Ms. Eng, 32, is a third-grade teacher at Public School 244Q, also known as the Active Learning Elementary School, in Flushing, Queens. She graduated from Barnard College and received a master’s degree in special education from Queens College.
She is a daughter of Hui Ling Eng and Dewey Eng of Flushing. The bride’s father is a housekeeper at the Four Seasons Hotel in Manhattan. Her mother retired as an assistant at the Yasmine Djerradine Institut de Beauté, a spa in Manhattan.
Mr. Tsang, 34, manages a multifamily building in Astoria, Queens, that he owns with his mother, Ailee K. Tsang of Forest Hills, Queens. He graduated from the University of Michigan.
He is also the son of the late Hogoon Tsang. The groom’s mother is a secretary and a translator at Public School 120Q in Flushing. His father retired as a mechanical engineering consultant from Lummus Global, an oil and gas engineering services company in Bloomfield, N.J.
The couple met at the birthday party of a mutual friend in 2013, and began dating a few months later, after Ms. Eng asked Mr. Tsang for a veterinarian recommendation for her West Highland terrier, as he also has a dog, a shepherd-hound mix.
The bride’s previous marriage ended in divorce.
