The Bride
A short snippet about the bride.
Hope grew up a songbird. Singing on her grandfathers lap, playing the vioilin by age 3. She returned to Washington DC at 15 where she was born and attended the Duke Ellington School of the Arts and Graduated from American University with a degree in Musical Theatre. After a decade of recording music and touring, she sought a quieter life that in ways felt smaller and for her happy. That led her to her photogrpahy and marketing business and moving to the desert where both her and her parents live, and where fate would lead her to meet the love of her life. The only singing Hope does these days is every morning as she screams the lyrics to “Your love is lifting me Higher” as Taib loads up his truck for work in front of the house. She attracts hummingbirds wherever she goes, is stubborn, independent and loves Taib with patience and a childlike gratitude.
The Groom
A short snippet about the groom.
Taib Lotfi was born in a remote Berber village in the Atlas Mountains. He was mischievous, and once his older brother and father had left to work in the city for weeks or months at a time and he was alone in the house with his mother and sisters he was known to always get himself into something. He eventually moved into the city as well, and eventually left the family business to delve into hospitality at El Fenn and eventually the Moroccan Rug Trade. A fateful turn of events led Taib to be the first in his lineage to leave Morocco and he ended up in Palm Springs, CA of all places. Taib can seem quiet at first, but if you give him space to speak you’ll hear him ( in over 4 languages) be goofy, wise, resourceful, and equally as independent and stubborn as his chosen fiancé. A perfect match he loves her wholly and completely as she is and there is no where else he would rather be, with the exception occasionally of Home Depot, then by her side.
The Registry
Many of you are traveling across the globe to celebrate with us in Morocco, so your presence means the world to us and is all we ask for. If you'd still like to contribute to our registry or honeymoon funds- we’ll provide a link to come.
We will link them soon, we are in no rush to receive gifts. And to be honest, all Taib wants is Home Depot gift cards.
