Victoria Wakile and Teddy Kosmidis’ Wedding
The baby news came more than four years after Victoria and Teddy exchanged “I do’s.” The couple originally planned to tie the knot in September 2020, but delayed their wedding because of the pandemic.
Fast-forward to February 2021, when Victoria finally walked down the aisle at The Pleasantdale Chateau in West Orange, New Jersey. The bride spoke about her big day in an interview with E! News.
“Although this wedding may not look like others, it’s a joyous, fun, and celebratory safe event for all of us,” Victoria said, referring to the health and safety restrictions at her wedding. “While we have already pushed our special day once, we decided that moving forward in the safest manner possible was the best way to go through with our special day.”
