Vinny and Nikki met through mutual friends, Alisa and Anthony and our mothers. Alisa and Anthony went to high school with Vinny's parents, while Jean and Chris (Nikki's parents) knew Alisa and Anthony through their children. At any festivity that Alisa and Anthony hosted, Nikki's parents and Vinny's parents were always there together. Their mom's had always discussed setting up their two oldest kids -- until it actually happened in May 2016. Nikki went to Alisa and Anthony's daughters communion, where she met Vinny and Virginia (Vinny's parents) for the first time. Virginia was eager to show off pictures of her son, whom Nikki thought was extremely attractive! A few weeks later, Vinny graduated from college where he celebrated with family, including Alisa and Anthony. Alisa bugged Vinny all night about this girl she knew and how she wanted to set us up together. Vinny saw a picture of Nikki (from Alisa, of course) and sent her a text saying "Hi this is Vinny. So I think our moms and Alisa want us to get to know each other." And the rest is history! Here they are, over 7 years later, getting married.
