Wedding Day

We cannot wait to start our lives together, but one of our favorite things to do together is to travel the world. This registry gives our family and friends a chance to contribute to not only our future home, but also to our honeymoon (Bora Bora and Maui), and help make it the trip of a lifetime! It means the world that we get to share this moment with the people that mean the most to us —and that's the best gift of all! But, if you'd like to help contribute to our post wedding celebrations we would be beyond grateful!      We are registered at Bloomingdales and Crate & Barrel/CB2, as well as Honeymoon Cash Funds!

We cannot wait to celebrate with you all!!!   Love, The future Rappaport’s 🥰🍾❤️

Our Wedding

June 10th, 2023 - It all started at Pine Hollow Club, at the beginning of summer. Jordie had just finished a pick-up game of pickleball, when a conversation came up about her dating life. “Are you single?” she was asked by the group of women playing with her, to which Jordie replied “Yes!” After the game, Jordie went to the pool to say hello to her mom’s friends – Where the only topic of interest was the fact that she was single again. After being bombarded with questions about the type of man and relationship that she was looking for, Jordie said her goodbyes and left for lunch, only to be called right back by Linda Fishman. “Get your ass back here right now!!!! We need to talk to you!​“ she yelled back at her. Jordie immediately ran back over to find Linda, sitting alongside a blonde woman she had never seen before and who had BIG smile on her face. “This is Elyse Sloyer,” Linda said. “She has a son and thinks you two would be perfect together!” Here we go again.... Jordie thought to herself; excited, but nonetheless apprehensive. Elyse (of course) overheard the conversation and began describing her son, Brandon. She then learned that Jordie and Brandon were both obsessed with their nieces and nephews, both love sports, and have similar values. Ultimately, she knew that Brandon would be ready to settle down, but ONLY if he could find the right match. Jordie and Brandon​ connected over social media afterwards,​ ​until Brandon actually worked up the courage to ask her out for drinks. Their first date was at Raines Law Room, a speakeasy located in midtown NYC. They felt an immediate comfort that they had never felt before with anyone else, with conversations that flowed naturally. By date three, they had planned a fun-filled day on July 4th​; one that would pave the way for a relationship together. This date started at Treadwell Park on the Upper East Side, moved to Greenpoint for a Summer DJ Block Party and concluded with watching fireworks together. It even ended with Brandon and Jordie walking and talking for miles ​(through several boroughs). It was at this point that they realized they had something ​truly special, and they were beginning to fall for each other. The emotional connection continued to grow deeper from miles away, even when Jordie left for Portuga​l shortly thereafter. Nothing could keep them apart. When she came back from her trip, they couldn’t wait to spend more time together​. And from there, they both knew… this was it.​ Fast forward more than a year and a half later, Brandon had decided that on December 6th he was going ask Jordie to marry him. His elaborate plan included help from Brian and Jenn (brother and sister in law), who tried to throw Jordie off by making fake reservations at Casa Tua. And having Brandon and Jordie over for drinks prior to dinner. Brandon convinced Jordie to walk through the freezing cold, and towards the Columbus Circle Holiday Market to get a gift for Brian and Jenn. Jordie knew something was up when Brandon didn’t stop walking, continued into Central Park, and then onto the gorgeous Pine Bank Arch, where a photographer was hiding to capture this special moment. Brandon eventually got down on one knee and popped the question! She said yes, leaving them both in tears! Jordie and Brandon’s story continues on June 28th, 2025, celebrating their love at Pine Hollow Club.
