Our Wedding

On December 3, 2020, in Austin, Texas, destiny quietly aligned our paths. From the very first moment there was an undeniable connection, effortless, natural, and deeply familiar, as if our souls recognized one another long before we spoke. What began as an instant spark gently unfolded into a profound love grounded in faith, strengthened by patience, and guided by a shared vision. Conversation by conversation, prayer by prayer, dream by dream, our bond deepened with intention and grace. On August 8th, 2026, we will gather in Dar es Salaam to begin our forever surrounded by family and friends. This destination wedding is more than a celebration. It is a homecoming of hearts, unity across generations, and love honored with intention and warmth. Two families will become one, and a lifetime together will begin.Your presence is the greatest gift. To travel across cities and continents to stand beside us is a blessing we will forever cherish. Thank you for walking with us, praying with us, and believing in our love story. We cannot wait to welcome you to Tanzania to celebrate faith, family, and forever.Karibuni sana!With love,Franck and Aike

Serengeti National Park is a World Heritage Site teeming with wildlife: over 2 million ungulates, 4000 lions, 1000 leopard, 550 cheetahs and some 500 bird species inhabit an area close to 15,000 square kilometers in size. Join us on a safari and explore the endless Serengeti plains dotted with trees and kopjes from which majestic lions control their kingdom; gaze upon the Great Migration in awe or find an elusive leopard in a riverine forest. Or perhaps see everything from a bird’s-eye view and soar over the plains at sunrise during a hot air balloon safari. Accommodation options come in every price range - the sound of lions roaring at night is complimentary.
