Having spent a lot of time together, in and out of the café, Mario asked Alexandra if they could make their relationship official a few months later. A year into it, he gave her a promise ring. From that moment on, Alexandra knew that Mario was the man she would spend the rest of her life with. In December of 2015 on the beach of Turks and Caicos, Mario got down on one knee and proposed. The Ceremony | The traditional Jewish ceremony that commenced Alexandra and Mario’s wedding festivities was one of sheer opulence. Placed at the centre of the room, everyone’s attention was directed at a grand chuppah made with an abundance of white orchids and Plexiglas columns. Elevating the atmosphere and keeping guests entertained while they sat down was a violinist playing live music. The Reception | With a band flown in from New York City, guests couldn’t help but gravitate towards the dance floor the entire evening. For a personalized touch, Alexandra and Mario had the bar created with one of their engagement photos along the side. Beautiful surprises included the bride’s mother and sister singing an original song, and the Italian groom jamming alongside the jazz band on the accordion a couple of times throughout the night. Everyone loved it. 27
