A New Jersey Wish

On January 31, 2022, Neil and Megha joined with family and friends at The Park Chateau in East Brunswick, NJ to renew their vows and to celebrate a love story nearly 20 years in the making.

In February of 2020, just before the pandemic hit, Neil started experiencing severe stomach and back pain. Initially he thought that it was acid reflux, but after his doctor ran several scans and tests, he was given devastating news. Neil was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer.

We connected with an incredible planner in Amanda Hudes of Smiling Through Chaos Event and Wedding Planning were blown away with the over-the-top gorgeous day that she created.

A Tribute to Ricardo

On March 21, 2022, Eunice and Ricardo gathered with their family and friends to renew their vows at the The Foundry in Brooklyn, NY. Sadly, this week, just five months later, Ricardo lost his battle with pancreatic cancer.

We were incredibly moved by Eunice and Ricardo’s story and were honored to help them renew their vows. We found a wonderful planner in Christine Viola and were overwhelmed with the gorgeous day that she created. From the breathtaking setting of our venue to the beautiful garden flowers, stunning décor and delicious meal, Eunice and Ricardo were treated to a magical day, surrounded by love. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room as our sweet couple recited vows to one another and were toasted by the family and friends who have supported them on their journey. Eunice and Ricardo soaked in the sunshine, danced with their son, and basked in the overwhelming love story they have written.

A Long Island City Wish

On March 21, 2022, Eunice and Ricardo will stand before loved ones to renew their vows and to celebrate a love that has persevered in the face of sickness and loss.

Eunice and Ricardo met on a dating website before dating websites were a thing. At the time, Eunice, who was only 17 and living in Chicago, began chatting with a young man named Ricardo, who was 22 and living in New York City. They were friends for 8 years before dating and falling in love.

In 2017, Ricardo began having some issues with his stomach. While many of his symptoms could be easily explained away, his condition continued to progress. Eventually, he sought the advice of a doctor. A test revealed that he had a blockage in his bowels. They were able to put a stint in, but an MRI showed a tumor in his pancreas. Sadly, he was given the devasting diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.

Despite the overwhelming pain and suffering that Eunice and Ricardo have experienced in the last four years, their love remains as strong as ever. We fell for this beautiful couple and are honored to help them renew their vows.

A Jersey Love Story

On January 31, 2022, Neil and Megha will gather before family and friends to renew their vows after 17 years of marriage.

Neil and Megha first met in 2003. Megha had recently gone through a tough breakup and was out with some childhood friends. As fate would have it, she ran into an old acquaintance who introduced her to his friend Neil. The two hit it off and ended up chatting for the whole evening.

As Neil and Megha began dating and getting to know each other, they soon learned about all of their many connections. Most notably, how Megha’s dad and Neil’s mom grew up in the same building in India! After dating for about two years, Neil and Megha were married and within a few years, welcomed twins.

In February of 2020, just before the pandemic hit, Neil started experiencing severe stomach and back pain. Initially he thought that it was acid reflux, but after his doctor ran several scans and tests, he was given devastating news. Neil was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer.

We have loved meeting this sweet couple and could not be more thrilled to grant their wish for a vow renewal.
