Wedding In Jeopardy After Dog Eats Groom’s Passport

The planned Italian wedding of a Boston couple may have to be put on hold after their dog ate the groom’s passport. WCVB-TV reports that it has turned into a wedding nightmare.

Donato Frattaroli and Magda Mazri filled out their marriage paperwork at Boston City Hall on Thursday, two weeks before they were due to get married in Italy – and just days before they were planning to head to the country to start preparing for their big day. However, just hours later, their dog threw a wrench into their plans.

Frattaroli said, “Our extremely cute 1.5-year-old Golden Retriever decided that maybe she doesn’t want us to go away to get married. So she hopped up on the counter and decided my passport was a nice new toy to play with. Shame on me for not putting it in a drawer.”

Now the couple is scrambling to get Frattaroli a new passport in time for the nuptials. Mazri has been exchanging phone calls with Representative Stephen Lynch’s office in hopes of speeding up the process, she says. Meanwhile, Frattaroli has made an appointment to get a new passport – but the earliest one he could find is next Thursday in Atlanta.

“To be perfectly honest, I don’t think I would leave that office without one,” Frattaroli says. “The most important day of my life is coming up, I’ve got to make sure I’m there for it. It’s almost like the ‘dog ate my homework’ excuse but with slightly bigger ramifications.”

The month of May is the most popular month to get married, as 11 percent of all couples marry in May. As we welcome the summer and the beautiful weather that comes with May, we gathered what we believe are the top five country music songs for weddings.

There were so many country love songs to choose from as every artist in country music has their fair share of love songs. But these five songs rise above the rest in helping couples share their love on their special days.

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill - Such a beautiful love song that stands the test of time, just like Tim and Faith's marriage. "It's Your Love" became the first duet by a married couple to top the country chart since the inception of Nielsen BDS in 1990. No such single would top the chart again until almost 26 years later, when Kane Brown and Katelyn Brown's "Thank God" hit #1 in February 2023.

What a fantastic love song. Twain always sings this at her concerts. Shania wrote the song when she "drifted off" when she attended a soccer game in Italy that she was not interested in.

This song is written primarily for weddings. The video features footage from Smyers' and Mooney's 2017 weddings, including the grooms' first looks at their brides, the brides walking down the aisle, and the couples' introductions at their respective receptions.

This song is an amazing love letter to Thomas' wife, Lauren, who appears in the video. The video was shot on location on the North Shore of Oahu in Hawaii.

While there are many country music songs for a wedding, this one is a no-brainer. The song's official video features clips from Luke's August 2020 wedding to Nicole Hocking.
