Our story ♥️
Our story started in Lake District, UK. A hiking experience that has united us for life. Despite knowing about each other's existence for years, it wasn't until the summer of 2018 that we actually got to know each other. Since then, we have remained inseparable, through the highs and the lows, taking it one step at a time. 6 years, 3 countries, 4 cities, and 8 home moves later, we are finally celebrating our wedding party!

FAQs
- Where is the wedding taking place?The event venue is Lago Event Park, Portofino Hall. The official address is MD-6814, Dănceni, Moldova. It is about 30 minutes away from central Chisinau.
- How can I get to the event?The easiest way would be by taxi! You can download the apps Hipcar or Letz for online bookings.
- Is there parking?Yes, Portofino Hall has a large parking area for guests.
- What about gifts?The biggest gift is your presence!
We kindly ask that instead of the traditional bouquet of flowers, you consider supporting The Moldova Project's "Stay in School" campaign.
You can do so by purchasing some school supplies (pencils, notebooks, rulers, painting sets, books) or a backpack for the children in need. In this way, together we can do good and provide some of the supplies the children need for the new school year! - Where can we book accommodation?There are a lot of hotels and apartments to choose from in central Chisinau. Some of these include Berd's Hotel, Nobil, Radisson Blu and more. We would also recommend checking out AirBnb and Booking.com for a wider choice of options and budgets. Reach out to us if you have questions about the location or any other concerns!
- What Moldovan traditions can we expect?Colacul Miresei: A traditional braided bread will be brought out for the bride and groom to pull on either side. Whoever is left with the bigger piece, is considered the head of the house! The bread will then be distributed for everyone to take a small piece. The bread signifies fruitfulness and luck for the new family, but also for each guest, because everything the bride touches purifies and becomes the bearer of luck, abundance and happiness ;)
Spălatul mâinilor la Nași: This is an old ritual involving a bowl of water, rose petals, a pitcher of clean water and a towel. The groom pours water on the godparents' hands, and the bride wipes their hands, following which the braided bread for the godparents is presented. This ritual is a sign of respect to the godparents, and the hands of the godparents should be clean because the bread, considered a symbol of life, purity and freshness, is to be received only with clean hands.
Dezbrăcatul Miresei: Following the bouquet toss, the godmother will remove the veil from the bride's hair, signifying the bride's transition from a girl to a married woman. The veil will be pinned to the hair of an unmarried girl, most often the one who also caught the bouquet.
