Jennifer and Anthony met in February 2003 at a work related seminar. The relationship was meant to be from the very beginning. When the game of life threw its curve balls, Jen and Tony used the obstacles to create the foundation for which their relationship has become. They share so many of life's important values and have the sense of humor to deal with some hardships that fly their way.
Jen and Tony truly complete each other and they are so excited to begin the next phase of their lives, as husband and wife.

Jennifer Barba and Anthony Mendoza will exchange sacred vows in the company of family and friends on Saturday, August 12, 2006. The service will be officiated by Reverend Monsignor Salvatore Criscuolo, better known as: "Monsignor Sal", Pastor of the historic Saint Patrick's Catholic Church located in Downtown Washington, DC. Monsignor Sal will conduct the ceremony at St. Patrick's Catholic Church, located at 10th & G Streets, Northwest, Washington, DC. Monsignor Sal is a dear friend to the couple, having served as the Police Chaplain to both's respective departments. The St. Patrick's parish holds a special place in the hearts of Jen and Tony, this is the church that serves for National Police Week ceremonies.

Jen and Tony's reception will be held after their ceremony, at the Marriott at Metro Center's Ballroom. The cocktail hour will begin at 5:00 p.m. and the reception will begin at 6:00 p.m. lasting until 10:00 p.m.
Please feel free to keep the party going after the completion of the reception at one of the many downtown bars or restaurants.
