Andrea and Joseph
With a love story complicated by COVID-19, it is no wonder Andrea and Joseph opted for a wedding that was simple and stress-free.
“We love the pop-up wedding idea, the ease of planning, and the simplicity of just showing up. This concept completely takes the stress away and allows us to focus on the true meaning of the marriage.”
Andrea and Joe met in September 2018. They were both somewhat hesitant at first, as Joe was living in Malone, NY, and Andrea in Ottawa. However, they hit it off immediately and quickly realized that their lives were better together. Joe proposed about a month later.
When COVID travel restrictions between Canada and the US were put in place, the couple’s relationship was forced to go virtual. But finally in the summer of 2021, Andrea and Joe were married in a Pop-Up Ottawa Wedding. The couple chose the Pavilion Package which includes a ceremony at the beautiful Rockcliffe Pavilion, and full décor.
The wedding was a magical melding of two families and Pop-Up Wedding Ottawa was so excited to be a part of this special day. We wish the lovely couple nothing but the best!
