Sparks flew between Yevgeniy and Lisa at a quaint, trendy coffee shop a few steps away from NYU. It was the third time the two tried to meet, and as they say: third time’s the charm! It only took 45 minutes of Yevgeniy’s cryptography anecdotes and Lisa’s marketing tales for them to realize: this is it!

They spent the next year and a half traveling the world, visiting incredible places like South Africa, Paris, and Israel, as well as traveling locally to Lisa’s beloved Cape Cod. Together, they redecorated their lovely apartment near Washington Square Park and created a home where their love could flourish. On one of their later adventures, Yevgeniy proposed at the beautiful Japanese Garden in San Francisco right before Lisa’s birthday.

They enjoyed a wonderful winter wedding, which started, which began with a First Look at the Four Seasons Hotel in Boston, and concluded at the reception hall of the Temple Shalom synagogue in Newton, where the newlyweds listened to creative toasts and danced the night away, surrounded by their dearest family and friends.

We are happy to present the details of this spectacular celebration, which the spirited couple planned in less than a year, for 180+ guests from all over the world.
