Our Wedding

Like many modern love stories, Zach's &amp; Leen's story started on Bumble in Arizona. Zach technically matched with Leen first, but she made the first move (as bumble requires). From the very first conversation, something just felt right. He was calm, genuine, and everything she had been praying for. Things quickly fell into place in a way that felt natural and easy. Zach somehow always knows how to make Leen laugh when she is just being dramatic. They both share the same values, the same faith, and a deep love for family, which made building a life together feel like the most obvious decision.The proposal was a complete surprise for her, and knowing Leen this might surprise you!! While she was visiting her sister in Montreal, Zach secretly flew there to plan everything for the proposal, when Leen walked into the house and saw him waiting, she was shocked, emotional, and of course said YES!!!They truly believe they are the answer to each other’s prayers, and they feel so grateful to be starting this next chapter together.
