Our Story
We met 10 years ago while studying at the University of Liverpool. Amy was immersed in Psychology, and Victor was deep into Accounting, yet it was the quiet moments between lectures that drew us together.
Our first date was an Italian restaurant followed by a film, a perfect evening of shared glances, laughter, and the sense that something timeless had begun. Every chapter since has felt like a gentle promise kept.
Soon, Amy will be Mrs Vincent, and we cannot wait to celebrate this next chapter with you.

The Proposal
Victor proposed in Stockholm, Sweden on 22.08.2025 at Södermalm Skinnarviksberget, Stockholm, Sweden. The view from Skinnarviksberget felt like a painting come alive, and in that moment everything became wonderfully, unmistakably certain.
Vows
Ceremony
We will exchange our vows at St. Cuthbert and St. Oswald Church, a beautiful church that has welcomed generations. We could not imagine a more meaningful place to promise our lives to each other.
