Erika VEH and Mark
KNODELL -- Match:
By Judith TENENBAUM,
Saturday,▼
August 20, 2005, Page M4
Canada Day, 1999: In a Queen Street East booth, as an enterprising
Erika VEH supplemented her regular income by promoting time-share
packages for a Collingwood resort, neither she nor Mark
KNODELL
could imagine that serendipity would have them sharing their
lives. Out with his buddies, he chatted briefly with her at the
booth before hesitatingly leaving -- he was immediately captivated
by Ms. VEH. "My
Friends said, 'She likes you!' Mr.
KNODELL says,
"and I thought to myself, 'Wow, she's a great girl. I really
like her.' We came back about 10 minutes later and I tried to
persuade her to give me her number but she wouldn't."
"I'd been through a lot of relationships and only been in Toronto
three months," Ms.
VEH recalls. "My parents taught me the safe
thing to do was not to give him my phone number, but to take
his," which she did.
Her brief encounter with Mr.
KNODELL would have remained just
that, but kismet would intervene when she returned home to Ottawa
for her father's birthday on July 2. There, her mother, Suzanne
VEH, insisted that the recent graduate of Barrie's Georgian College
in resort and hotel administration discard student paraphernalia
she no longer needed. As Ms.
VEH rummaged through material destined
for the recycling bin, she picked up an expensive textbook called
Fundamentals of Management that she had never used.
"I flipped it open, and I tried to place the smiling picture
staring back at me." Suddenly, in an illuminating flash, she
excitedly announced to her mother that the enterprising Halifax
fish broker described in her textbook had tried to pick her up
in the Beaches.
Back in Toronto, Ms.
VEH rushed to call him, but the shorts where
she'd stuffed his number had been laundered, leaving a blanched
scrap with only a vestigial 416. When the telephone directory
held no listing, she reasoned he must have been a mere visitor
to Toronto and had returned to Halifax.
Two weeks later, her mother visited for the weekend and over
a glass of wine tactfully queried, "Did you follow up with the
East
Coast connection?" Ms.
VEH explained she had been unable
to reach Mr.
KNODELL, and, in any case, was not interested in
a long-distance relationship. Yet, fate summoned her mother to
urge, "Call 411. Just do it for me." A listing materialized,
and with some trepidation, Ms.
VEH called him.
A voicemail responded, "You've reached Mark and Dominic, please
leave a message," and had her discombobulated, leaving hints
for him to remember her. Immediately Ms.
VEH realized Dominic
might be a woman. "I freaked out. Oh my gosh, here I am leaving
a message on a strange guy's answering machine and he's probably
living with a girl!"
That Sunday, on his return from a business trip in Finland, a
delighted Mr.
KNODELL dashed to call Ms.
VEH, explained Dominic
was a male roommate, and they arranged a rollerblading date mid-week.
"I looked over at Erika and thought, 'What is this girl doing,
no padding, no helmet, going way too fast down the hill?" Mr.
KNODELL says.
"The brakes on my roller blades weren't working. I was trying
to impress Mark and didn't want to scream. I basically took out
someone's sprinkler system," she remembers. Before she crashed
into the house, "a chivalrous, Mark swooped me up." That, she
notes, was her first and last sortie into rollerblading. Later,
on a boardwalk bench, they chatted the night away, rapt in each
other until 4 a.m. "Both of us didn't want it to end, but by
dawn work was beckoning," Ms.
VEH says. She had explained the
serendipitous nature of her quest to locate him, and the role
of her textbook, as he listened in disbelief.
In 1992, Mr.
KNODELL, 32, and a former winner of a Youth Entrepreneur
Award of Merit, was interviewed and photographed for inclusion
in a proposed marketing text. "For me, the craziest thing was
the book. They promised me a copy, but I moved, never got it,
and forgot about it."
Lured by the opportunity in Toronto, the 1995 Saint Mary's University
graduate had moved his business, Continental Connections, from
the Maritimes about 18 months before meeting Ms.
VEH, 29. Also
drawn to Toronto, she had found work with a recruitment firm
and then moved to advertising sales.
The committed couple pooled their resources in 2001 to purchase
a home in the Beaches. On the premise that a dog was requisite
for "in group" membership in the neighbourhood, they were joined
by Rupert, a Boston terrier.
By April of 2004 the pair had moved to a second Beaches home,
and Ms. VEH had switched career paths to take the real-estate
licensing course. When she successfully completed phase one on
July 19 of last year, Mr.
KNODELL suggested they celebrate over
dinner. In a small, candle-lit private room, his odd behaviour
had her wondering, "like most women what was wrong? What did
I say?"
However, constrained by the table and squeezed into the corner,
he was struggling to kneel and open a ring box. "Of course I
said yes, and was shaking and crying," Ms.
