Central Park Elopement: Congratulations Louise and Simone

October 13, 2015

Louise and Simone eloped from the U.K. to get married in Central Park with an intimate gathering of friends and family. The joyful ceremony took place at the Ladies Pavilion.

Louise shares, “Simone and I met at work, he’s a paediatric cardiac surgeon and I am a nurse and I was working on the paediatric cardiac ward. He came to the U.K. in 2009 from Italy for a one year post in Great Ormond Street Hospital in London. At that time I had been working there for six years. We happened to live near one another and used to bump into each other on the tube on the way to work. We started out socialising as a group of people including other nurses and doctors. Toward the end of the first year, we started dating and so he extended his post for another year. Nobody at work knew we were together so when his next job took us to India for one year, everyone was very shocked that I was leaving! After spending a tough year together in India we knew we could cope with anything.

Simone knows I am way too fussy so for the proposal so he took me to Tiffany’s in Regent St, London, to buy me my perfect ring.

We decided to get married in New York as it’s our favourite city in the world. One of our first holidays together was to NYC. We both wanted a small wedding with only our nearest and dearest there so we decided that NYC was the perfect place. Central Park is one of the most beautiful places in the city so we wanted our ceremony to be held there. It was the perfect day and everything we could have dreamed.”
