Life is full of coincidences—mostly minor but sometimes remarkable. During the wedding planning process you might encounter some funny coincidences, which you could try to find meaning in and ascribe to “fate,” or just have a laugh about.
For example, a friend of mine is getting married on the eighth anniversary of first meeting her fiancé. The funny thing is, they were not aware of that when they booked the date: they only realized it later!
We have experienced this ourselves in a couple of occasions.
The first coincidence is the church we are getting married in (yes, it’s a civil ceremony in a church). The name of the church is “Chiesa di San Giovanni.” The Italian equivalent of Mr. Caro’s name is, if fact, Giovanni (my friends often call him that!). So, we’re basically going to get married in his church…
The second coincidence is the Hotel La Vittoria, which is the hotel in Garda where Mr. Caro and I will stay for the wedding. After booking our room I sent the link of the hotel to my mom so she’d know where we would be staying. She replied that this hotel is the same place where, almost thirty years ago, we had my baptism luncheon. I could not believe it—I didn’t even know we’d had my baptism celebrations in Garda, let alone in that same hotel!
What do you think, coincidence or fate? Have you experienced any remarkable coincidences in wedding planning?
