Gabriel & Alexis, two young-aspiring politicians, met on the first day of college at steamy, tropical American University in Washington D.C. Gabriel was a scrawny, nice gentleman from the heartland, and Alexis was a tough gal from South Jersey. Their first week in college they went to mass together (hear that Grandma), and watched in horror as their Jewish friend took communion. Through college they both worked on Capitol Hill, frequented Filomena restaurant (where Alexis worked), and enjoyed everything DC had to offer. Gabriel transitioned into a finance guy and Alexis began to take interest in communications and business. Politics was a thing of the past (for now). After two years of friendship when Alexis visited Kansas City she fell in love with Gabriel’s family and the city, and he fell in love with her. After graduating they continued adventuring, taking their first European trip together, moving to the Big Apple, getting the cutest golden retriever ever, and finding strong foundations in their careers. July 14, 2018 Gabriel took Alexis back to American University, next to their old dorm hall, and popped the big question. Alexis said Yes & the rest is history. We’re so excited to celebrate our special day with you. Our wedding is about showcasing the best of Gabriel & Alexis, in a place we love. We hope you enjoy downtown Kansas City and all it has to offer.
