What truly preserved the texture of their journey was their commitment to honor their unique global background. They beautifully wore multiple traditional outfits, each one a visual chapter of their lives as missionary kids. These weren't just garments; they were cultural artifacts of a shared, unrepeatable history.



Ultimately, the film of their day is not for them on their honeymoon. It’s for the future Ruthie and Timoté, to remind them that this love, which had to travel continents and wait years, is now an emotional inheritance—official, undeniable, and preserved so that the feeling of this perfect day never fades.

HEY - I'm Ruthie!

 I got married at the gorgeous Canterbury Hall Tampa Palms in Tampa, Florida in 2025. Have a look at my experience!

Some love stories feel like they're being woven by destiny, and Ruthie and Timoté’s is a masterpiece of intentional timing. Can you imagine? Meeting as missionary kids in Africa, crossing paths again years later in America—the universe had to give them a second chance before they finally realized, "Okay, this is it."

Their wedding day wasn’t just a celebration; it was the sacred, profound moment they had waited for, a true union centered on Christ and their family. Every single person in that room was there not just for the party, but for the covenant. The air was thick with that special kind of anticipation—the kind you can practically hear in the audio, the feeling of two lives finally aligning.
