Our story
Maral and Armin's story began almost ten years ago at a lounge during an open mic night. Maral's friend knew one of the performers, who happened to be a friend of Armin's, and the two ended up sitting in the same area and talking that night.
A few days later, they crossed paths again completely unexpectedly. They both had separate plans that day, but at the last minute each changed their mind and somehow ended up at the same café at the same time. Looking back, it feels like one of those moments that was simply meant to happen. From that day on, they were inseparable.
Over the years, Maral and Armin have grown together and built a life side by side. They've been there for each other through moves, graduations, career changes, moving in together, difficult moments, happy ones, and everything in between. Through every new chapter, they've continued to choose each other.
In June 2026, nearly a decade after they first met, they took their first resort vacation together. On a beautiful beach, Armin asked Maral to marry him, and of course, she said yes.
Now their story is bringing them back to the beach, this time surrounded by the people they love most, as they say "I do" and begin the next chapter of their lives together.
With love, Maral & Armin
