Gray & Cream Spring Wedding at The Parador

Oddly enough, Lexie and Andy never crossed paths despite years of hanging out at the same restaurants, bars…even in the same volleyball league. But all that changed when a night out to watch a football game became a four-hour-long date. It wasn’t long before Andy realized he’d found something special with Lexie. Knowing her love of books, Andy presented the unsuspecting Lexie with a book to “read” the night before the two embarked on a family cruise. Flipping to the last page, an unsuspecting Lexie found a beautiful diamond ring, and took her first step on the path to forever love. The couple selected The Parador, a historic Houston wedding venue, for a wedding that mixed Jewish and Catholic traditions. “With one of us being raised Jewish and the other Catholic, we blended some traditions of each, but rather than a religious ceremony, it was more nondenominational, more spiritual and personal,” notes the bride. After the ceremony, the mother of the bride sang a classic song from the Broadway musical “Fiddler On The Roof,” then Lexie’s sister and one of her bridesmaids performed a personalized rap set to  the theme song from “The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air.” During a lively rendition of the Hora, friends and family lifted Lexie and Andy high in the air, bringing the celebration to a crescendo. Best wishes to this pair for a fun-filled future together!
