Meet the woman who called off her wedding and married herself

A woman who called off her wedding and married herself instead has come full circle – tying the knot with her original fiancé and vowing to celebrate the anniversaries of both her nuptials, which fall just days apart.

Nicole Russo, 39, was delighted when Paulo De Souza, 35, asked her to marry him in October 2013, just over two and a half years after they met when he worked as a cleaner at her office.

Plagued by insecurity, less than a year later, the wellness centre boss, of Boston, Massachusetts broke off their engagement and on October 4, 2014, she married herself – reciting her vows into a mirror and even buying herself a ring.
