C hris Ralph and Alex Breaux always knew they would get married in New Orleans. The couple first met at Tulane University in 2012. Chris, from Michigan, was a freshman and Alex, from New Iberia, was a senior. After five years of dating, the two became engaged in April 2017 and began to plan their nuptials, which took place on November 10, 2018. Although the couple had relocated to Denver (Chris works in finance and Alex is a geologist), planning the big event from afar wasn't an issue for the two, as they had time on their sides and made frequent trips back to New Orleans. "We knew exactly what we wanted going into it, which made things easier," Chris says. Some of those requirements were a reception on the Bayou (the couple lived on Moss Street for three years), tasty Louisiana fare, and great company. "We wanted something fun, but in formalwear," Alex explains. "It couldn't be stuffy."
