Hanna + Tuan - Avila Beach Wedding

After that first magical New Year’s Eve, Tuan and Hanna knew that their connection was something special. Hanna was set to leave to Canada soon and stay with her sister, the beginning of a new journey. But both Hanna and Tuan could not ignore the spark that had ignited between them. With only two months left, Tuan was determined to make every moment count. He orchestrated romantic dates and surprises that swept Hanna off her feet and left her breathless with anticipation. Their love grew deeper with every passing day, and they cherished each precious moment they had together, knowing that their time was limited.

When the day finally came for Hanna to leave, they were both devastated. Tears flowed as they hugged tightly, not wanting to let go. But they promised to stay in touch and keep their love alive, no matter the distance between them. And true to their word, they talked every day, for hours on end, their conversations filled with longing and the hope of a future together. It was their devotion that made her sister realise Hanna and Tuan were destined for a life of love.

A couple of years later, they dressed into a white dress and a beige suit to marry in front of their family and closest friends. Hanna and Tuan got ready not far from the ceremony location at a beautiful villa in Jan Thiel. The couple was overjoyed to share their special day with their family and friends, some of whom flew over 16 hours from Vietnam just to be there. It was a true testament to the strength of their friendships and the love they all shared.

Tuan had torn his Achilles tendon while playing squash in Holland. It was his first time playing and also his last. But he refused to let the injury dampen his spirits for their wedding day. In a display of utter courage, Tuan ditched his crutches during the beach ceremony, and as he pondered to walk down the aisle his brother and best friend picked him up. It was truly moving to see them carry him over to the gazebo. Everybody cheered and he was all smiles! That's what friends are for!" he exclaimed, his face beaming with joy.

With a glorious sunset as the backdrop, the parents and sister gave heartfelt speeches, expressing their love and admiration for the couple.

After their first dance, the tequila shots were lined up for everyone and started flowing… Hanna poured the liquor like a pro, much to everyone's amusement. She and Tuan downed their shots with a lick of salt, a slice of lemon, and took off to the stage where they joined their crazy loving family and friends!
