They say love finds you when you least expect it, and for Omar and Carolina, that couldn't be more true. The two first crossed paths at the World Bank in Washington, D.C., each immersed in their respective roles—Carolina as an event planner and Omar on the audio-visual team. Their professional lives often intersected during meetings, trainings, and event setups, but one day stood out above all the rest. It was during a cross-training session designed to help the events and AV teams better understand each other’s work. Omar was leading a demonstration in the interpretation booths, a crucial tool for international events. As he stood in the small, soundproof space explaining its intricacies to a group of five trainees, Carolina stood at the front of the line, her eyes focused intently on his every word. In that moment, Omar felt an undeniable spark, like if it were just the two of them in the room. Her presence—her poise, curiosity, and natural beauty—captured his attention completely. He knew he was standing in front of his future wife. Later that day, Omar decided to take a chance. He left a folded piece of paper on Carolina’s desk. It read, “Would you like to grab coffee, tea, or water one of these days? Check a box.” To his delight, she checked “yes.” That simple note became the starting point for a connection that quickly grew into meaningful conversations, laughter, and a bond neither of them could ignore. Their journey since then has been anything but ordinary. Together, they've faced challenges that tested their patience, strength, and love. Yet, through every trial, they’ve come out stronger, building a foundation of trust and resilience. Every obstacle they’ve overcome has deepened their connection and reminded them of their ability to tackle anything as a team. Now, Omar and Carolina are ready to start their next chapter. They’re excited to celebrate their love with family and friends, as they continue building the future they’ve always dreamed of—together.
