Ashley Pruitt and Jalen LaMarca celebrated their union with a beautiful view from Wrigley Mansion in Phoenix. They both attended the same high school in Kansas City, but they never interacted with each other. That is until fate brought them together when Jalen “slid into Ashley’s DMs” years ago, and they reconnected in Kansas City over the holidays. The couple loves to have fun and enjoy watching Arsenal soccer—Jalen even managed to catch a part of the Arsenal game on their wedding day! A nontraditional but classy vibe was chosen for the wedding, so bronze became the star color of the day. It was enhanced by the florals, an aspect of the wedding in which the bride had been deeply involved; she even included her grandmother’s favorite flower, orchids, in her bouquet. The event was glowing with bright smiles and nods to the couple’s history, such as Kansas City, where they grew up, and Scottsdale, where they live now. Ashley and Jalen’s dogs also made an appearance as custom figurines that sat on the wedding cake. The first dance was choreographed to “Come and Get Your Love” by Redbone, which then gave way to an upbeat dance floor. At the end of the night, bottles of LaMarca prosecco were given to guests in honor of Ashley and Jalen’s new shared last name.
