A Chicago Wish
On March 11, 2022, Lissette and Carlos stood before loved ones to renew their vows after ten years of marriage.
Carlos and Lissette first met when they were just 12 years old in elementary school. They used to pass notes back and forth to each other but never really talked. They ended up getting to know each other in 8th grade but didn’t start dating until their junior year. After high school, Carlos went away for college, but the two stayed together and were married at a courthouse right out of college.
We loved meeting this adorable family and were honored to grant their wish for a vow renewal.
We’ve teamed up with our Kirsten and Olivia at Olive Fine Weddings and Events and were blown away by the gorgeous day that they planned.
A Chicago Love Story
On March 11, 2022, Lissette and Carlos will gather with family and friends to renew their vows after nearly ten years of marriage.
Carlos and Lissette first met when they were just 12 years old in elementary school. They ended up getting to know each other in 8th grade but didn’t start dating until their junior year. After high school, Carlos went away for college, but the two stayed together and were married at a courthouse right out of college.
A few into their marriage, Lissette started experiencing some pain in her jaw. Over time though, Lissette’s pain grew so acute that it started affecting every part of her life. Finally, at the behest of Carlos, she went to see a jaw specialist. Lissette was diagnosed with a rare form of sarcoma. She underwent an incredibly complicated 16-hour surgery to have the tumor removed and her jawbone rebuilt.
Lissette and Carlos are excited to renew their vows and to finally have the wedding they have always dreamed about. We’ve teamed up with our dear friends Kirsten and Olivia at Olive Fine Weddings and Events and are thrilled with amazing group of wish granters that they have brought on board.
