For their Garden City Hotel wedding, this couple paid homage to their fathers.

Alyssa and Matt both lost their dads at a young age. It was something they bonded over at the beginning of their relationship.

The bride had the number "143" present throughout the day ("143" means: I love you). It was on the sewn into her veil, wedding cake, and as a gobo on the dance floor. Those numbers were present throughout the wedding to show love and respect to Alyssa's dad.
