Inside: OUR LOVE STORY THE BIG DAY MEET THE WEDDING PARTY

OUR LOVE STORY FROM BRIDE (KARO) TO GROOM (SAM) Through life’s wanderings, people have passed me by Never once sparing me a second glance My life was black, white and shades of gray Cold and colorless was the world around me I felt so alone and realize something was missing Until you came into my life Your eyes sparkled with joy I had never felt before Your smile lit up everything around me You opened my eyes, showing me the beauty of this world A world I want to share with you When I laugh, you laugh too When I cry, you comfort me When I fall, you are there to pick me up You understand how I feel You are sensitivity, endearing We are made for each other Two hearts beating in unison Since you came, I am not alone anymore The world has color now that it doesn’t seem so big anymore Overall, my life has changed for the better of course since you came into my life.

HOW WE MET BY THE BRIDE, KARO We met at work on August 12th, 2010 and we connected instantly. I can say that day was a God bless day for me!

We became very close friends and started within four months. I love everything about Sam, he is the most loyal partner, friend, brother and husband anybody can ask for.

He taught me how to love, he is very caring and overall patient, he always push me to bring the best in me, thus making me a better person.

It’s been 7 years of genuine friendship and love and I can’t wait to share the rest of my life with you, not just to my second half but also my best earthly companion.

FROM THE GROOM, SAM TO BRIDE KARO August 12th, 2010 was the day you revivified up my day.

I knew from that day forth that I did like to share my life with you. Talking, laughing and going through tough and difficult times with you has been 7 years of bliss. Putting my heart in your hands has been the best decision I ever made, which has made every part of my life perfect because of you.

THE PROPOSAL BY THE BRIDE, KARO

Sam proposed to me on a surprised birthday party in my house on 10th July 2015, and OMG! It was so beautiful! As I got to my house, I started seeing my pictures on the screen with music playing. Suddenly, Sam came to knee down with a ring! I was so surprised because I never suspected a thing! Out of confusion, I knelt too. Next thing I saw my friends and family members there out of the blues, like where in the earth did they all come out from that I couldn’t even read what was being displayed on the screen again. All of sudden, everyone wanted pictures of me with the ring, and was screaming in group, “he asked me to be his wife and I said YES! That day was so beautiful and memorable that I felt so special and forever grateful to God for the love we shared among ourselves.

THANK YOU Karo and I want to thank all our guests for taking the time to celebrate with us today. We are truly humbled by the show of love and support we have received from our families and friends not just today, but also over the last few months.

So many of you have helped with various aspects of the planning and I can say that our wedding would not have been nearly as beautiful without your help.

This is certainly a special day for Karo and I, and I hope that the support that you have shown us will continue, as we board in to our new life together as husband and wife.

Thank You to everyone that made today a memorable one for us.

Thank you all, safe journey back to your various destinations and God Bless.
