Our Wedding

Giana and Paul met October of 2021 as they both were attending a town event, The East Hanover Mayors Ball. They randomly walked into each other and didn't realize, that night would be the start of the best chapter of their lives. Since that night, they've been inseparable. It truly was the perfect time in life for them to come together! It was only a matter of weeks until they realized this was going to be a forever love. They quickly introduced each other to their parents and siblings, which was one of the greatest memories they have to this day. When their first anniversary approached, they started talking about getting engaged and planning their future together. Fast forward to March 29th,2024, Giana had the surprise of her life. Paul had his entire living room decorated (by Giana's twin sister Gabrielle and best friend Kristen) and he asked Giana to marry him. Since then, they have been planning the wedding of their dreams at the Venetian in May!
