They finally got married :D

Today was a special day for my best friend. She has been dating her boyfriend for a while now and he was here in Portugal on a turist visa. He wanted to stay here but there was no easy way to get him legal and be able to live out his life with her in any way.

It was decided that they wanted to get married and start a family and that was the simple solution but not an easy task due to immigration laws.

His visa was already running out and if they didnt get the wedding approved then he would have to fly back to Brazil for a couple of months to be able to return.

Last Wednesday we went to testify to her marriage proposal at city hall. This was a wonderful day because they didn’t see any reason to send the file to immigration. So they marked the wedding date for today.

They got married this morning and there were 4 witnesses. After this we had a little ceremony by having a little gathering and going out for lunch.

After lunch we went to get the wedding rings (yes this was after the wedding). Luckily i had the morning off and could be there the whole way. I am very happy for them. They got what they wished for and it wasn’t as diffecult as they thought it would be.

So today is a happy day and one to remember. A civil wedding with a couple of friends but it was something that meant alot.

We finally have a new family member and it all worked out. We all couldn’t be happier for them. This is something that they really deserve after so much.

Now they are going to save up to get their life started up by getting a house and actually starting their family as they wanted so badly.

These are moments we need to remember forever. Just the thought of this hard process getting by in one day made everything so awesome.
