Keely Crimando always had a special and close bond with her grandmother Dorothy Czartorski. She was very excited about the opportunity of getting married because of what it would mean for their relationship…

The wedding was set in October 2017 and people were stunned when they saw Dorothy coming down the aisle. It was not something they expected. The guests at the wedding were shocked at Dorothy’s outfit, not believing what they were seeing!

When Keely’s boyfriend Michael Crimando popped the question, she was very excited. She had known Michael was the one for a while, having met on a dating app. The first person she told about Michael being ‘the one’ for her was her grandmother Dorothy.
