Story
The first time we met was a bible study in Quito. Galo wouldn't stop crying and talking about the Lord and Anita immediately thought to herself, I gotta get myself a man like that, but at the moment he was too into God to pay attention. As it happens with this type of things it ended up being Galo the one who pursued Anita for a pretty long time. After many rejections one fine day the Lord told him to write Anita and dedicate a song to her! and not any song a bachata! "Guapa" by Mikael. He really didn't want to, as Anita had made clear she wasn't interested many times. But the small voice of God kept insisting and so Galo was obedient. And then something amazing happened. That message at that time was exactly what Anita needed to hear apparently bachata was her language of love, just kidding it was a God thing (bachata helped). It melted her heart. They started talking, chatting skyping and whatsapping. everything went by so fast! until Galo came to Miami in August 2016 later asked Anita to be his forever over a New Year's cruise! it was very romantic and he recorded the whole thing, most of you have probably seen the video! They got legally married 21 days later in a intimate elopement in Miami Beach Florida at the Eden Roc Nobu Hotel! and have been planning their most special day ever since! The day they get to celebrate with their closest friends and family and say yes to each other in the presence of God plus dance the day away!! Dancing is very important! please come prepared, full disclosure, there will be bachatas!

Your presence is enough of a present to us! But for those of you who are stubborn, we have set up a bank account for any gifts that will be made in the form of cash. Since we are hoping to buy a new home soon after the wedding and we don't really know anything about it yet, the size, space or colors. We figured this would be the best way to make it easier for everybody including ourselves!! Thank you in advance! Also there are some very special things we have set aside at a beautiful store named "Violetas" in Miracle Mile and at Brickell City Center please contact Rosa directly and she will send you photos via whatsapp and help you! she speaks english and spanish!
