As Dubai enjoyed lashing rains on its window panes, my team and I were booting up to document another beautiful wedding - the wedding of Nadine and Khaled, or now known as Mr. and Mrs. Kaddoura.

Their love bloomed on the world wide web, particularly the chatting arena of the time, MSN Messenger. Ater years of togetherness, these young lovers celebrated their love with their huge families and with a fiery zaffeh, a grand double entrance for the bride + groom and their huge celebratory wedding cake (that had an entrance of its own!) 

Like all of us living and working in the UAE, these 2 met at the job - doing what they love the most. May, a manager and Yassine, a chef. A few back and forth banter, and the couple celebrated their love in a small wedding ceremony with a guest list of 20 - in the old Hilton of Abu Dhabi and now the new Radisson Blu.
