'Pete & Pete' star Danny Tamberelli to wed MontCo native in Pennsylvania steel factory
All this, of course, after the couple first connected on Tinder.
Wedding bells are ringing for former Nickelodeon star Danny Tamberelli, and they're bringing him — and at least one other Adventures of Pete & Pete cast member — all the way to Pennsylvania.
Tamberelli, as Page Six reports, will wed fiancé Katelyn Detweiler in "an old steel factory in Pennsylvania, where the bride grew up," on May 5, 2018. Detweiler, the author of young-adult novels Immaculate and Transcendent, was raised in Marlborough Township and graduated from Upper Perkiomen Valley High School in 2004.
So, if they're staying close to home, that likely puts the lucky couple at the Phoenixville Foundry or the SteelStacks in Bethlehem, two former foundries in the area that host weddings. The initial report did not indicate the name of the couple's wedding venue.
The Brooklyn couple tells Page Six that 250 guests will attend the nuptials, and that Tamberelli's Pete & Pete co-star Mike Maronna (Big Pete) will serve as a groomsman. Tamberelli, who played Little Pete on the show, asked Maronna to be in the wedding in a recent episode of the pair's Adventures of Danny and Mike podcast.
All this, of course, after the couple first connected on dating app Tinder, as Detweiler told Page Six. The pair had their first meeting at a Brooklyn bar in what Detweiler called a "very fancy first date."
"I definitely had some friends in the lead-up to the first in-person date being like, 'What if it's not him? What if you're being catfished?,'" she said. "I was texting [friends] while I was sitting there debating whether to stay or not and I did."
Detweiler's most recent novel, Transcendent, was released in October 2016. Tamberelli, who appeared in '90s shows including All That and Figure It Out, currently performs in three bands, according to Page Six.
