Gloria Estefan & Emilio Estefan, Jr.

Today’s couple met each other at a wedding.

In 1975, while studying at the University of Miami, Gloria Estefan (born Gloria Maria Milagrosa Fajardo), attended a wedding of a friend. At the reception, she was asked to sing a few songs with the band. Once she got on stage, she caught the eye of the keyboardist for the band at the wedding. The band was called the Miami Latin Boys and the keyboardist was named Emilio Estefan, Jr.

Within three weeks, Gloria had the joined the band as a singer. Three years later, the couple were married.

Their band, which became known as The Miami Sound Machine went onto fame and still tours together.
