Weijia Jiang and Travis Luther Lowe were married March 17 at Casa de Monte
Vista, an events space in Palm Springs, Calif. Jim Obergefell, who became a
deputy commissioner for marriage in Riverside County, Calif., for the
occasion, led a ceremony incorporating a Chinese tea ceremony.
The couple met at the College of William & Mary, from which each graduated.
Ms. Jiang, 34, is a Washington correspondent for CBS News, where she covers
the White House and Capitol Hill primarily for Newspath, the CBS News news
service affiliate servicing about 200 stations and affiliates worldwide; she
also fills in on the anchor desk for the CBS Morning News. She is on the
board of the Newhouse 44 at the S. I. Newhouse School of Public
Communications at Syracuse, from which she received a master’s degree in
broadcast journalism.
Ms. Jiang is the daughter of Liya Wei and Huade Jiang. Her parents, who are
retired, owned and operated Chinatown Restaurant in Buckhannon, W.Va.
Mr. Lowe, 35, who goes by Luther, works in Washington as the global vice
president for public policy at Yelp, the website and mobile application for
which consumers write reviews of local businesses and services. He oversees
public policy initiatives, including competition policy, consumer free
speech and open data.
Mr. Lowe is the son of Mary Hatfield Lowe and Robert M. Lowe Jr. of
Fayetteville, Ark. The groom’s mother is the director of the paralegal
program at NorthWest Arkansas Community College in Bentonville, Ark. His
father retired as an art teacher from Van Buren High School in Van Buren,
Ark.
Ms. Jiang and Mr. Lowe met in 2003 at college, and a year later began co-
hosting a weekly campus television show, in which they amused viewers with
their mismatched styles — she a serious news reporter and he a joking
political commentator. They became close friends, with Mr. Lowe determined
to someday move from the friend to boyfriend zone, and finally succeeded in
2015, after a fortune teller at a New York street fair had even predicted
they were destined to spend eternity together. | k*****5 发帖数: 2139 | |
