Some things really are meant to be.  Marissa & Joe are both nurses.  They both work at UCLA Medical Center.  That is where this storybook romance started.  Their wedding was the blending of cultures and families.  Their parents, Marissa’s daughter, Joe’s nephews, and all of their siblings, were active participants in the ceremony and festivities.  Both Rabbi Jerry Fisher and Father Norman Supanchek officiated during the ceremony which started with a ketubah signing and included a unity candle ceremony and breaking a glass.  You need only look at the joy in the faces of the family while watching to know what a success the ceremony was.

The reception was nonstop fun with a rigorous hora, one of the biggest challahs we have ever seen and dancing all night long.  Marissa & Joe’s wedding was just what a wedding should be…a celebration!  And we were happy to be there to celebrate with them.