VEH says.
The wedding was Victorian, vintage and simple. On July 10, at
dusk, the bride, in her mother's original gown, reworked by Kathy
COOPER of Urban Bride, floated down an aisle draped with peony
balls elevated by seven-foot shepherd rods to a stone outdoor
altar at Vaughn Estate where Reverend Gordon
KUSHNER wed the
couple. Classic touches included violins, Kir Royal, and, acknowledging
Ms. VEH's family heritage, a Danish cone-shaped cake with multiple
marzipan-filled, cookie-like pastry layers, tiny Canadian and
Danish flags on each.
"I feel like something bigger was in control, something bigger
than us," Ms.
VEH says.

CORDEIRO m@ca.on.york_county.toronto.globe_and_mail 2005-11-19 published
Edward Manuel
CORDEIRO and Noelia Maria
JOAQUIM -- Match:
By Judith TENENBAUM,
Saturday,▲▼
November 19, 2005, Page M5
The kinks in the once-budding relationship between Nelly
JOAQUIM
and Ed CORDEIRO were merely bookends to their rediscovery after
26 years apart.
They had both arrived in Toronto as young children from Portugal.
By their teens, he was an M.V.P. football player at Parkdale
Collegiate Insitute, and she attended West Toronto Secondary
School. When she was confronted by the ultimate crisis -- no
date for her 1977 prom -- her cousin Lydia recruited Mr.
CORDEIRO
for what would play out like an episode of Happy Days.
"I got dressed up in this long, gorgeous, sexy red gown, [and]
drove with my cousin and her boyfriend [future husband] Joe
MELO
in his Camaro over to Ed's place," she recalls.
Ed had played football, gone out for a few with the boys, and
was lying down for a nap. Bedraggled, he showered and the quartet
floored it to the Park Plaza Hotel, arriving late. "They set
up a folding table for us smack in the middle of the dance floor,"
Ms. JOAQUIM recalls. "I didn't know if that was to embarrass
us." If not, the table collapsing and depositing Mr.
MELO's dinner
in his lap sufficed.
Ms. JOAQUIM, now executive assistant to the president of Holt
Renfrew, says: "Ed was good-looking, a nice guy, not the macho
type, but my parents were strict and I was not allowed to date."
Using his sister as a go-between, Mr.
CORDEIRO managed a handful
of dates with Ms.
JOAQUIM until she went abroad for a month.
"I sent him a postcard, which he just found among his memorabilia,"
she says. "We're not sure to this day why we didn't reconnect."
During the intervening years, each followed a distinct path of
marriage, family and divorce. It was Mr.
MELO, their lifelong
mutual friend, who served as a catalyst when he invited the pair
to his pool party.
"I'm not a matchmaker," Mr.
MELO says. "I didn't tell anyone
in case it didn't work out, but I felt they had so much in common."
The party fell on the day of the blackout of 2003, and Ms.
JOAQUIM
was almost a no-show, hesitant to leave her children alone. She
set out when the lights came on, not knowing her football hero
would be there. "His blond hair was grey, he had a grey mustache,
and I didn't recognize him until he smiled, and I thought, 'Oh
my God, that's Eddie!' " she says.
"I felt the sparks and the magic," says Mr.
CORDEIRO, 48. "It
was an amazing evening."
But Ms. JOAQUIM had emerged from tattered relationships and admits
she was mired in doubt. "I needed someone who would treat me
as an equal," she says, "love me for who I am, not someone they
wanted me to be."
Mr. CORDEIRO, who runs his own technology business, sought "that
multidimensional relationship where you connect on all levels,
and you are stronger as a team than individually."
Within two weeks, he had hurdled her barriers and professed his
love. "The words just came out of my mouth and I was shocked,"
he says.
Their families met a month later, sharing travel and adventure
over the next year. That November, as the two were celebrating
Ms. JOAQUIM's 45th birthday at her favourite restaurant, Auberge
du Pommier, he proposed with a poem and a diamond nestled in
petals of a white rose.
The bride's vision of a tropical destination wedding was trumped
by family practicality, but they transformed Sunnyside Pavilion
into a Polynesian paradise. There, they recited personal vows
on August 26 before Reverend Robert
BUCKLEY.
The attendants were
the couple's children: maid of honour Melanie
JOAQUIM, 21, her
brother Jeffrey, 16, best man Adam
CORDEIRO, 18, and his sister,
Megan, 16.
"When my mother reconnected with Ed, I knew he was going to be
part of our family, and [I knew] that my mom had fallen in love
with him even before she did," Melanie
JOAQUIM says. "She just
radiated a different kind of happiness."

