Russian River Wedding | Casey + Alex | Post by Melissa Hesse

This couple holds a special spot in my heart. Alex has been a big part of my life and through our many years of friendship, I knew when I met Casey that it was a perfect fit. They met in New York City while Alex was on a solo road trip and they instantly knew they were in love. After a week of knowing each other, Casey decided to hop on the road trip with Alex and moved to Minneapolis with him. After bearing the Minnesota winter and making the adjustment of living together, Alex and Casey went to Europe in the Summer of 2018. Casey had work featured in an exhibition in Paris and after a week there, they traveled to Barcelona where they spent pretty much every moment on the nude beach of Marbella. While they luxuriated by the water with a cocktail in hand Alex took out a little metal box and asked the big question! Once they got back to Minnesota they decided it was time for another change of scenery and moved to Los Angeles where they are settling for now. Their wedding brought family and friends to a small gay town called Guerneville on the Russian River at the Riverlane Resort. They had suits custom made from their friends at Rose Cut Clothing and Jean Bonnaz. Everyone wore monochromatic colors, and their good friend Anne Horel traveled from Paris to officiate the ceremony. They had multiple bands perform throughout the day for one big festival and celebration of their love. Congratulations to Alex and Casey!
