Why Did Jenni Farley and Zack Carpinello Have Two Weddings?
The couple told People that their New Jersey celebration at Madison's was designed for loved ones who could not travel to Italy. "We gathered with our close friends and family in New Jersey, while our celebration in Italy was a more intimate experience for us," they said in an interview published August 19.
Farley, 41, explained that the Italian ceremony was about sharing a private, meaningful moment with Carpinello, 31. His family is from Italy, so celebrating there felt uniquely personal. The pair wanted a celebration that felt entirely their own—and said they achieved exactly that.
