Fabiana Faria and Helena Barquet will be one of the lucky couples to marry in the sky. Faria and Barquet are New Yorkers and co-owners of a home design store on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. After dating for seven years, Faria proposed to Barquet at New York’s famed Plaza Hotel; both women are architecture fans and have long idealized the Empire State Building.

The first same-sex weddings at the 102-story Empire State Building occurred on Valentine’s Day 2012, with both a male and female couple exchanging vows.

The other couple chosen to wed on this year’s Valentine’s Day is Chitra Pathak and Nachiket Patel, a New Jersey couple originally from India.
