Wedding of Stephanie Laing & Arslan Najmi

Our story began in the most unexpected way—through Instagram. Stephanie came across Arslan’s profile and sent the first message. What started as a simple conversation quickly led to meeting in person, and that was the beginning of something neither of us could have predicted. Much of our early relationship was spent long-distance, staying connected across state lines and through the challenges of Covid. Along the way, we discovered how much joy we share in music, fitness, food, and travel. We have explored countless cities across the U.S., danced at music festivals, cheered on friends at bodybuilding competitions, and visited eight countries together (with no plans of slowing down). Through every adventure, we’ve celebrated our differences—cultural, personal, and everything in between—while building a foundation rooted in respect, laughter, and love. Our journey has been anything but ordinary, and we are so grateful it led us here.
