Genna and Firat first met at a place you wouldn’t think to meet your future spouse…CVS! Firat worked at the pharmacy and when Genna came up to the counter, Firat noticed her necklace was a Turkish symbol (he’s from Turkey) that he knew of. That sparked their first conversation – connecting over their Turkish background. It was love at first sight! They soon became boyfriend and girlfriend, and dated for 8 years!
They eloped in middle of the pandemic, so they were limited on how many guests they could have, including Firat’s family from Turkey. Despite the small gathering, it was no small affair! Genna and Firat’s love for each other was so beautiful, and their choice in location to celebrate was incomparable. Genna’s mother worked with the Virginia House years ago, so Genna always pictured having her wedding there. It was such a romantic venue, and matched them so well!
We could not be more thankful to work with Genna and Firat, and wish them all the best!
