Alex and Chris’s Stunning Shelter Island Wedding

By Jordan Lemke

A San Diego couple through and through, Alex and Chris met at Craft & Commerce in Little Italy and cemented their romance during a sail in Fiddler’s Cover.

That was Labor Day 2016, when Chris convinced Alex to go out on the water with their lab, Rusty—who took care of the rest, thanks to a note Chris tied to the noble companion that provided the perfect window for him to wait on one knee with a ring.

They were married at University of San Diego’s Founder’s Chapel in a classic Catholic ceremony. From there, the celebration moved to Bali Hai, where guests enjoyed delicious food, dancing, and unbeatable views from Shelter Island.

But the moment the couple will never forget? Alex, with a Navy background, cutting the three-tier cake from Fab Cakes with a sword. Dessert is served!
