We got engaged!

Get to know the bride!

Hi, I'm Jesbaniris Bas Concepción! If you're wondering about the two last names, that's a tradition in Hispanic and Latin cultures where children carry both parents' surnames, with the father's surname listed first.

By day, I'm a scientist with a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Illinois at Chicago. By night (and weekends), I transform into a home chef, baker, gardener, and enthusiastic Kindle reader.

While I love all of those cozy hobbies, I also enjoy working out... after all, being engaged to Alex comes with certain fitness expectations!

Get to know the groom!

Hi, I'm Alex Jaquez!

I graduated from Indiana University with a degree in Kinesiology and now work as a Manager and Personal Trainer at Body Outfitters. My job is to help people get stronger, healthier, and occasionally convince them that lifting is the way to go.

Outside of work, I'm usually golfing, hiking, gaming, or finding new ways to spend time outdoors.

If you can't find me on the dance floor, check the nearest table with food, or the bar...there's a pretty good chance I'm there.
