A lady who felt her previous marriage was \u2018doomed\u2019 from the beginning has finally had the wedding of her dreams after marrying herself.
\n77-year-old Dorothy \u2018Dottie\u2019 Fideli married herself in an unconventional ceremony after choosing to pledge herself to\u2026 well, herself.<\/p>\n
Talking about self-love, Dorothy stated that she was \u2018nervous\u2019 but \u2018eager\u2019 for the wedding at her retirement home, O\u2019Bannon Terrace.<\/p>\n
Dottie first married in 1965 in a quick courthouse ceremony, but she and her fianc\u00e9 divorced nine years later.<\/p>\n
In retrospect, she believes it was never meant to work out.<\/p>\n
She wore a black dress, so she was doomed before she even got started, she said.<\/p>\n
Dottie has spent the years afterwards primarily alone, constantly anxious that she was \u2018too late\u2019 to experience the wedding of her dreams.<\/p>\n
According to Dottie, she got the notion to marry herself when her neighbors recommended it to her after seeing something similar happen on a talk show.
\nThe mother of three said now she has a second chance to do something that will make her happy. She has been with herself for 40 years.<\/p>\n
Though she is committing to herself, Dottie is particularly thankful to her daughter Donna, who assisted in organizing the big day.<\/p>\n
Not only did Donna assist her mother in finding the right clothing for her mother\u2019s big day, but she also decorated the retirement home\u2019s common room, where the event was to take place, and prepared meals for all of Dottie\u2019s guests.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
