We came from different worlds, cultures, beliefs, traditions, expectations. At times, the weight of it all felt too heavy. There were moments when the path seemed impossible, when the noise of “should” and “must” tried to drown out the quiet truth of how we felt.
But love – real love – doesn’t run at the first sign of resistance. It listens. It learns. It fights gently but fiercely.
Through every challenge, every conversation, every compromise. It wasn’t always easy but it was always worth it. Today, we stand here not because everything aligned perfectly but because we did. Two hearts. One commitment. A thousand reasons not to… but one beautiful reason to say yes.
In the end, love did win. And we’re endlessly grateful that it was ours.
Naomi & Zuhair
BORN - 1993
They didn’t know it yet, but somewhere in the world, their forever person had just arrived. Different countries, different baby photos, same birth year — love had already hit “start.”
BORN - 1993
Their story began in front of the State Library in Melbourne.
She arrived with quiet grace and eyes full of wonder. He was there, leaning against his motorbike, trying to play it cool — but already a little bit undone.
They wandered the city and stopped for ice cream. Nothing extravagant, just two strangers sharing sweet moments. And as she sat there, laughing softly, ice cream in hand, she looked beautiful — like a pure soul in the simplest joy.
That’s when he knew. Something real had begun.

Years Ago Together
Since 2018, life has never been the same.
From exploring the corners of Australia to quiet nights spent studying side by side. They’ve grown not just in love, but in life. They’ve laughed through adventures, held each other through challenges, and stood strong through a world turned upside down even a global pandemic.
Together, they’ve learned, healed, dreamed, and become each other’s greatest support system. Not perfect, but always growing. Not always easy, but always worth it.
Every step, every memory, every moment led to this one.

Proposal
It was meant to be just another fun date — an art session filled with colours and creativity. She thought they were simply getting a photo with their paintings. He knew otherwise.
Hidden in the strokes of his canvas was a question that would change everything. And when the moment came… he went down on both knees (because why not make it extra memorable?).
She laughed, then cried — and most importantly, she said yes. A painting session turned into a forever story.
