Destination Wedding in Stockholm, Sweden That Weaved Elegance into Every Detail
The Planning
Design / Vibe / Vision
The venues exude grandeur, capturing the essence of their love. Surrounded by bridesmaids from Harvard and high school and a best man who has been a constant companion, Martina, and Matt emphasized the importance of including people from all walks of their lives.
Proposal Story
Martina and Matt's love story is one of shared adventures and deep connection. They have traveled together, exploring the vibrant streets of India and skiing in the Austrian Alps, proving that their love transcends continents.
Their North London home is not just a haven for the two of them, but also a gathering place for their friends and family. They enjoy hosting dinner parties in their jungle-like garden, and their love for each other extends to a warmth that envelops those around them. They also have their favorite local spots, like a quaint bakery and charming pubs for Sunday roasts, which add a touch of familiarity to their globe-trotting lifestyle.
Their journey began with a chance encounter on a dating app—a virtual spark that ignited a connection leading to shared coffee dates and eventually, a lifetime commitment. The proposal, a blend of sentiment and humor, unfolded on the anniversary of their first date, with a necklace as a down payment on an engagement ring, hidden under macaroons.
But amidst all the excitement, their most cherished moments involve simply being together on the sofa, sharing laughter over TV shows or engaging in friendly backgammon matches. Martina admires Matt's caring nature and his ability to encourage her to step out of her comfort zone. Matt, in turn, values Martina's infectious laughter, openness, and kindness. Their love, seasoned with humor, has weathered life's ups and downs over six years.
