Our Wedding

This story starts well before Becky and Taylor meet; their parents have been friends for over a decade before they even laid eyes on each other. Taylor's parents used to visit Zimbabwe and go on fishing or safari trips with Becky's parents. The two sets of parents often discussed the partnership, but both Becky and Taylor brushed them off, thinking they were just being parents. Through these visits, Becky got to know them quite well. She even stayed at their house in Devon, where she met some of Taylor's siblings. She did learn about the illusive twins but hadn't had the chance to meet them. Fast-forward to 2019. Becky's family visited the UK, and they were invited to an epic post-Christmas bash at The Luffman's house. This is where the magic happened! Becky was talking to Taylor's older brother when his youngest sister joined the conversation. Little did Becky know that she had been sent by Taylor to lure her away, as he could not possibly make a move in front of his older brother. However, Becky asked where these illusive twins were, and she had wanted to meet them. With great enthusiasm, she was whisked away to meet the twins. Becky and Taylor were immediately taken by each other; they talked nonstop. This did not go unnoticed by the party, and soon, everyone commented on the chemistry, including Becky's dad, who, on the first night, was discussing lobola (dowry) with Taylor—a fair price of a couple of cows was agreed upon. Since that day, they have been inseparable. They survived long distance through the pandemic, bought a house and travelled together. In 2023, they travelled to Australia, where, again, little did Becky know, she was carrying an engagement ring in a backpack for most of the holiday. Taylor insisted that they stop for a walk in a rainforest. Becky was slightly reluctant, as they were meant to be driving six hours South that day. The rainforest was beautiful; they stopped on a bridge. Becky, getting a bit fidgety, thinking that they would have to arrive at their destination in the dark, made a hasty turn to jump off the bridge and start walking back to the car. At this moment, Taylor was actually getting down on one knee and asking, "Honey, will you marry me?". Well, the scream that left Becky's body would ensure that nobody would encounter any wildlife on that path for a while.
