Our Story
It was New Year's Eve 2018 (or was it 2019 already?) and we were at Drew's best man’s house for a party. Most of the night was a joyous blur—thanks champagne! But one thing was worth remembering: The first time we met.
Since then, we have weathered economic ups and downs, two wars, political shifts, and even a global pandemic. We have traveled across the US and explored many European countries. Though we came from two completely different worlds—different languages, cultures, and religions—our differences only brought us closer.
Drew knew right away he had found "the one."
Drew has made several trips to Istanbul and fell in love with the food—almost as much as he fell for Elif!
Elif came to Boston in 2016 for her masters and quickly fell in love with America. As her father likes to say, “We sent her for an education, and she found a husband” - which is spot on!
Together, we have overcome a lot in our journey and are thrilled to embark on this new journey as husband and wife!
