Strike the wedding bells!

A South Boston couple’s romantic Italian ceremony will go on as planned next week, and the groom will be in attendance.

Donato Frattaroli is heading to the Boston Passport Agency for an appointment today, the North End native told the Herald this morning. He is set to pick up a new passport (hopefully), just days after his Golden Retriever puppy, Chickie, destroyed his old one.

U.S. Rep. Stephen Lynch’s Office confirmed with the Herald that it had been handling the case ever since Frattaroli’s fiancee Magda Mazri reached out for help from the congressman. A spokesperson said the office secured the appointment for the couple.

Frattaroli had previously told the Herald that he also had been in contact with U.S. Sen. Ed Markey. Local dog lover — PR guru George Regan — also assisted in the process. The story, first reported by the Herald on Friday, went national, with Frattaroli and Mazri appearing in a Monday segment on Good Morning America.

Chickie, short for chicken cutlet, chowed down the first four pages of Frattaroli’s passport and a few in the back, including a stamp from Mexico where he and his wife got engaged over a year and a half ago.

The playful puppy’s snack attack unfolded last Thursday night at the couple’s South Boston home, hours after Frattaroli and Mazri went to City Hall to fill out Intention of Marriage forms.

Before Lynch secured today’s appointment in Boston, the earliest Frattaroli could have been seen for a passport appointment was this Thursday in Atlanta. That would’ve meant a flight down south just for him to turn around afterward to board a plane to Italy in Boston on Friday.

Crisis averted! The wedding is set to go on as scheduled, Aug. 31, outside at the picturesque La Torre di San Marco, an old watch tower overlooking Lake Garda in Gardone Riviera, in northern Italy.
