Saint Louis, MO

From a Simple "Hello" to a Lifetime of Love (HOW WE MET)

It all began with a simple "Hello beautiful" on Facebook 11 years ago. That greeting sparked an instant connection as John and Muna bonded over their shared passion for life goals, books, music and food. Just three months later, John took a leap of faith , flying to Saint Louis to meet Muna in person for the first time. It was here, in the heart of downtown Saint Louis, that Muna sealed the deal with her signature dance moves that left John captivated. From that moment on, they were inseparable. As time passed, their love only grew stronger. Muna fell deeply for John's compassion, faith, and devotion to family , while John admired Muna spontaneity, ambition, and warm heart. Fast forward to their engagement, and soon after, they began their courtship. On February 25, 2019, they officially became husband and wife in an intimate courthouse ceremony, vowing to celebrate with a family and friends at a later time. Over the years, their love story has been filled with blessings, three amazing children (Peter, Abigail, and Dominic), good health, and a bond that continues to flourish. They credit God's faithfulness as the foundation of their relationship, guiding them every step of the way. Now, after more than a decade of love and life together, they are preparing to renew their vows on August 16, 2025, surrounded by love ones, as a testament to God's goodness and the love that has only grown sweeter with time.
