A Chat With the Bride From the Sixers' Draft Lottery Party Wedding

Some relationships last for 10 days, some are for a couple of years if you have a good agent and then some relationships - like Philly sports fandom - are for life.

Hopefully, the relationship that was sealed last night at the Sixers' Draft Lottery Party with a couple of "I Do's" is the latter.

Yes, a couple got married at the NBA Draft Lottery Party put on by the Rights to Ricky Sanchez podcast at Xfinity Live! Tuesday night and was officiated by ESPN's Pablo Torre.

Our very own Marc Farzetta caught up with the bride and the father of the bride prior to the nuptials and she seemed about as cool as Ben Simmons before a game.

Is this how she always saw her big day going down?

"Since I was a little girl, I've always dreamed of having Robert Covington at my wedding," the bride said.

And he was. RoCo was a special guest on the evening and received a lovely ovation from the crowd despite having a rough playoff stretch to finish the season.

The Sixers didn't win the draft lottery, instead, coming home with the No. 10 overall pick thanks to the Lakers, but it's safe to say this couple went home winners last night.
