Love in the Time of Covid

The Never Ending Journey

As you all may be aware, the original plan was to get married in America in November 2020. HAH. So we adapted and decided to have our wedding in South Africa instead. Jamie took and year leave from her job with the intention of moving to South Africa for the year where they could have an extravagant wedding. Seven months after taking the leave, Jamie was finally able to move down to South Africa after the travel ban lifted. We spent the day doing paperwork at their Department of Home Affairs and officially got married in a random lawyers office with his assistants as our witnesses. Not ideal but with the hope of a wedding a few months later we got through it and enjoyed finally being together. When we realized this Covid thing wasn't going away we postponed the wedding again. That time was quickly approaching with yet another hard lockdown on the horizon so we cancelled our wedding all together and just took pictures. After a year and a half of waiting for Ruan to get his green card, he is finally here and we are ready to celebrate!!
