RACHAEL + DOMINIC STEP INTO THE LIMELIGHT | ITALIAN CLUB | TAMPA, FL
Rachael and Dominic met in 2013 while they were in their college marching band. They were in band together for two years prior to dating… and now, 8 years later, they’re married!
Because we just HAVE to share it, here’s how Rachael tells their engagement story:
“Dominic rented out a movie theater for the movie The Eternals. He told me that we were going to a theater in St. Pete for comfortable chairs. He asked me after we got into the theater before the movie started. My sister and parents were hiding behind the seats to surprise me.”
Rachael loves that Dominic is determined and straight forward. He will always be there when she needs him and be the support system that she can depend on. Dominic loves Rachael's passion for animals and love of life.
Throughout their wedding day, you could spot many birds, as birding is something that both Rachael and Dominic like to do together. From the details on their cake and their table signs, to their guest book, they tied in their mutual love for wildlife!
Their entire day was beautiful, set in the beautiful Italian Club, decorated with perfect touches of pinks and blues, and lots of celebrating in the form of dancing, drinking coffee from their coffee bar + eating gelato! Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Raia!
