Natalya Badalian

Honorary Groomsman

The cabana, the sun, and the friend who brought my future into view.

Natalya Badalian
somehow it all came full circle through you
A letter to NatalyaCatalina

Natalya,

As we were choosing our groomsmen, I could not imagine a world in which you were not one of my honorary groomsmen.

You have such a pure heart—full of love, care, and compassion—and you have always been there for me. You have always been loyal, kind, and sweet beyond words.

Then you introduced me to my fiancée, which still gives me chills. Somehow, everything came full circle. You went from telling Dane and me that we were the biggest catches in your friend group to introducing me to the person who would complete my life.

You are someone I can always reach out to and count on for positivity, happiness, and support. Even when you are sad or upset, you are still looking out for everyone around you.

I cannot wait for us to raise our children alongside one another and take family trips together in the future. Even as physical distance grows between us, I know we will become closer than ever.

Love you.

P.S. — Distance grows, we get closer. Love you.

Will you be my honorary groomsman?

Always, — The Groom
