Sometimes you never know where you might find “The One”…
For Cristina & Brandon it would at a local bar in Queens ironically called “Lucky’s” which, for the two would definitely be the case as that would be the night the two first laid eyes on one another!
Brandon admits, “I noticed her immediately” and as luck would have it they were introduced through mutual friends. The evening gave way to tremendous laughter and a whole lot of fun. So much so that at the nights end they forgot to exchange numbers. As fate would have it he obtained her number from her best friend. Sadly though she had departed shortly thereafter to study abroad in Italy for the summer. Through emails they began to court each other and formally began to date upon her return.
Cristina says, “I realized it was love when we briefly broke up. I quickly concluded there was NO WAY I could let him go.”
Brandon had planned a romantic 4-year anniversary evening at The Castle on the Hudson. At midnight after a lavish dinner and stroll around the grounds he escorted her to their room and on the bed laid rose pedals and a gigantic box. After discovering the box was empty she turned to find him on one knee professing his love for her. He then asked her to his wife and of course she said yes.
Cristina & Brandon were married on May 18th 2013 at the Surf Club in New Rochelle. Tina was flawless in a Paloma Blanca dress with a custom veil by Boutique Voile. Sounds from Bravura Entertainment filled the air. Cristina exclaimed, “We are extremely excited to have Barbara from Anthony vazquez photography shooting the wedding because she has the exact eye we wanted to captivate our special day.”
Thank you Cristina & Brandon for sharing your story and special day with us!!!
