were introduced at a friend's barbeque on the Upper West Side. On our first date, we met beneath the arch at Washington Square Park. Our first anniversary was celebrated with an unforgettable dinner at Babbo. And then, on September 27, 2003, on the hill overlooking the Japanese Garden in the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, we were engaged to be married. Our story is a New York love story. Please join us in the city we love to celebrate our wedding.
