Ali and Ricardo were married in Rio de Janeiro this summer in a festive fusion of both American and Brazilian traditions. Ricardo, originally from Rio, proposed to Ali, a native of New Mexico at their home in Mozambique and throughout the planning process, both wore engagement rings in the Brazilian fashion.
