Our Love Story
First time we meet
The bride and groom met in a rather serendipitous way—he sent her a friend request that went unnoticed for a few months. Undeterred, he slid into her DMs, sparking a conversation that quickly blossomed. And the rest, as they say, is history!
First date
Their first date took place in Ottawa, starting with a delicious meal at a nice steakhouse. Afterward, they spent the day exploring the charming downtown area, strolling through its streets and taking in the stunning views. It was a perfect summer day, filled with meaningful conversation and unforgettable moments.
Proposal
From the very beginning, the groom knew exactly what he wanted. As their relationship grew, he waited for the perfect moment to make his intentions clear. When the time was right, he confidently asked for the bride’s hand in marriage, knowing they were meant to be together forever.
Engagement
The engagement took place in their home country, bringing both families together for a special moment. The groom expressed his deep admiration for a flower he had noticed in the Mutombo’s garden—one that had captivated him from the start. With heartfelt sincerity, he shared how much he desired to cherish and care for this flower, symbolizing his bride, for the rest of his life. That’s how, in April 2024, they officially became engaged, and now, their long-awaited special day has finally arrived!
