My name is Alondra, and I'm a twenty-year-old woman who's celebrating my wedding day in Istanbul. I'm standing here with all of you, dressed in a beautiful bridal gown, feeling blessed to have such amazing people in my life.
My backstory is one filled with love and happiness. I come from a family of Russian ancestry, but I was born and raised in Scandinavia, where I spent most of my childhood playing outside and enjoying the beautiful nature that surrounded me. When I turned 18, I moved to Ireland to pursue my education, where I met my husband-to-be.
We fell deeply in love and decided to get married here in Istanbul, because we both have a fascination with this city's rich history and culture. And what better way to celebrate our union than with all of you, surrounded by flowers and music?
I hope that today will be a day to remember for years to come, and I'm so grateful to have each and every one of you here to share it with me.
