To our wonderful friends and family,

As many of you are aware, we got married earlier than we had originally planned in an intimate ceremony on the 14th of September, 2026.

We are now excited to celebrate our marriage with all of our favourite people on the 28th of February 2027. Thank you for your continued love and support.

For the ladies

We would love to see everyone dressed up in formal attire. For ladies, long dresses are recommended, excluding black or white. Please keep in mind that parts of the event are outdoors on grass lawns, so block heels, wedges, or heel protectors are recommended to avoid sinking into the turf, and wear shoes you can comfortably move in for dancing throughout the evening.

How we got here

Our Story

The couple sitting together on the floor of a bright cream living room, smiling

We first met in 2022 during our final year of medical school. We quickly became best friends, grew together as we started working alongside each other as doctors, and inevitably, at some point, we became inseparable.

In January 2026, amid the bustle of studying for our final specialty exams, we got engaged.

On September 14, 2026, we made the decision to get married in an intimate, last-minute ceremony so that all of our immediate family could attend.

We are forever grateful to our families, whose countless small acts of love and effort made this day possible — we thank you for being the foundation of our forever.

Now, five months later, we are ready to have the big celebration we always dreamed of with our extended family and all of our friends. Thank you for being part of our story.
