That’s right, after being seven years with Helena, I proposed to her. It was in the Grand Place, in the beautiful city of Brussels.

We’ve been together for a long time, she’s a beautiful person, I love her and I wanna be with her. Now, she already knew this but we’ve been talking about celebrating this relation with a party for our friends and family, the thing people usually call wedding; this is what marriage is to us, a celebration (besides the advantages that the government gives), we don’t see it as a requirement to have a serious relationship.

So, we don’t want a traditional wedding, we haven’t decided how it’s gonna be but we want it to be great. BTW, if you have Gogol Bordello‘s number, we might wanna ask for a budget!
