Our Wedding

Kalla and Emmanuel’s meeting was a sort of new beginnings and soldering of fates. Unbeknownst to Kalla and Emmanuel at the time, what was a planned outing for one, and a spontaneous trip for another, became the beginning of a beautiful love story. Meeting one another over a pot of Sichuan HotPot was unexpected, but apparently her mad chopsticks skills were enough to reel him in. Kalla strategically got Emmanuel's phone number from their mutual friend. From there, they went roller skating, bowling, movie watching, and billiards playing. Little did she know what a seminal interaction it would turn out to reveal itself as. It seems as though they knew they would be together forever from the start.

I hope you like cherry blossoms. Depending on the weather, there will be lots of them. Check out the Sakura Matsuri (Cherry Blossom Festival), or just take a stroll and view the pink and white.
