The Bride

The wedding planner, according to friends obsessive compulsive...She has been back and forth Norway and Philippines. Finished BS Acctcy in Letran College in Intramuros, Manila where she was also a tambay of Batibot. Used to be an alternative rakista, but is now more versatile. Opinionated and ambitious, but both feet on the ground. Loves satisfying her senses and exploring new things. As of the moment very homesick to the archipelago she calls home

The Groom

He is a kurd from Iraq, 2 years younger than her. Very lively and talkative. He sings in kurdish weddings and events. He plays soccer in his spare time. He is very young at heart and loves cartoons, toys and gadgets. He loves her country, and has been there twice before. Quite a dreamer with lots of fantasy. His greatest interest is cars like any ordinary male.

Their lovestory

They both worked in Burger King, and in the beginning they would never predict that they would ever be together. She was in a long distance relationship and he wasn't specially interested in getting a partner that time. He enjoyed life as it was, strolling the street every day, being binata. Then her relationship crumbled, and in a homeparty with her friends, they started developing feelings for each other and the talk led to confessions. She has always liked her humor and looks, and he was attracted to her as well. So even if their culture and religion was a mismatch, they started dating each other secretly. They officially became a couple, but still in hiding (even inside closets). Then one day, they took the step to announce their love to their family and faced a lot of struggles and turbulence a period as they didn't immediately get their approval. One day, Bizzi came home with good news. The news, she was waiting for since she first fell in love with him, the acceptance of them as a couple. This served as their engagement. There was no proposal involved, but him having to cry after revealing their secret and him standing up to his decision despite the reluctance of his parents is enough for her. That was the turning point of their relationship. And everyday it grows sweeter and sweeter...
