Their story

1. They met

A cool winter’s morning in December many moons ago they found themselves walking into the same conference and getting themselves seats close by. Of course they did not know it then but that would lead them to conversation after conversation after conversation. They ended up in a Ross and Rachel type of story that soon led to the happiest event (their wedding) they could have hoped for.

2. They fell in love

She loved his mixtapes and he enjoyed her enthusiasm for K Dramas; he taught her how to use chopsticks and she promised to make cooker cakes for him. (She later made them and he loved it). In March when several planets got together to dance in a conga line ( no, seriously ) our protagonists thought it was time that they too got together. Soon their families met and they all decided to take things further.

3. They got engaged

Seven months ago they got engaged. (A big thanks to all of you who joined us that day.) It happened on a Sunday much like a lot of other eventful things this year. Around then they also chose the 30 ^th of December to get married because…why not? So here they are and here you are with them. Thank you so much for dropping by. Their story is just beginning and they’re glad to have you with them.
