FAQs

Question

Why Laredo?

Answer

The bride’s maternal grandparents are originally from this unique border town. Alex is a fifth generation Uribe descendant from nearby historic San Ygnacio, home to her grandfather’s family ranch. This region is meaningful to Alex and Scott, as they frequently visit the area and share a love for dove and whitetail hunting. They are excited to welcome their guests and share this special part of Texas, rich in family history and traditions.

Question

What’s the meaning behind the wedding postage?

Answer

The vintage stamps celebrate Alex and Scott's upcoming marriage and symbolize significant pieces of their lives. The Spanish-inspired aesthetic honors Laredo's vibrant culture; the yellow bloom of the Texas Prickly Pear represents a favorite flowering cactus the bride grew up surrounded by on the Carrillo and Uribe family ranches; the bird pays tribute to the groom's mother, affectionately known as Mama Byrd; and the rooster honors the memory of the bride's maternal great-grandparents' beloved "El Gallo" bakery, with more to share when the formal invitation comes your way.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Alex and Scott are excited to celebrate with their closest loved ones at an adults-only wedding. The only exception will be Scott's immediate niece and two nephews. Given the venue's capacity, they are unable to extend invitations to additional children. Your understanding is appreciated.

Question

Can we travel to Mexico?

Answer

While Laredo proudly celebrates its rich culture and close ties to Mexico, we kindly encourage our guests to remain on the U.S. side of the border during their visit.

Question
