Bonnie Hope Klugman and Robert William Romano were married July 26. Douglas J. Martino, a town justice in North Castle, N.Y., officiated at the couple’s home in Armonk, N.Y.
Ms. Klugman, 54, is a partner, specializing in executive compensation and employment law, in Becker, Glynn, Muffly, Chassin & Hosinski, a law firm in New York. She graduated from Cornell and received a law degree from Yeshiva University.
She is a daughter of Rita Rattner of New Rochelle, N.Y., and the late Michael W. Rattner. The bride’s parents owned Coram Bake Shop in Coram, N.Y., and Waverly Bake Shop in Farmingville, N.Y., and later M & R Bake Shop, which was in Melville, N.Y.
Mr. Romano, 60, is a lawyer in private practice in Armonk, and specializes in hospitality and State Liquor Authority matters. He graduated from N.Y.U. and received a law degree from New York Law School.
He is the son of Renate H. F. Romano and Samuel Romano of New York. The groom’s mother retired as the special events coordinator for the Council of Churches of the City of New York, a policy and advocacy organization. The groom’s father retired as a vice president of Marsh & McLennan Companies, the New York insurance concern.
The bride’s previous marriage ended in divorce, as did the groom’s.
Ms. Klugman and Mr. Romano have both lived in Armonk for more than 20 years, and she recalls meeting him for the first time when he knocked on her door. “He ran for office and he did come to my door so I could sign a petition, but we really didn’t know each other very well at all,” she said.
That changed in 2017, when both were at a gala for the Northern Westchester Hospital, and he asked her to dance. “We danced the first dance and we said we’re not going to stop dancing,” he recalled.
