The groom

Lavie, you’ve brought laughter, warmth, and meaning into my life. You’re my beautiful mix of energy and soul, turning simple moments—like that rainy night with takeout—into pure love. I can’t wait to keep building this amazing life with you.

Bjorn

The Bride

Björn, you’re my calm, my adventure, and my favorite person. Life with you—whether we’re dreaming, cooking, or just staying in—feels like a series I never want to end. Here’s to a lifetime of love, laughter, and us.

We are waiting for..... The adventure

Our love story

First meet

In the charming Irish city of Cork a beautiful love story began. It was a late summer day when Lavie and Björn first met, and their connection was instant and undeniable.

First date

Their first date, in a romantic and cozy restaurant, was so captivating that it never ended. In that moment, surrounded by the soft glow of candlelight, the stars aligned and they knew they had found something truly special.

To Forever

From then on, they've been exploring not just the mountains and the seas, but what it truly means to be there for each other. Now, here in Malindi, Kenya, their journey has come full circle as they begin their forever.
