Our story

This is the short version. Ask us for the long one at the wedding.

December 2022, Maryland

Coming to America

A trip to America and a bowling night in Maryland. One of our early memories together.

Early days

By the sea

Beach days

He took the selfie, so of course he's most of the picture. I'm back there smiling anyway.

Mostly him

A night out

All dressed up

We had somewhere to be and still stopped for a picture in the lift. We were already that couple.

Malta

On the boat

A sunny day in Malta, so we went straight out on the water. He barely looked at the view.

The view

Malta

Just us and the sea

Sailing along Malta's Mediterranean coast, with the shoreline drifting past and nowhere else we'd rather be.

Our kind of getaway

The French Riviera

The climb

It was a long walk up for one photo. We complained the whole way, and it was worth it.

The question

He didn't keep it small. Red roses everywhere and the question up in lights. She said yes.

Steve and Oyin embracing inside a heart of red roses, beside a neon sign asking Will you marry me
Yes!

Tirana

Our next chapter

Now we get to share the next chapter with our favourite people. We can't wait to celebrate with you.

Book your hotel before you arrive. The code OYINSTEVE is only for Select Hill Resort; message the front desk on WhatsApp (+355 68 661 1111) and quote it for 10% off your booking. No wedding discount is confirmed for the other suggested hotels. See where to stay below.
Taxi apps
Choose from Patoko, Speed Taxi Albania and Taxi Lux before you land. Download your favourite and keep another as a backup for getting around Tirana.
Evening layers
Evenings can get chilly, especially up at Select Hill Resort. Pack scarves, sweaters, a shawl or a light jacket to stay cosy after sunset.

Hotel blocks and guest rates will be added here as they are confirmed. Until then, Select Hill Resort is on site for Friday, and these are our suggestions in the city.
