Pandemic Wedding: Love Conquers All, Twice!
9 Mar
Summary
- Couple met in a boxing class and had their first date there.
- Proposal occurred in Paris, two years after meeting.
- Wedding plans shifted from France to Connecticut due to COVID-19.
A love story that began in a boxing class in 2017 led to a unique wedding experience for a couple. Jesse first saw Emely at a Rumble group boxing class, and they connected shortly after, with their first date also taking place at the gym two weeks later.
Their relationship progressed, and Jesse proposed to Emely in Paris during a trip in 2019. This significant moment was captured by a surprise wedding photographer hired by Jesse.
Initially, the couple intended to marry in France. However, the global COVID-19 pandemic altered their plans, prompting them to hold a private wedding at a friend's home in Connecticut. The news of their union was kept private for a year.
In 2022, they finally had their second ceremony in France, fulfilling their original aspirations. This event was attended by a small group of close friends residing in the greater NYC area who were in quarantine at the time.
