Our Wedding

Well, that is how we met. It was almost out of the lockdown during the pandemic and people were now allowed to go to bars, so I did. I met up with my friend Marcus at a bar called THE ONE UP. I approached the bar and greeted my friend, and it was at that moment I saw… the mini corndogs in front of this girl with mermaid color hair.-I looked into her eyes and asked, “How are the mini corndogs?”.She looked at me and said, “Good!”. Then she turned around and ignored me.-The story would have ended there if it hadn’t been for our friends Marcus and Lily who played matchmakers. They talked and Marcus gave Lily my phone number, who in turn gave it to Michelle.-I was texted an hour later by Michelle, and we had our first date at Shiki Sushi in Sherman Oaks the following evening.-A few years and about two dozen Disney trips later we were engaged in Santorini, Greece at midnight ushering in the arrival of Easter with the soundtrack of church bells and fireworks.-It was a total shock and completely unexpected but mildly hoped for.-A year after that, we are inviting you to share this special and important time in our lives.-We guess you could say that we are asking you to… Be Our Guest!-We would love it if you could make it to this fantastically resplendent Victorian Masquerade wedding!--(Guarantee void in Tennessee)

Ours is a love… A love of… Mini Corndogs.

Our Story

Wedding Party

Victorian Masquerade | An Evening of Dark Romance

As the shadows lengthen on this mysterious October night, we invite you to step into a world of timeless elegance. Our celebration is a gathering of souls draped in mystery and sophistication. To create this immersive experience, we ask our guests to dress to impress in their finest formal attire.

Think Victorian elegance meets modern formal

The Palette: We encourage dark jewel tones like navy, emerald, and plum, complemented by shimmering metallics in gold or bronze. Please avoid wearing White or Burgundy.

The Textures: To match the richness of the evening, we love the look of ornate lace, heavy velvets, and intricate jacquards.

The Final Touch: To fully embrace the mystery of the masquerade, please bring your own mask to wear as the festivities begin.

Please see the Inspiration Gallery below for a curated look at the silhouettes, fabrics, and moods we envision for our wedding night.

Having you celebrate with us on our special day is truly the greatest gift of all! Because we’ve already built a home together and have everything we need, we are not registering for physical gifts. Unless you have a spare house you would like to gift us! Instead, we would appreciate your monetary contribution to our dream honeymoon in Japan. P.S. For those who prefer to write a check, please make it payable to either Michelle Rodriguez or John Altobello (rather than combining our names), as banks can be surprisingly picky before name changes or joint account details are finalized! P.P.S. No, seriously, if you have a spare house to gift, we'll take it!
