Stacey & Frank in St. Lucia, West Indies

Last-minute changes are no problem for Stacey Torjak and Frank Febbraro. In fact, that’s just how they met. Stacey was being set up with another guy, but that didn’t stop a mutual friend of theirs from inviting Frank as well, thinking they might be a good match. “After a few minutes, that blind date did not have a chance,” Frank remembers. He and Stacey spent the rest of the evening deep in conversation. The Bride Stacey Torjak, 28, web account director The Groom Frank Febbraro, 33, chief technology officer The Date December 1 After Frank proposed while on a trip to North Carolina’s Outer Banks, the two began planning a formal, winter wedding in Washington, DC. Once again, Stacey and Frank weren’t quite happy with their initial plans, so they decided to make a switch. The to-be-weds scrapped their wedding plans just four months before the big day and started from scratch, planning an intimate destination wedding on the beach in St. Lucia. With help from wedding planners on-site in the West Indies, Stacey and Frank’s wedding vision became a reality.
