Yesterday at Gil Hodges Memorial park, er Citi Field, there was a first for the new ball park, which opened last season.
Yesterday, Franciso Caputo and Jacqueline Scotti were wed on the diamond of the ballpark of their favorite team: The New York Mets.
The couple had met 10 years ago while working at a Long Island restaurant. They dated five years before making their vows.
The blushing bride said, "We wanted something different, and it ended up being something really amazingly different because nobody has done it here before. Frank is a huge insane Mets fan ... and I am now too."
The couple, who were officially married earlier in the day at the Church Of Saint Aidan in Williston. They then took a white trolley to the ballpark. They had approximately 270 guests attend.
The Mets gave the couple a commemorative Mets jersey with the #27 on it. Not for Craig Swan, but because yesterday was March 27th.
Caputo is a groom with his priorities in the right place: when he proposed, he said, 'If you want this ring on your finger, you have to be a Mets fan.' My loyalty is to my fiance. So, whatever team he supports, I support."
