Going to college can be a scary experience but our bride & groom found solace in one another immediately.
12 Years ago Ninamarie & Danny met at Pace University in NYC. They were literally the first person each other had spoken to at freshmen orientation. Ninamarie introduced herself and they agreed to have lunch.
A few weeks passed and they bumped into one another in the lobby of the dorms. Both forgetting the others name they awkwardly stammered, “Hey I remember YOU!” Ninamarie was getting off the elevator as he was getting on. And as they were separating by the crowd Ninamarie boldly jumped back on. They instantly became friends from that day forward. Ninamarie & Danny officially became a couple that summer and have remained this way since then!
Ninamarie says, “There was no certain moment that either of us were struck because it was always love, from day one.” They were drawn to each other like magnets feeling a deep true love and mutual admiration always wanting to be by each other’s side!
After decade a proposal was definitely anticipated. One snowy afternoon the two decided to have tea at the picturesque St. Regis which would have been the perfect place for the proposal to take place. But it didn’t. Turns out he had planned on doing the deed there but got nervous. They wound up back in the car when all of a sudden Danny turned to Ninamarie and blurted out, “I can’t take it anymore!!”, and gave her the ring. They then celebrated at the Monkey Bar, which is where they had their very first date!
Ninamarie & Danny were married on February 22nd 2014 @ Rockleigh Country Club. Ninamarie elegantly wore a Martina Liana Dress. John Vartan & Band along with DJ Andrew Gangi of Posh Entertainment provided the entertainment with a special performance by Maria “Azuquita”. Colony Florist transformed the room into the couples dream! Matt Koza Cinema joined us in capturing the beautiful moments of their special day.
A special thank you to Ninamarie & Danny for sharing your story with us!
