Our love story

“The Vortex” is what we like to call it. A level at which synchronicity is ever present. We began as scriptwriting partners, slowly writing into existence much more than a movie script. Unbeknownst to me, my partner had recently written down 20 extremely specific things she wanted in a future husband. “It’s impossible. You will never find that,” a close friend told her. But with each writers meeting, I unknowingly fulfilled them. And discovered that destiny had a script of its own. It's an epic.

Three important details about our ultimate wedding.

Picture a burgundy colored baby grand piano sitting under a slanted oak tree. An antique chandelier hangs from one of the many branches, just above the piano. Bohemian tunes are passionately etched into the starry night sky. Each note acts as the perfect soundtrack to every bite of your mouthwatering french cuisine. We are foodies. And tonight's meal will be an absolute victory for each one of your five senses. Yes, food can be that! Now delight in a breathtakingly spectacular fireworks display.

Our ultimate dream home.

There will be a room completely dedicated to all of our memories as a couple. The keepsake room. Where the wall is full of paintings, letters and pictures of our time together. The kitchen will be amazingly huge and lined with turquoise tiles. As mentioned earlier, we are both foodies. Stepping into the backyard will be as if you've suddenly entered another country. A beautiful garden with brick sidewalks and Victorian lamp posts and a cozy hot tub, nuzzled amidst a gathering of tropical trees.
