Wedding Party
Angeliyah Rucker
Maid of Honor
After 13 years of friendship and living together twice in two different states, it was a no brainer that Angeliyah would be Alexandria’s maid of honor.

Mark and Richard have been friends for 3 years and Richard refers to Mark as his first Milwaukee friend that wasn’t Alexandria’s friend first. Mark will be standing by Richard as a groomsman. Mark and Richard share a unique sense of humor that always creates an entertaining atmosphere.
Robert “Arty” Ramierez
Groomsman
Richard met Robert while working at McCoys where Richard was his supervisor. Quickly he became his first friend in San Antonio after Richard moved from his hometown, Beeville. Robert would invite Richard to a party where Alexandria’s friends were. This party would eventually lead to networking that would connect Richard and Alexandria. Thanks Arty! Robert will be standing as a groomsman.
Gabriella Lopez
Officiant
When deciding who would marry Alexandria and Ryan, they wanted it to be meaningful. Someone who really knew them as a couple as well as individuals. Gabriella immediately came to mind. Gabriella can speak to the essence of their relationship and maintains a friendship with both individually. She’s also pretty cool.
