Gloria Estefan’s Wedding Sounds So Chaotic

Gloria Estefan is starring within the HBO remake of the traditional 1991 movie, Father of the Bride, however personally, I want to see a remake of Estefan’s personal wedding ceremony. The Latin music icon shared the story of her memorable wedding ceremony day in an interview, and let me let you know, it has every part. There are comedic, dog-related excessive jinks. There are drama and sacrifice. There are a shock twist and a jubilant pleased ending. There’s real love. This story is begging to be made right into a film. 

In 1978, Estefan was making ready to get married to her “one and solely boyfriend” Emilio, she instructed USA As we speak. However as a result of her father was unwell, the couple didn’t plan an enormous occasion after their small ceremony, solely a go to to her father within the hospital. However then…shock! 

When the newlyweds returned residence they discovered that their buddies had put collectively a shock reception for them with all of the works: catering, cake, deejay, and 200 company. “It changed into a full-blown occasion,” the singer and actor mentioned. She wound up getting cake throughout her gown, as one does, and bumped into the lavatory to alter proper as the primary dance was supposed to begin. 

“They mentioned, ‘The bride and groom are going to bop’ as I’m within the toilet with my wedding ceremony gown off as a result of there’s cake on the sleeve,” Estefan recalled. “I opened the window and yelled, ‘I’m bare in right here, I’m not prepared for that track.’ Once I did come out, my cocker spaniel ate the marriage gown sleeve for the cake.” That is the very best. I like this wedding ceremony. 

Till somebody pitches that family-friendly wedding ceremony comedy, we nonetheless have the brand new, Cuban twist on Father of the Bride. Estefan stars alongside Andy Garcia because the mother and father of the bride (Adria Arjona) mother and father, who determine to not announce their divorce in order to not spoil the marriage.
