On August 29th I found myself at Ilio DiPaolo’s for Lisa and Tim’s intimate wedding. While some people might get a little bummed that they couldn’t have the wedding they originally planned, Lisa and Tim seemed overjoyed just be getting married, regardless of the crowd! I found Tim when I arrived, greeting guests (responsibly with his mask of course), and getting everything together including music. I could tell he was nervous, but mostly I knew he was excited to start.
There was a little worry in the air because Lisa’s make-up person showed up an hour and a half late (!), so she was running behind, but when she did arrive, she looked beautiful. Stressed, but beautiful. As soon as she saw Tim though, I could see all the weight leave her shoulders, and she just beamed at him. They stood together and looked deeply at each other throughout, and seemed to be filled with joy as each moment went on. Soon enough they were kissing as husband and wife and everyone cheered! Congratulations Tim and Lisa! I’m so happy we’re practically neighbors, and that you go to have your moment. Best wishes always.
