I. Our Story

Faithfulness in ordinary moments

What began as occasional visits grew into a lifelong friendship marked by shared Sundays, laughter, and unwavering presence. We came to learn that lasting love is built not through grand gestures, but through faithfulness in everyday moments — and that home is not a place, but the person with whom you share life's journey.

  1. 2002

    Two Families, One Table

    When the Macharias and the Thuos gathered for the first time, what began as an introduction quickly became the foundation of one united family. Shared stories, warmth, and mutual respect revealed that family is built as much by love and welcome as by marriage.

  2. 2003

    Building a Home

    In our first home in Donholm, we learned that love is shaped in ordinary life — through patience, understanding, and countless simple moments.

  3. Our Custom

    A Union First Affirmed

    Our union was first affirmed through customary marriage, honouring the traditions and heritage of our families. Since then, we have continued to grow together in love and commitment.

  4. Today

    The Sacrament of Holy Matrimony

    We now seek the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony, joyfully entrusting our covenant to God. This celebration marks not the beginning of our story, but the blessing and consecration of the life we have already begun together.
