Sarah says her relationship with Francesco was \u201clove at first swipe\u201d.<\/p>\n

The couple met on a dating app, and Sarah says it was like they had known each other forever. \u201cWe both left our date feeling, could this be the one?\u201d They were engaged three years later and began planning their classic elegant wedding for October 5, 2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlanning our wedding was an exciting and fun experience as we both came together with our ideas and created our special day,\u201d recalls the 25-year-old bride. \u201cWe wanted a modern wedding with some classic elements. With the help of Natalie at Bling Events, we created our \u2018all-white\u2019 theme with touches of gold.\u201d<\/p>\n

Francesco\u2019s grandfather died a week before the wedding at Doltone House<\/a>, but Sarah says his presence was felt. \u201cHe had dementia but always remembered the wedding and kept asking \u2018How long? How long?\u2019 He was watching down smiling on us both.\u201d<\/p>\n
