Our Wedding

Once Upon a Time...

...on the top deck of a Disney cruise ship sailing into the beautiful blue sea, a young woman named Maggie saw the most handsome man she's ever seen. His name was Marc. Their encounter was like a scene from a dream and as they danced under the starlit sky with their tequila sodas, they knew this was the one.

Soon, Marc left his home of South Africa...

...to be with Maggie in the bustling metropolis of New York City. There, in the city, Maggie's voice filled the air with melodies, and Marc's laughter echoed through their cozy apartment in Astoria Queens as they welcomed their first doggie Nelson into the home they had created.

But life's journey took them...

...back to the arid desert of Phoenix, Arizona, where they said goodbye to their beautiful Nelson. Through their grief and heartbreak, their love remained steadfast and led them to find two little puppies named Gertrude and Fred. They found their first house and once again created a new home filled with laughter, music and love.

Then, in the blooming gardens of Royal Palms...

...Marc knelt before Maggie, pledging his eternal love and beginning the next part of their love story.
