Wedding Party

Saraphine Zane

Bride

Saraphine, a 26-year-old preschool teacher, finds sheer delight in guiding her young students' growth. When not teaching, she enjoys rewatching Grey's Anatomy, caring for houseplants, and thrilling snowboarding sessions in the mountains.

With Philip by her side, they eagerly look forward to a life full of shared passions and cherished moments.

In the captivating realm of the workplace, amidst the shared tasks and camaraderie, I had the immense pleasure of crossing paths with a truly remarkable soul.
