Michael Charles Foote and Bradley Stephen Sherburne were married Sept. 28. William J. Weiner, a friend of the couple and a Universal Life minister, officiated at Founders Landing, a park in Southold, N.Y.
Mr. Foote (left), 31, is a development director at N.Y.U. and is also a lawyer in private practice in New York. He graduated from Sarah Lawrence College and received a law degree from Tulane. He is also a volunteer lawyer for Safe Passage Project, a New York organization that provides legal services to immigrant minors who face deportation.
He is the son of Nancy L. Foote and Kevin D. Foote of Southold. The groom’s mother is a clerk in the public-works department in Southold. His father is an organizational consultant for the veterinary industry in Greenport, N.Y. The groom is also a great-grandson of the late John Constantinopoulos, who was a founding partner in Bungalow Bar, an ice cream brand that was sold out of trucks in New York.
Mr. Sherburne, 28, is an architect at Kliment Halsband Architects in New York. He graduated and received a master’s degree in urban design from Carnegie Mellon.
He is a son of Joyce L. Sherburne and Michael R. Sherburne of Windham, Me. The groom’s mother is an auditor in South Portland, Me., for Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, the insurance company. His father is an electrical planner in the Brunswick, Me., office of the Bath Iron Works, a ship builder and a subsidiary of General Dynamics.
The couple met in 2015 through the dating app OkCupid, and after a conversation online about Russian literature, agreed to have dinner together. “It was awkward and fun, charming,” Mr. Foote said. “We just sort of hit it off right away.”
