Wedding Day Portrait in silhouette of The bride and groom as the sun began to set
Tsvetelina and Stefan were married on a cold winter afternoon in Sofia, Bulgaria, and they posed for portraits as the sun began to set. The halo around the sun created the perfect frame for the silhouetted couple, who are about to share a tender kiss.
Tsvetelina's and Stefan's love story began many years ago, and these two have long been building a life together. They have a daughter together, but getting married had not been a priority. They were simply focused on the love they had for one another and the foundation that they were building for their family.
However, one day in late 2020, they decided that now was the moment, and they were ready to become husband and wife. They planned their wedding in a matter of days, and the intimate gathering that took place in Krasno Selo Ritual Hall in Sofia, Bulgaria was filled with joy, laughter and love.
