Derick and Megan's Wedding Video by #MayadCarmela

Derek, being here today is more than I could have ever imagined. You came into my life so unexpectedly, and yet it felt like you're always meant to be there. I didn't know how sweet and full life could be until you were by my side. You are the joy in my heart, the laughter in my voice, and the smile on my face. To my wife, Megan. Four years ago, we took a chance on each other. You were about to move to Vancouver for good, while I stayed in Manila. I never really believed in long-distance relationships, so when you left for Canada, I honestly thought that it might be the end of us. But I was wrong. God clearly had other plans. We proved to ourselves that when two people believe in each other, and fight for what they want, love will find a way. Thank you for choosing me, thank you for moving back here to the Philippines, and trusting me with your future. Thank you for being my constant, my adventure buddy, and my home. I promise to love you, cherish you, and stand by your side. I'll support you, encourage you, and be the home you can return to. I vow to listen to you, to all your hopes and dreams, and be there through every low, every fall, and every step in between. I'll keep challenging you, just as you challenged me, and continue to inspire you, as you inspired me. I promise to keep working toward the best version of us, no matter what comes our way. We may be different in so many ways, but we've always chosen to focus on what brings us together, and the things that makes us stronger. No one gave up, we stayed, we grew, and we chose each other, every single day. Until today, where we finally got married to forever. I promise to take care of you always, I promise to take you to dinner dates, even if we're already married. I promise to always make time for you, no matter how busy I get, because you, and our future family, will be the most important part of my life. I promise to travel the world with you, we will climb the peak of Mount Fuji, hike to the base camp of Mount Everest, and roam the landscapes of Iceland, just the way how we wanted to live our lives, like an epic adventure. I love you, and I'm so excited to spend the rest of my life with you. And as time softens our edges, and we grow into wrinkled hands and deeper love lines, I promise to still look at you the same way I do today. You are my best friend, my soulmate, my home, my forever. I love you.
