The wedding took place at the church of Holy Street on 16th Street NW. After the completion of the marriage ceremony, they went to the Hay-Adams Hotel for the party via a vintage Bentley.

Around 200 guests attended the grand reception.

Overcoming Differences - How Did Craig Meet His Wife?

The couple first met in 2008 when both were fulfilling their respective assignments in Beijing during the 2008 Beijing Olympics for NBC4. However, their first interaction happened on air after they returned to the states.

After a month, infatuated Marvin was happy to attend a charity gala that she was hosting. Lindsay had invited Marvin along with other NBC colleagues to the event.

That night, they ended up kissing each other in the kitchen of her apartment. Lindsay was impressed with the way he behaved like a perfect gentleman. They had roamed the peaceful auction together, drove to the after party in his car, and he had even dropped her to her apartment.

When they reached her apartment, he asked her permission to walk her to the door, but she relented. However, they ended up kissing in her kitchen.

Things went casual for the next six months. But in April 2009, Melvin called her telling that he wants to take their relationship to the next level. Unfortunately for Melvin, Lindsay refused his proposal being aware of the consequences of work-romance relationships.

Her refusal made Melvin extremely unhappy. Thus, the period of separation began in their relationship. But soon, he started calling her again, and It didn't take them long to be good friends after they started talking about each other experiences, friends, family and the people they were dating.

Finally, in July of that year, they met for a drink at Bar Pilar even though Lindsay hadn't accepted his invitation at first. But she realized that Melvin was her soulmate after meeting him at the bar that night.

In 2011, Melvin thought that it was time to take the relationship forward. So, after a long weekend in Miami, he asked her to become his wife in a late-afternoon sailboat ride, and the rest is history.

Family Of Four: Welcomed Second Baby

They welcomed their first baby boy on 11th March 2014. The named their son Delano Joseph Melvin. In 2016, they revealed to the world that they will be welcoming yet another baby. Then soon-to-be mom of two Lindsay professed happiness about being pregnant.

And in November that year, Craig became a father of two after he and his wife welcomed their second baby. The pair named their second child Sybil "Sibby."

Initially, the name Shibby was a unisex shorthand that he and Lindsay had used to describe the prospect of welcoming a sibling to their son, Delano. Over time, the duo took a liking to the name and decided to keep it.

Unlike their contemporaries, the MSNBC reporter and his wife didn't opt to know about the baby's sex. Later, he revealed that he had wished for a daughter. Speaking after the birth of second child, Craig confessed to being overwhelmed with the task of looking after two kids. He said:-

"It’s a tad overwhelming, but we’re getting the hang of it. The worry for us, is that you love your little boy so much, when you have a second, are you going to end up dividing that love? Turns out you just multiply it. It really is amazing."

Could the married duo be open to having a third baby? The veteran MSNBC's statements certainly seem to indicate so.
