Lee was working part-time at a cigar shop over the holidays and Naser was a regular customer. The pair struck up a friendship and remembered one another when their paths crossed again five years later. Naser noticed Lee and a friend chatting in one of the cigar shops he owned and asked Lee to join him for dinner at Javier’s. They became close friends over the next few years and finally found themselves in love. With Lee constantly traveling as a flight attendant, they didn’t get to see one another much so she left the airlines to work for Naser’s company full time. They were engaged shortly after and set out to plan a wedding to remember.
The couple’s wedding weekend included a traditional Afghan wedding the night before their ceremony and reception at the Ritz Carlton. Lee and Naser were so happy to host a full weekend of fun for their loved ones that blended traditions from each of their families. The planning went off without a hitch as the pair selected flowers in shades of pink and purple to hang from the ceiling in lush halos . The bride made sure to set up an outdoor cigar lounge for her groom and his friends to enjoy. Naser was touched because the cigar business is his passion and that’s where he first met Lee.
