How/where/when did you meet – and what were your first impressions?
We met on a dating website 10 years ago and following our first date at a local wine bar I decided although he was very handsome and charming, we did not have enough in common to go forward and informed Sean this by email, much to his dismay!
We wanted to stand strong in our values on our wedding day while also paying respect to our families by celebrating Tongan tradition, as well as Tyler’s heritage. Our future children will be half Tongan, so it was important for us to choose which traditions we wish to bring forward and which we wish to leave behind
Cezary and I are both Canadians living in Berlin. We’ve been together for so long that we feel like we grew up together. We’re in a place where nothing the other says sounds crazy or impossible.
