Alex Wooten and Jelena Djordjevic' Wedding

Bill and I are very happy to announce the marriage of our son Alex to Jelena, his long-time girlfriend.





Here is the New York Times ad that Jelena had placed for publication this past Sunday, 8/12/2015

 
Jelena Zorana Djordjevic, a daughter of Zorica V. Djordjevic and Zoran B. Djordjevic of Boston was married Saturday to Alexander Jobst Wooten, the son of Ingrid Jobst-Wooten and William A. Wooten of Arlington, Va. Annie Winter, a friend of the couple who became a minister with American Marriage Ministries for the occasion, officiated at the Garden Pavilion, an estate in Sonoma, Calif.
The bride and groom met at the University of Pennsylvania, from which they both graduated magna cum laude.
In June, Ms. Djordjevic, 29, who is keeping her name, received an M.B.A. from Stanford. In October, she is to become a consultant on corporate strategy in the San Francisco office of Bain & Company.
Her father is a computer scientist who designs software applications at NTT Data, an information technology company, in its Boston office, and is a lecturer of computer science at Harvard. Her mother is a lecturer of mathematics and statistics at the University of Massachusetts, Boston, and at Roxbury Community College in Boston.
The groom, 30, is an associate director of corporate finance at SolarCity, a solar power provider, in San Mateo, Calif. He received an M.B.A. with honors from the University of California, Berkeley.
The groom’s mother is a real estate agent in the Arlington office of Long & Foster. His father retired as a special assistant at the Education Department in Washington.

A version of this article appears in print on July 12, 2015, on page ST15 of the New York edition with the headline: Jelena Djordjevic, Alexander Wooten.
