Our Wedding

April 18, 2025 ~ Chelsea was in Edmonton and walked into a stranger’s house with 7 of her family members in tow, apprehensive but ready to meet the man her uncle and aunt had been trying to set her up with for 4 months.&nbsp;Hyunki was busy in his kitchen preparing a Korean meal of bulgogi and homemade kimchi (the first green flag).&nbsp; After a comfortable evening of getting to know him and his children, Hyunki asked Chelsea out on their first date the following afternoon.&nbsp;They chatted over coffee for hours, then extended the date into a walk in the river valley. Even after saying goodbye, the date was extended even further by having him over for a meal with Chelsea’s family that ended in an intense game of Spoons.&nbsp;It was after this first 7-hour date that Hyunki knew Chelsea was the one.&nbsp; &nbsp;It took Chelsea a little longer, but surprisingly not that much longer, to come to the same conclusion.&nbsp;While attending a friend’s bridal shower a few weeks later, she leaned over to her sister and said, “I think I’m going to marry him.”&nbsp; All this seemed a little crazy (yes, even to them), but it only made sense seeing how God had led them to this moment.&nbsp;In December 2024, after years of trying to get back overseas, Chelsea finally found peace from God about surrendering those plans and settling into whatever He had for her here in Canada.&nbsp;A month later she felt God strongly turning her heart and mind towards pursuing marriage.&nbsp;&nbsp; It was at this exact time that God was moving in Hyunki’s heart, healing past hurts, prompting his own surrender of the future and preparing him to pursue a relationship. When Chelsea’s uncle approached him with the proposition of a single, godly woman in Regina that was open to meeting him, Hyunki praised God for hearing his prayers.&nbsp; Fast forward through the rest of 2025. There were long phone calls, several trips back and forth between Regina and Edmonton, lots of prayer for discernment and confirmation from those around them.&nbsp;God was drawing two hearts together, despite the long distance, preparing Chelsea and Hyunki for marriage and a life together.&nbsp;

Thank you for clicking on our registry page. God has blessed us both with so much already and we don't find ourselves in need of a lot. However, if you would like to bless us with a gift, a contribution towards our basement renovations would be sincerely appreciated as we build our home together!
