Shantel and Jamison Espaillat had planned to get married at City Hall on Monday, more than two months ahead of Shantel’s Sept. 2 due date. But instead, they themselves in a hospital.
A young couple experienced “two blessings in one day” when they wed in a last-minute ceremony in a New York City hospital’s maternity ward, and then welcomed their newborn, just two hours later, in an unexpectedly premature birth.
The couple was faced with a dilemma. “We made a promise to each other to be married before the baby came,” Jamison told the New York Post. So the couple decided they wanted to wed as soon as possible, too. The couple recruited the Rev. Amy Strano, the hospital’s director of spiritual care, to officiate the ceremony, which was to take place in the hallway of Mount Sinai’s labor and delivery unit. Unfortunately, friends and family were not allowed into that section of the hospital, so hospital workers were happy to stand in as wedding guests — and wedding planners.
The one detail they couldn’t deliver on was allowing Shantel to don the white lace dress she’d looked forward to wearing on her wedding day. Instead, she’d have to get married in her plaid hospital gown — and Jamison would have to say “I do” in a set of white scrubs. Regardless, the couple was over the moon.
Yahoo Lifestyle has reached out to Mount Sinai for an update on the infant and his mom, who appeared healthy and happy in post-delivery photos. “He feels so amazing and warm,” Shantel told the New York Post. “I don’t want to let him go.”
