Angel Reda and William Henry O’Donnell III were married Sept. 21. The Rev. Richard Halvorson performed the ceremony at Holy Spirit Roman Catholic Church in Overland Park, Kan.
Ms. Reda, 37, is an actress currently performing in the Broadway production of “Chicago the Musical,” playing the part of Mona, at the Ambassador Theater in New York. Just before the wedding, she performed, as Roxie, in the opening of the show’s national tour, in Kansas City, Mo. In November she begins previews for “The Cher Show” on Broadway at the Neil Simon Theater; she is covering the role of Cher’s mother in the ensemble. She graduated from the University of Cincinnati.
She is the daughter of Karen S. Reda and Jack M. Reda of Leawood, Kan. The bride’s father is a certified public accountant in Overland Park. Her mother retired as a director of Little Saints Day School, a preschool that was in Overland Park.
Mr. O’Donnell, 44, is an account director for new business in the New York office of Mackevision, a visual effects production company.
He is a son of Anne O’Donnell and Mr. O’Donnell Jr. of Winston-Salem, N.C. Until January 2017, the groom’s parents were Christian missionaries outside of Prague, supporting the development of a church and congregation in Nove Mesto, Czech Republic. His father is now a self-employed commercial cleaning services provider in Winston-Salem.
The couple met in 2007, when Mr. O’Donnell cast Ms. Reda, sight unseen, in an online advertisement. He had told a friend that he needed to find “the most beautiful girl in the world,” Mr. O’Donnell recalled, “and he said you need Angel.”
The two were friends for years, Ms. Reda said, and then one evening, in 2015, when they were having dinner, she realized: “He looked at me from the inside out instead of the outside in. He loved me on the inside first.”
