Our Love Story
One day, one spark, one love — forever.
Our Love Story
"Every love story is beautiful, but ours is our favorite."
How We Met
We met on a dating app and decided to meet in person on Valentine’s Day 2025. Our first date began by a big tree near Naftalie’s house, followed by the mall, a restaurant, and finally the cinema. The night flew by—it felt effortless and special from the very beginning.
The First Date
About a week later, Ben asked Naftalie to be his girlfriend during only their second meeting. She said yes, and from that moment on, she became part of the family.
The Proposal
On July 3rd, Ben asked Naftalie to be his wife. She said yes! The proposal took place in their newly purchased home in Grafton—simple, intimate, and emotionally perfect.
🌸 Meet the Bride – Naftalie
A small girl with a heart bigger than the world, Naftalie comes from the vibrant island of Madagascar. She arrived in the USA in December 2024, driven by a love of adventure, curiosity for languages and cultures, and a fearless spirit. Outgoing, playful, and full of jokes, she brings joy wherever she goes. Though she isn’t fond of the cold, she warms every room she enters. At the heart of her home is the simple joy of rice, the staple of her beloved Madagascar.
🌲 Meet the Groom – Ben
From the wide skies and snowy lands of North Dakota, Ben is tall, strong, and grounded. A man of seriousness and depth, he thrives in nature, among trees, plants, and fresh fruits. Passionate about snowmobiling, he is adventurous in his steadfast way. But behind his strength lies a tender heart, ready to hold Naftalie forever.
