Alex and Alexa’s journey to the altar had its fair share of big gestures. For starters, he proposed using the Jumbotron during an Anaheim Ducks hockey game. “He got down on one knee and everyone in the stands starting cheering and clapping,” Alexa says. “I was in total shock, not expecting any of this.” Nor did she expect to see the 25 friends who had purchased tickets just to watch him pop the question! “I couldn’t believe how much effort Alex had gone through to plan every little detail of this magical day.” Their big day at Galway Downs—“We loved the rolling hills of the beautiful wine country that Temecula had to offer,” says the Costa Mesa resident—was just as magical. Alexa’s father, a helicopter pilot for the Orange County Sheriff Search & Rescue Team, flew her to the ceremony. “Getting out of the helicopter and walking down the aisle with my dad was a moment I’ll never forget.”
Set The Scene
“Once we stepped foot on Galway Downs, we knew it was the one—huge willow trees overlooking the ponds, with fun little bridges to cross over. It was all so romantic.”
Beat That Bar
The couple wanted the celebration to include more than just liquid vices—so they curated a cigar bar.
“Being in the helicopter and waving to all our friends and family above the trees was a surreal experience.”
