Wedding Party
Latisha Ruteck
Bride
Hi! I’m so happy you’re here and can’t wait to share these special moments with you. Our story started in the most unexpected place—Las Vegas, in September 2019, inside a little ABC store. One random encounter, a shared smile, and a spark that neither of us saw coming turned into something truly unforgettable. From the beginning, we connected over the things we both love: traveling, listening to country music, getting way too invested in board games and of course... shots! It didn’t take long to realize we were building something special—rooted in fun, laughter, and a whole lot of love. When I’m not planning our wedding or daydreaming about our next getaway, you can usually find me spending time with my favorite four-legged companion, Romeo. He’s my best friend, my shadow, and the sweetest boy you’ll ever meet. I can’t wait to walk into this next chapter with the person who feels like home—and to celebrate it with all of you by our side.
Ryan Pabello
Groom
Hi! I’m a pretty simple guy—I like a good day at the gun range, a challenging LEGO build, and winding down with a glass of whisky. I’ve always enjoyed things that require focus and creativity, whether that’s assembling a model or figuring out the next adventure in life. I met the love of my life in Las Vegas, and what started as a casual meeting quickly turned into something unforgettable. From that moment on, everything just clicked. She’s brought so much joy, laughter, and meaning into my life, and I truly can’t wait to build a future together—brick by brick. I’m beyond excited to start this next chapter, surrounded by the people we love most. Thanks for being part of it.

Maid of Honour/Mother of the Bride
My daughter is incredibly special to me—her kindness, strength, and energy lights up every room she enters. We have been inseparable since the day she was born, and I couldn't imagine waking up without her in my life every single day. Shes not just my daughter, she's my best friend. The person who brings light to my day every single moment I breathe. I’m deeply grateful and honored to be part of her wedding day, sharing in the love and celebration of this beautiful new chapter in her life with the man of her dreams.

Maid of Honor
Best friends since highschool, I’ve been able to see Latisha through life’s ups and downs and the moments in-between. Latisha is fiercely loyal to those she holds close to her, and you’ll often see her put herself before others. I am so happy that Latisha has found someone who matches her fiery energy and can keep up with her spontaneous adventures, drunken board game nights and fun-filled party planning. I can’t wait to see her on her wedding day and officially start the rest of her life with Ryan.
Angel Johnston
Bridesmaid
A friendship was born on judgment and sarcasm—and has survived time zones, international moves, and questionable life choices- not bad for something that started with an eye roll. Latisha welcomed me into her family, and from that moment, I felt instantly at home ♥️I feel truly blessed to be standing by her side on her wedding day.
