“Our love story started at a time when we unknowingly needed each other,” the bride says. Heather, a respiratory therapist, and Joe, in his residency for emergency medicine, met in passing through work before sparks flew. Eventually, Joe messaged Heather on Facebook, which he refused to admit until their wedding day, and the couple hit it off on their first date.
Heather and Joe moved to Houston and went through Hurricane Harvey and Covid together, which solidified their bond. Joe included their two sons in his proposal. “Before Joe got down on one knee, he asked Drew’s permission to marry his mommy. I just about lost it. Of course, Drew said yes, and so did I. It was so special to have our kids involved in such a memorable moment,” the bride says.
The couple had an extravagant wedding on June 11, 2022, at The Astorian, beautifully captured by Ama by Aisha. Their grand reception was full of high energy and dancing, including a mirrored man at the Hora Loca.
The couple shared a few intimate moments. “After celebrating the night away with all our family and friends, we were able to share a last dance, just the two of us. Candles, our favorite song, and my new husband in our beautiful venue to end the night. Such a magical night that we will never forget,” the bride says.
