Where It All Began…

A single flat tire would change the lives of Alena and Luis forever. You see, Luis owns a tire shop in Mexia, Texas - Triple L Tires. And Alena had a flat tire.

In 2014, Alena’s vehicle got a flat tire one day. The had to be at work all day so she wouldn’t have time to get it fixed so her PawPaw took her car to the tire shop to be fixed. The next day Alena noticed that the same tire was very low on air so she called her PawPaw to let him know that the tire was still leaking air. He gave her the address to the tire shop in town and she drove there to have it fixed. Luis was the gentleman that fixed her tire and after it was fixed he asked Alena for her phone number. She was flattered and gave in to his request. They went on their first date the following day at the Taqueria in Mexia. The two sat and talked for hours after eating! They two have been inseparable ever since.

In 2016, they decided to have an Easter celebration at their lake house and invited the entire family. Alena was busy with all the preparations for the day while Luis was making his own plans. He was going to propose to Alena!

Easter Sunday arrived and the celebration began. Alena’s brother, named Dylan, blindfolded her and walked her through the front yard. When she was in position, she took off her blindfold and saw Luis on one knee holding a ring. Their children were there as well holding signs that said, “Will you marry me?” It was so special and ever more so because the entire family was there!

Today their typical date nights happen at home. After the kids are in bed they take time for each other. The enjoy relaxing in the pool or hot tube, just talking, stargazing and drinking wine. They are so much alike that they never have a shortage of things to talk about. They both have a lot of respect for each other and that keeps their relationship strong.

The Wedding…

On October 10, 2020 Alena and Luis would tie the knot and officially become Mr. and Mrs. Guzman at Springfield Hall in Groesbeck, Texas on a very warm, sunny day. The wedding was decorated in purple, lavender and white with many small touches to make the event very classy.

They had a backdrop set up for a photo booth, complete with props. They had several yard games for guests to enjoy - corn hole and connect four to name a few. Their guest book was a “Jenga Guestbook.,” in which painted blocks were written on for stacking. These two thought of so many details to make their big day truly enjoyable for all in attendance!