CORELLI m@ca.on.york_county.toronto.globe_and_mail 2005-07-23 published
Sandra CORELLI and Michael
NIGRO -- Match:
By Judith TENENBAUM,
Saturday,▲▼
July 23, 2005, Page M4
Sandra CORELLI didn't have a prolonged quest for the author of
a message in a bottle that had apparently washed up near a rocky
pile on the beach. "I said, 'Someone must have had a romantic
evening here,' " she recalls.
Her boyfriend, Michael
NIGRO, had gingerly picked up the bottle,
extricated a piece of weathered-looking parchment and handed
it to her. The enclosed note was a chronicle of milestones in
the couple's relationship, saying at the end: "... long walks
on the beach, plus this long walk... equals a lifetime to look
forward to." Then Mr.
NIGRO dropped to one knee.
"I'd written it about a week before and burned the edges," chuckles
Mr. NIGRO, who confessed to his new fiancée that his cousin and
fellow conspirator, Rawl
FURMAN, was clandestinely filming the
theatrics, having earlier planted the bottle in its designated
place.
"I don't enjoy being on video and wanted them to turn off the
camera, but they kept going," she remembers. She was initially
perturbed by the intrusion on their intimate moment, but she
now confesses, "Michael is extremely funny, and always making
me laugh. Now, I'm happy because I have it, [the proposal on
video] and it will last."
Blissfully, the couple spent much of their leisure time at Mr.
NIGRO's family cottage on Bluewater Beach north of Wasaga, where
beach walks were routine and they kicked things up with Friends
and family playing volleyball, soccer and football.
On this particular September 28, 2003, weekend, a family group
of about 30 had gathered for their annual homemade pasta day.
"I could think of no more appropriate place," Mr.
NIGRO says.
"Of course, the first thing I did was ask Sandra's parents' permission,
but my cousin Rawl and father were the only ones [in my family]
who knew I was going to propose," he laughs.
The hardest part was for Ms.
CORELLI's younger sister, Jennifer.
Caught up in the romance of giving her input to help him design
the ring, she managed to keep the marriage proposal a secret.
It was on a boat cruise during frosh week in September of 1996
that Ms. CORELLI, in her first year at the University of Toronto,
met Mr. NIGRO, a York University student who was on board with
his Friends. The two had chummed with their individual groups
of pals since their early teens. After the cruise, the groups
combined to form a nucleus of about a dozen who kept regular
company, with Ms.
CORELLI and Mr.
NIGRO charged with event planning.
"Sandra and I were the main contacts and would arrange everything.
We went for dinner, dessert, drinks, to nightclubs, skating at
Nathan Phillips Square, and around Oscar time we'd see all the
nominated movies," he says.
Time and proximity soon had a magnetic effect. "Out of the entire
group we became the tightest, and got along well on all levels,"
Mr. NIGRO says.
In February, 1998, while Ms.
CORELLI vacationed in Mexico with
her Friends, Mr.
NIGRO felt an emotional void. On her return,
she surprised him with what he deemed more than a friendly effort
for his birthday, a handmade card and truffle. A beguiled Mr.
NIGRO notes, "We figured out we were crazy about each other around
the same time." By March, they were a couple.
Each from traditional Italian families, they accepted a long
courtship as the norm. "We didn't want to get married while we
were in school and wanted to be at a certain point in our careers
and lives," he asserts.
After graduating from University of Toronto in employment relations,
Ms. CORELLI launched a corporate career in human resources and
Mr. NIGRO, a graduate from York's Schulich School of Business,
found his niche in provincial public service.
On June 4, Reverend Eugene
FELICE, who had baptized Mr.
NIGRO, and
wed his parents, officiated as 400 guests observed from the pews
of Saint Margaret Mary Roman Catholic Church in Woodbridge. A reception
followed at the Terrace Banquet and Convention Centre. There,
Mr. NIGRO's best man, best friend and confidant -- his father
-- delivered an impassioned speech about his late wife, who had
died when their son was a child, and then presented a treasured
heirloom, her ring, to the astonished bride.
The couple, both 28, "are at our best when we have Friends and
family around us. The foundation of our relationship is built
on a strong Friendship," Ms.
CORELLI observes, "and I think that's
what makes it great."

Christine Mary
SHALABY and Michael Donohoe
KILBY -- Match
By Judith TENENBAUM,
Saturday,▲
October 29, 2005, Page M6
Emerging lawyers Christine
SHALABY and Michael
KILBY could argue
a case for their relationship either way. If common interests,
lifestyle and family values are the ties that bind, the pair
share a virtual bounty; yet the paradox that opposites attract
also fits their parameters.
Their families are complementary: Stocked with teachers and engineers,
as well as twins -- including Mr.
KILBY. And Ms.
SHALABY, whose
parents had emigrated from Egypt more than three decades ago,
was born in St. Joseph's Hospital, as was the father of Mr.
