Our special day
Dear family and friends, We are incredibly happy and excited to share this special day with you.
Here you will find all information and updates about the ceremony, the party and the practical details.
We look forward to making unforgettable memories with you.
Information
Our wedding website: the digital love nest where romance and practical information go hand in hand (just like us soon). 💍✨
Here you will find everything you need to know about the day we say a resounding "yes" to each other and to a carefully planned day. From where you need to be and what time you are expected to put on your best smile, to what you wear and how you can spoil us even more in addition to your irresistible presence.
If you still have questions after reading: no stress. Love is complicated, and logistics sometimes too. Feel free to send us a message. We will answer with love, enthusiasm and possibly a slight wedding panic - but always with a smile.
In short: see this website as your romantic roadmap to our big day. We are counting down the days and can't wait to laugh, toast, maybe shed a tear and above all celebrate a lot of love with you. 🥂💖
Put a reminder in your agenda 😉
About us
We are Ruben and Dianella. Ten years ago we started like so many modern love stories: with a Tinder date and a "let's see where this goes". Spoiler: this went very far.
After one month together we were already in a tent on the cliffs of Normandy. Wind, cold, little comfort... and yet we thought: yes, this is a good idea. That moment immediately proved that if you survive this together, you can handle anything. Since then we have been on a loving rollercoaster in which we support each other, catch each other and sometimes also make each other laugh too hard.
Ruben (April 1985) started as a medical instrument maker and later decided that he preferred wood. Now he is literally and figuratively building the future.
Dianella (October 1986) started her training with scissors and hair dryers, but exchanged them for stethoscopes and plasters. Nowadays she is a doctor's assistant and therefore officially the one with the most medical knowledge in the house.
We have been together for 10 years (since 6-6-2016), and engaged for 3 years. The engagement took place on 25-12-2022 at Playa Forti in Curaçao, because yes: if you do it, do it well.
In short: started with a swipe, tested in a tent, engaged in the sun - and now ready for the next chapter 💍✨
Planning of the day
How nice that you're here!
During the day we will say "I do" at the beautiful Fraeylemaborg. Afterwards we will celebrate this special day further with family and friends, and then conclude together with a cozy party evening at Paviljoen De Rietzoom.
From 7:30 PM we would like to welcome you. We will start the evening together with a piece of wedding cake, after which it will be time to toast, catch up and especially enjoy a pleasant party evening together.
From that moment on, the bar becomes more important than the schedule. The feet can go off the floor, hands in the air and your sneaky dance moves can finally be seen. Maybe you'll start the limbo contest or grab a microphone for a spontaneous singing solo.
Whether you spend the whole evening on the dance floor or prefer to enjoy a drink and good company, we are very happy that you are here to celebrate this special day with us.
At 12:00 AM we will close the party, so make that dance floor unsafe while you can! ✨
Love,
Dianella & Ruben

Even better news: Dianella & Ruben want you to be there to celebrate this with us.
Expect: love, fun, music and a dance floor that will be made unsafe.
Please RSVP before August, that makes us (and especially the caterer) very happy.
