropped on New Year's eve of 2017, Lorenzo professed his love to Brenda while dancing the night away! Brenda happily reciprocated her love with a kiss and an "I love you, too."

Summer 2018

Miami & New York

We enjoy taking bachata and salsa classes together. So, we decided to take our first big trip together and travel to the East Coast and try a new salsa style and flavor.

2019

Temecula

We love wine, so on our anniversary, we decided to go on a short road trip to wine country in Temecula for some wine tasting and to explore a new part of California.

2020

Saint Lucia

For Brenda's 30th birthday, we decided to explore a new place in January, right before the pandemic stay-at-home orders. We ended up on the beautiful island of Saint Lucia. We had fun snorkeling in the turquoise water and rejuvenating our skin in the volcanic mud baths.

July 2020

Palos Verdes

Engaged On our third year anniversary, I surprised Brenda during our hike to Portuguese Point in Palos Verdes. I got on one knee and asked, "Will you make me the happiest man in the world? Will you marry me?" She excitedly responded, "Yes!"

Nancy Reyes

Maid of Honor

Our love story would be incomplete without the love and support of my (Brenda's) best friend. Nancy is my soul sister! We have known each other for years! We share the same birth month and year, we both love country music, and we LOVE to dance! Nancy truly has a heart of gold! I know I can count on her at all times. This makes her irreplaceable and I cannot say "I do" without my sister from another mister.

Alonzo Hidalgo

Best Man

How can I begin to explain how essential Alonzo has been to Brenda and I in the development of our love story. He was the first person I confided in when I met my beautiful butterfly. He was one of the first to meet her and welcome her into our family. Alonzo is my brother and best bud! When standing on the altar I cannot imagine not having my bro with me to have my back and support me in the biggest decision of my life. Having him as my best man is truly an honor and an essential part of the next chapter of our love story.

Melany Camila Sanabria

Flower Girl

Camila is our beloved flower girl. The same way Lorenzo and I have seen Cami grow, she has also seen us grow as a couple. We have many fun memories playing and we couldn't tie the knot without Cami walking down the aisle spreading love with her flowers.

Kai Minami

Ring Bearer

Our special ring security boy is Kai. Lorenzo and I have sweet memories playing and singing with Kai at grandpa "Pipzz's" house. From Lorenzo sharing movies from afar to family gatherings, Kai has a special place in our hearts. Our ring bearer is sweet, adventurous, and very respectful. There is no other that can guard our wedding bands with love on our special day.

Tadashi Minami

Coin Bearer

Tadashi is a charming boy who is always open to new challenges and adventures. He is filled with energy and makes every moment FUN! Our coins need a wealth of positivity, this is why Tadashi is the perfect person to present our arras on our special day.
