Our history
In May 2020, at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, our paths crossed in the heart of London. The city was in lockdown, and the usually bustling streets were deserted, with no pubs or restaurants open. Our first date was a walk in the park, as per Covid rules. Lucien, our labrador, quickly broke the ice, and we both knew something special was happening, as that first walk lasted for an hour and a half.
We almost didn’t have a second date, as the next day we were separated in two different countries for quarantine. Regardless, we got to know each other much better by spending hours on the phone every evening until we were both back in England. We then finally had our second date together in Highbury Park and knew it wouldn’t be the last.
Later, a trip to Provence made us realize that we didn’t want to be apart anymore.
In Crillon-Le-Brave, a place that has since become our favorite, we confessed our feelings for each other.
A couple of years later, we said “yes” to each other at our now-local Highbury Park, where we first met after Covid. In August 2022, our son Louis was born, also in London, completing our love and happiness, making us a German/French/British family !
Of course, we would like to celebrate this story with our family and friends through our wedding, at the church of Crillon-Le-Brave, a place so important to our hearts.
If you are reading this, it means you are very special to the three of us, and we hope to see you on the 28th of June 2025 in Provence.
With love,
Anni and Steph
