Sandra Tokic and Mark Filomeno have the sweetest way of recalling how they met several Decembers ago, while strolling West Hartford Center. Mark’s sister Madelyn can take the credit for introducing them, but the way Sandra remembers it is they were each other’s Christmas present because it was “love at first sight!”
Mark surprised Sandra with an engagement ring right after her pharmaceutical licensing exam in 2015 and they had fun planning a wedding at Saint Peter Claver and The Farmington Club.
The couple honeymooned in Hawaii (visiting Oahu, Maui and Kauai), and managed to celebrate Sandra’s birthday in Pearl Harbor and they also hiked the Napali coast.
Sandra’s parents are Vesna and Miro Tokic and live in Newington. Mark’s parents, Tom and Madelyn, are active in the West Hartford community, and the newlyweds decided to settle in We-Ha as well.

Interesting to see how the Jewish wedding “tradition” of raising the bride and groom on chairs has been absorbed into other traditions.
