Andrea fondly remembers the young Rigo making the effort of walking or taking his bike 6 miles away from where he lived just to see her until he was old enough to get his license which made it easier to see each other– going on random dates and supporting him in his soccer games at all times. 

They first met when they were both 14, through a Quinceanera, which turned out to be Andrea’s. Rigo just happened to be invited because his cousin works with Andrea’s sister– they’ve been together just a few months after that. Who would have thought that that invitation would spark a love that would last a lifetime? 

Fast forward to 9 years into their relationship, they both have gone through and overcome so many things together,  that over time, they both knew they wanted a marriage in their future, so 5 months after their 9th anniversary, Rigo finally proposed to Andrea with their closest family and friends as witness just outside of his parents house with a surprise table and flowers with pumpkins that were lit up. 

They then got married Oct, 2022 at Copper Nickel which they found to be the perfect venue to what they wanted and also correlated very well with their choice of colors which are emerald, gold and ivory. 

Andrea wanted to make her wedding one-of-a-kind and memorable so she had a bow put on her veil which was the same as the dress she had for her Quinceanera the day they met. 

Their plans for the future are to have kids and build an empire together.
