An Instagram DM and Unusual First Date Led to Stephanie & Christian’s Fairytale

Imagine going on your first date with a guy you met on Instagram and at that instant, he looks at you and says “This is my wife.” 😅

We bet you can imagine the shock on Stephanie’s face when Christian made this declaration few minutes after they had just met. Years later, what she thought was a mere joke then has now become a sweet reality. The lovebirds exchanged their vows in a white wedding ceremony and it was all shades of beautiful. They stepped out looking dashing, radiating love at every glance. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, the day was filled with joy, laughter, and heartfelt emotions. Theirs is proof that love at first sight truly exists.

Enjoy their wedding photos and love story below:

Their love story as shared by Stephanie:

Christian and I first connected through a mutual friend on Instagram. He had reached out to her, asking for my profile, and that’s where our love story truly began. What started as a simple online connection soon blossomed into something much more profound. We began as friends, sharing conversations that flowed effortlessly, each message bringing us closer. Our first date is one I’ll never forget. We were both nervous, but as soon as he saw me, Christian looked into my eyes and said, “This is my wife.” I burst out laughing, thinking it was just a joke—how could he be so sure when we’d only just met? But he was serious.

Stephanie came with that striking bridal glow

Little did I know then that he was speaking from his heart, with a certainty that only true love can bring. From that moment on, our journey together has been nothing short of magical. Last year, on my birthday, Christian surprised me with the most beautiful proposal. He had gathered all of my loved ones, creating a moment that was as thoughtful as it was unforgettable. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner, and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us next.

All set for the big day!
