How Sweet Is This Twist on a Wedding Tradition?

For her wedding, Marin Ruscitti wanted to find a special way to honor her grandmothers, Nanny (Jane Corrigan) and Grandma (Patti Anderson), who played significant roles in her life. Marin decided to have a “first look” moment with both of them before the ceremony. When Marin walked into her Nanny’s room, she immediately felt at ease, and seeing her in her wedding gown brought tears to her grandmother’s eyes. Later, when her Grandma arrived, memories of their past adventures flooded back. Marin incorporated her Grandma’s wedding headpiece into her own veil, symbolizing their shared love stories. The moment was a meaningful demonstration of Marin’s appreciation for the strong bond between her grandmothers and their lasting friendship. The emotional first look brought laughter, tears, and hugs, as Marin’s grandmothers expressed their love and joy for her. The special moment was captured beautifully by Harper Pictures at the Ace Hotel Brooklyn. Do you have a special first look story from your wedding day? Share in the comments below.