KILBY,
who is of Scottish descent. Furthermore, Mr.
KILBY's mother,
Helen DONOHOE, remembers of her son, "As a child, Michael's burning
ambition was to be an Egyptologist; he still treasures his King
Tut pencil case." And, she adds, "Christine, with an ear for
languages, has studied and perfected subtle Scottish regional
accents."
In the Honours Arts and Science program at McMaster University
in 1999, living with housemates off campus, the pair seemed polar
opposites. "I'm a bit of an introvert, quite quiet," Mr.
KILBY
says. "Christine had no trouble standing up in school and singing
an impromptu song, or talking to anyone randomly on the street.
I wouldn't be so bold. She was someone very different from me
[whom] I was attracted to."
"Mike is a good listener, extremely intelligent, always has another
angle, and new insights, not ever predictable, which is exciting
for me," notes Ms.
SHALABY.
With a first kiss in March of 2001, their Friendship veered into
romance. Concerned things might spiral out of control, they moved
into different residences. "I did not feel it would be appropriate
for us to live together and continue seeing each other," Ms.
SHALABY says. "We are both fairly traditional people with a sense
of propriety."
Upon graduation the next year, he began law school at the University
of Toronto and, before eventually following suit, Ms.
SHALABY
chose a year's sojourn at her parents' Mississauga home. "I was
a bit of a tourist, visited Europe, relatives in Egypt, and improved
my spoken Arabic at [Cairo's] Kalimat School," she says.
"E-mail correspondence, where you can be very honest because
you are not face to face, probably prompted us along," she admits,
but she still managed to rendezvous with Mr.
KILBY. "We visited
by car, train, subway, and knew a lot of different routes to
get to each other. We had a lovely year."
About that time, the pair began earnestly attending Walmer Road
Baptist Church. "This is not a dogmatic, conservative church,"
Ms. SHALABY says. "It's more liberal and welcoming. There is
a lot of diversity in belief, culture and age." It appealed to
her Presbyterian and his United Church sensibilities.
Touring Scotland in June, 2003, was pivotal for the pair, who
are now 25. "I visited and met Mike's relatives and stayed with
his grandparents in Edinburgh," Ms.
SHALABY recalls. "We had
talked about getting married, but I think that probably sealed
it for us."
When Mr. KILBY took Ms.
SHALABY to visit the Power Plant gallery,
she was hopeful: "He was fidgeting in his pocket and I thought
for sure this was it." When he produced his wallet, her heart
sank.
The gallery featured a John Kormeling installation, Mobile Fun
-- a working, 30-metre Ferris wheel constructed to carry passengers
in one of four mounted Saab automobiles. Over a couple of circuits,
their auto and his courage soared. He produced the engagement
ring, designed by Christian
HASLER of Yorkville. "We came on
as two single people, and got off engaged," Ms.
SHALABY says.
On hearing the news, his fiancée's tightly knit phalanx of relatives
humorously asked Mr.
KILBY whether he had seen My Big Fat Greek
Wedding. "It would be a useful primer for what lay ahead," laughs
Mr. KILBY, slightly taken aback by the grandeur of wedding preparations.
"I ended up making a chart of Christine's family and kind of
knew who people were before I shook their hand."
On August 13, at Walmer Road Baptist Church, a piper greeted
the 270 attendees. The pastoral officiants, Steve and Buff
COX,
greeted bridesmaids in eggplant dupioni silk cocktail dresses
belted and hemmed in lime green, groomsmen in tuxedos with lime
ties, the kilted bridegroom, best man, and the bride, gowned
in an ivory silk Valencienne creation wearing pearls like an
inverted pyramid. Three-year-old ring bearer Lucas
GRUBB, from
Edinburgh, handed a traditional horseshoe to the couple to capture
good luck. Classical organist Imre Olah provided background music.
Then at the register signing, Mr.
KILBY's brother Scott, lead
singer with the rock band Zeitgeist, sang David Francey's Come
Rain or Come Shine, accompanied by piano and guitar.
The Liberty Grand reception livened up as Scotsmen -- many in
kilts for the first time -- craned their necks at women, including
the bride, gyrating with belly dancing moves during the Arabic
music mix. Mr.
KILBY was handed a cane and, prompted by his new
wife, attempted the Saiidi dance.
Winner of McMaster's Hurd Medal for the highest mark in undergraduate
economics, Mr.
KILBY is articling at Stikeman Elliot LLP. Ms.
SHALABY, who will finish her law degree this year, volunteers
at the Barbara Schlifer Commemorative Clinic for women survivors
of violence. "It's nice to be able to use law in a meaningful
way," she says.
It is also, perhaps, a hint of their future. "We don't know where
we will end up or what we will do," Ms.
SHALABY says. "But we
hope we'll end up as a family making a meaningful contribution."
