EAST BRUNSWICK (1010 WINS) – A frontline nurse and her fiancé who is in remission from Hodgkin’s lymphoma were married at a small ceremony in New Jersey on Sunday after months apart because of the coronavirus.

New York-Presbyterian Hospital nurse Ashley Isaacs and Israel Reches tied the knot at a backyard ceremony in East Brunswick, broadcast on 1010 WINS and livestreamed on Facebook Live.

"We're over the moon, we're really over the moon," Reches told 1010 WINS' Samantha Liebman after the ceremony.

"I said that to her under the chuppah," Reches added.

As Isaacs was working to save patients with COVID-19 this past spring, Reches was battling stage 4 Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The ceremony was a joyous reunion for the two, who had only seen each other twice since mid-March over concerns for Reches’ health.

Before the ceremony, Reches showed off a custom tuxedo, the inset of which included a collage of photos of him and Isaacs over the years. Reches was wearing the special tux as the two of them shared their first dance

Congratulations to the newlyweds from 1010 WINS
