Jonathan Moscone, a son of slain San
Francisco Mayor George Moscone, married Darryl Carbonaro on Friday in
a ceremony held at San Francisco City Hall.
The mayor and Harvey Milk, the
city's first openly gay supervisor, were assassinated in San
Francisco City Hall in 1978 by Dan White, a disgruntled former
supervisor.
Former mayor Willie Brown officiated the
ceremony, which took place in the mayor's balcony near a bust of
Mayor Moscone, as roughly 80 guests looked on.
“Darryl is beautifully attractive,
extremely articulate and well educated and funny,” Moscone told the
San
Francisco Chronicle. “He never thought I was too intense
or too odd. I make total sense to him. That's how I knew – and
knew within two hours. Everything I said made him smile. I could be
myself with him.”
“I proposed at the bar of the NoMad
Hotel in New York in January,” he continued. “It was spur of the
moment, and I asked him to marry me by the end of the year.”
