FAMILY & HOME OUR FAVORITE WEDDING DAY MOMENTS Jeff: My favorite part of our wedding weekend was our "first look." That was the first time that I saw Sufia in her wedding dress, and she looked so beautiful. I was kind of nervous all day and when I saw her, I wasn't nervous anymore. THE INSPIRATION BEHIND HER WEDDING DRESS(ES) Sufia: For my Indian wedding, I wanted a traditional Indian bridal outfit, which is why I chose the red and gold dress. For the Filipino Catholic ceremony, I wanted it to be glitz, glamour and a real wow factor to set the tone for the wedding. WHAT HAS KEPT US TOGETHER Sufia: It’s our commitment to each other and  our desire to fight for each other rather than with each other. SAVVY I SOPHISTICATED I SASSY 45
