Wedding Party
Hema Schübel
Bride
Hey beautiful friends and family! My name is Hema, a half-singaporean half-german woman full of life, fire for Jesus, goofiness and tenderness. I love to spend moments seeking out the beauty of life! I am an artist, an enneagram four, I love good food and sunsets and travelling, and I'm an actress and dancer by occupation. since I was a little girl, I dreamed of a fairytale love story.. and I am so full of wonder that I get to spend the rest of my life with my Prince Charming! The moment I met Calin I knew there was something special about him. Calin is everything I prayed for and even more🤍 He is a testimony of the goodness of God in my life and I can't believe that I get to marry this beautiful man and build a life, a home, and a family with him. I am so excited to celebrate our wedding and covenant with our loved ones!
Calin Buhai
Groom
Hello hello everyone, I am Calin. I was born and raised in a little city in Romania in a beautiful family. One of my dreams growing up was to meet someone that I can have fun with and build a family together. At 19 I went to California to study where I got to meet that person, the amazing Hemi. We first noticed her at a prayer night and I started to fall for her, then I took the courage to ask her on a date and since then we just had the best time together. My favorite thing is to have fun and to enjoy life and I am so excited to do that together on the 2nd of August🤗

The person who knows me the longest, there is no better friend than a sister and no better sister than you. Being a part of your wedding is one of the most important, exciting moments of our sisterhood. Here’s to your happily ever after🤍

Just hearing someone say “Hema” brings the biggest feeling of joy to my heart. Hema is one of the most wonderful, beautiful, kind, hilarious, passionate, gifted, anointed people I know. And most importantly, Jesus always has the first priority in her life. I met Hema at a prayer event about 4 years ago and when speaking to her, it was as if we had known each other for years. Her passionate nature and her bubbly personality instantly made me want to become her friend. Seeing her walk with God over the last years has been such a source of inspiration to me. She is what we call a true “laid down lover.” The beautiful thing about Hema is that she loves with her whole heart, nothing she does is ever half hearted. I know that she will be the most beautiful wife and her wonderful future husband is so so so incredibly blessed to have this real WONDERWOMAN by his side

Hemi is the first person in my life who successfully taught me to eat spicy food<3 Besides that I‘m so thankful for the craziest faith adventures together; going to Füssen, Redding, Florida, Texas and so on. We went through so much so much Joy, fun, weirdness, sadness, homesickness…😋 had long talks about the future, jesus, picking lice (literally), worshiping, watching musicals. I‘m so, so grateful for these moments. We were talking about this day since the beginning and I‘m too happy for these two firebombs. Cannot wait to celebrate them.

From late-night trampoline talks to shared moments of joy over our favorite worship song getting played. We've led a small group, baptized girls, prayed, dreamed, and celebrated victories together. Here's to a friendship that's witnessed life's highs and lows, and now, joyfully gets to celebrate this special occasion.

Hey I'm Elly and I've been friends with Hema for years now. One special thing about our friendship is that even when we don't see each other for long time, our friendship is still safe and built on trust. I love our friendship because it is full of love, understanding, and full of adventure! I'm so excited for this wedding and wish Hema and Calin all the blessings in the world!

Hema and Calin are getting married! What an honor to celebrate their love! I met Hema at Bssm in Redding, California! Whenever we had a conversation and started to build our friendship I always heard the Lord say to me „You can trust her, she is so trustworthy.“ God was right, I trust Hema with all my heart and I‘m so thankful for our friendship. What a powerhouse she is! Being part of two people saying yes to the love of their life is such a joy. I‘m SO ready to laugh, celebrate and dance together with Hema and Calin✨✨✨

When I was a little kid I was asking my parents for a brother to play with. At the age of four, I got my brother. Since then me and Calin shared life together. So many precious memories. One thing that I love about Calin is the way he treats people. He loves people intentional with the love of Jesus. I am very grateful to have him in my life. He is a gift from God to this world.

I've known Călin for more than 15 years. We grew up together, even as neighbors, forming many pleasant memories over the years, navigating through different seasons of life together. I look forward to the wedding, to celebrate all that God has done in the lives of Căli & Hema, and also what God will do in their life as a family!

Hey all! My name is Marcus! I had the privilege of living with Calin for two years, in that time I can say he claimed a very special place in my heart. I was also classmates with Hema, so when Calin asked me, “who is that girl??” I just knew this could work out great! And now here we are. I really love them and know their union will be powerful! 😮💨💯

What’s up everyone! My names Stephen!The first time I met Calin he needed a ride home because he locked his keys in his car 😂 and ever since then it’s been nothing but adventures, sweet guy chats, and losing to him in FIFA which I couldn’t be anymore grateful for because those moments sparked a flame to a lifelong friendship I am blessed to have. Idk if I can fully put into words the excitement I have, not only to be a part of the wedding but also getting to celebrate Him and Hema especially knowing one of Calin’s dreams is coming into fruition!

Hi! I’m Jean 👋🏽 Calin and I met at BSSM in 2nd year and we both did third year last year. We share a passion for sports, food (long, deep and passionate conversations about that) and good laughters. I also looove to beat him at Mario Kart! He’s just a great guy with such a huge and tender heart in that big container that he is. Hema is just lucky to marry him!

Ciao! My name’s Andrea. I remember seeing this long hair european guy around school but I actually met Calin because when he gave me a ride to go to a soccer game in his old-convertible car 😂 We kept hanging out sometimes but this past year we really bonded. From being part of the ‘Hangs’ group, being in the same school environment, hanging out with the boys, take trips, to have coffees and chats and even lead the Europe Revival Nights together. I got to share many beautiful moments with Calin and I’m honored I get to be part of this special one! I remember Calin telling me about Hema and how he was getting to know her and short after that I knew he was big time into her and now… they’re getting married! I’m excited and touched to be there for Calin and Hema’s day, support and celebrate them. I know they will be a passionate, fun, all-in, power couple. 2 deep lovers of Jesus becoming a beautiful ONE. Can’t wait! 🤍
