VOWS: Joey Michelle Macari & Wesley Quinzani

Joey and Wesley first met at a very cool watering hole in Boston’s North End, The Flamingo. The two laughed immediately when Wesley questioned whether “Joey” was really her given name and asked to see her driver’s license before believing it. The two spent the whole evening exchanging witty banter. In the weeks that followed, Wesley planned a series of thoughtful dates around the city. Despite coming from very different Italian families—Joey from a large, traditional Stamford family and Wesley jokingly “Italian by name only”—the two quickly found common ground.

Just over two years later, Wesley proposed at Castle Hill in Newport, Rhode Island, one of Joey’s favorite places. Less than a year after the proposal, the gorgeous couple returned to Newport to marry. They celebrated with a Catholic ceremony at the Church of Jesus the Savior, followed the next day by an outdoor ceremony and tented waterfront reception at The Bohlin. One of the weekend’s most memorable moments came as an army of nieces and nephews made their way down the aisle before the couple exchanged vows overlooking Newport Harbor.

The bride, daughter of Michael and Sally Macari of Stamford, graduated from Trinity Catholic High School and Providence College. Joey works in social media and is a contributing writer for Moffly Media.

The groom, son of Rob-Roy Quinzani and Julia Chuslo of Duxbury, Massachusetts, graduated from Duxbury High School and Middlebury College. Wes works at Cabot, Cabot & Forbes in Boston.

The couple honeymooned throughout Italy and now reside in Boston’s South End.
