Hi there,

I'm Aliya, and I am so excited to share our love story with all of you.

Our story began at a work Christmas party, where we first locked eyes. Antoine immediately captured my attention with his kind smile and calm demeanor, and soon after, I found myself charmed by his humor. We were both intrigued and eager to learn more about each other.

Our first date felt magical as we spent hours talking, discovering more about each other, and realizing that we were falling in love with each passing moment. We quickly bonded over our shared love for travel and cooking, and before long, we became inseparable.

In 2022, we bought a home together, away from the hustle of the city, and found ourselves falling in love with life on the farm. A year later, on Christmas Eve of 2023, Antoine proposed. With our dog wearing a bandana that read, "My Humans Are Getting Married," he asked me to spend forever by his side. It was a moment filled with love and joy, and I said yes without hesitation.

We were so excited to start planning our future, but soon after, we faced one of the toughest challenges we've ever gone through together—the loss of Antoine's cousin Lucas, who was not only family but also our best friend. It was unimaginable to think about our wedding without him by our side. We knew we needed to take a step back and allow ourselves time to grieve.

We leaned on each other, as well as our family, for support. We took each day as it came, and through it all, our bond grew even stronger. Knowing that Lucas is with us in spirit, we are finally ready to move forward and embrace the next chapter of our lives.

Our hopes for the future are simple: to experience life’s adventures together, cherish each moment, and grow old in love. We are incredibly grateful for the love and support we’ve received from all of you. We can’t wait to celebrate this special day and hope you can join us. Thank you for being part of our journey—we’ll see you soon!

With love,

Aliya & Antoine
