Iceland / Elopement / Karolina + Christian

''We actually met 19 years ago, when I was 22 and he 23, and fell in love immediately. We were each other’s first real love, and as it turned out the love of our lives ❤️

We were together for 2,5 years back then, and we got engaged on April 29th 2000. sadly it ended tragically when Christian was sent to Kosovo as a soldier and came back with severe PTSD.

We have never forgotten each other though and never stopped loving each other. We have lived separate lives for 17 years and had no contact for 15 years. We have always kept an eye out for each other though.

He contacted me 3 months ago, we met a week later and he proposed to me again a week after that. I know it sounds corny, but we really are soulmates. I’ve never loved anyone as much as I love him. I have always had this feeling of belonging when I’m with him. He’s my home. And I am his ❤️

We chose to elope as we both just want our wedding to be about us.''
