For those of you who don't know, since Lori was a little girl it was her dream to get married at the Armenian Island of San Lazzaro. Once engaged, we decided to make the dream a reality. We understand and acknowledge that our request for your presence is no simple ask. We want you all to know just how much it means to us and how grateful we are for your efforts. You are all an instrumental part of our lives and we would be honored to have you part of our special celebration.

We met in 2011 at Armenian Church Camp (Hye Camp) in Fresno. We were 14 years old at the time. 3 years later, we went on our first date. We very quickly fell into young love, something our families had warned us about. We grew (up) together, experienced so much of life's ups and downs, and became each other's best friend. That young love (although still very present), transformed into a partnership, deep respect, and that very sure feeling that this was all part of God's plan. After 8 years together, we got engaged. Never underestimate that young love...
