Domenica and Alfonse: August 5, 1962

My Mom and Dad, Domenica and Alfonse Saieva, were married in St. Leonard's R.C. Church in Brooklyn, NY on August 5, 1962.

Their wedding album was in a beautifully crafted box with an 8x10 image of my Mom framed on the inside cover. Photos were taken by Imperial Studio, Brooklyn, NY. The photos that follow are digitized from 10x10 pictures from their wedding album.

My Mom lived with her Mother and Father on Bleeker Street in Brooklyn.

The wedding ceremony was at St. Leonard's Church, Wilson Avenue and Jefferson Street, in Bushwick Brooklyn.

Wedding photos were taken at Imperial Studio in Bushwick, Brooklyn.

The wedding receiption was held at Saieva's Parkview Manor in Bushwick Brooklyn (at the corner of Knickerbocker and Willoughby Avenues). The catering hall was owned by my family and my Dad with his Father and Brother ran the business. We lived adjacent the hall on Starr Street.

My Dad was a very skilled Baker, Italian Pastryman, and a graduate of the Wilton School of Cake Decorating. He made and decorated the cake for his wedding.

The End.
