Can you believe it, me and Enrico got married! All (I think) of your questions answered here :) Timestamps: 01:39 The 'proposal' 04:36 What was the process to get married? 18:08 How does it feel to get married?
Holy shit I came back to this channel after like 3-4 years and I can’t believe how much has changed. Your videos and damonandjo content was huge in my decision to be able to go to Scotland to do my undergrad. I never would’ve had the confidence to go to school in another country without y’all. It’s so crazy to see you married now! Congrats that’s awesome
My husband didn’t propose either. We had a conversation as well. We wanted to make sure we were on the same page about where our relationship was going. We eloped and then had a big reception later when we had the money for it. I loved how we approached it and I would recommend everyone do it that way. lol
We got married in June 21, it was a little bit hard to understand what a nulla osta is (I'm danish) , but finally we made it. It went totally fine with my comune, I live in a smaller city, maybe that is the case :) We also waited like 1 year after the proposal because my wife had to be Italian first (she's originally nigerian) = un po' di burocrazia in meno. then the pandemic came ... but finally we made it! Non è cambiato molto, gia convivevamo da 6 anni, eccetto che nowwe have a little 3 months old Sven Damilola with us tanti auguri a entrambi !!
Congratulations! Having "the conversation" is the Italian way of doing things. I prefer it to the "proposal" that's more common in English speaking countries.
Is it? That's great because that's what happened with me and my husband (italian), but I thought it was just us. That actually makes me feel better to know we're not unique.
Congratulations! I never knew anyone in Italy who did the "proposal". It is always like "You know, we should marry" "Oh, I think you are right". I don't even get all the American concept of "proposal". If I ask someone to marry me, and I do it in a public space, in front of a crowd, with music, balloons, pigeons and a whole choreography and the other says "no", how incredibly humiliating the whole experience is for both!?!
One way around that entire surprise proposal is to talk about it along the way-- do you want to marry, marry each other, when? What kind of proposals do you prefer... etc. Then timing & actual proposal venue, who else is present, or not, etc is the surprise.
Most couple I know already knew they wanted to get married. So the proposal is just a way to surprise the girl and make it special, sometimes it's not all out public it's done somewhere special alone or with others. Those that do it without discussing it first and agreeing and just plain careless and impulsive.
@@dianaperez6369 thank you. I admit that everything I know about proposals comes from American movies and in them often things go completely wrong 😅. Still, the whole concept (in my opinion) reeks of sexism. It's always the man who does the proposal, so it's entirely his decision the "when". Like we are still in some kind of pre-industrial age and the man is the only who produces wealth in the house, so he is the one who decides when it's the best time to organize the weeding.
Aaaah, congrats to you both! I've been a subscriber since the uni days, and girl, to be able to see you grow throughout the years and create all these amazing milestones while bringing us along for the ride makes me such a happy and proud little subby 🥺💜 I wish you both all the best for the years to come!
Congratulations. I believe that's how it should be. Classy and simple. The US has made getting married such a chore with HUGE expectations on everyone. 1)How big is the engagement ring, 2) then the wedding ring, 3) spending on bachelor and bachelorette parties, 4) endless gifts, 5) then the destination weddings, 6) the dresses for the bridesmaids and groomsmen...it's never about just celebrating an actual union of 2 people. It's all about making sure you replicate this process. Everyone gets dragged into fulfilling their "dream" and has to spend enormous amount of money to satisfy the desires of the bride and groom (mostly the bride). It is financially draining for a lot of people., and it shouldn't be. It should be a celebration of a happy moment that one wants to share with people they love. It shouldn't be a burden on other people. I have catered over 100 weddings and most of them are so over the top. People can't afford them and get in debt just for the wedding. What a way to start a new life together! They can't wait to count how much money they received for their wedding just to reimburse themselves for some of the expenses they just had...it's such a racket when you think about it. The bride and groom as so stressed they have to get shit faced just to enjoy their own wedding. I have also done weddings for the same people 2 times...if you get what I mean. You got to love the repeat customers. LOL. The best wedding I have gone to was the simplest one. They are happy and still together. I congratulate you and your future family. xx

Im starting to see a trend of people having smaller weddings or eloping. My fiancé and I are having a small beach elopement ceremony this winter (10people) and are going to just host a dinner after. We would rather spend our money on a house and nice honeymoon instead. It’s all up to you and what you want to do. It’s your life ♥️ . The pressure only comes if you’re more worried about others outside of your relationship rather than each other
Congratssss! My husband and I were the same way. It was a convo for us and we did it (a private wedding with an intimate dinner to follow then we were on a flight to Canada two days after). We moved to Canada for 5 years and now we are travelling the world full-time. We get it 100%!
Congratulations!! It's so amazing having followed you since you were at the Bocconi University now seeing you so happily settled and even married! And in the while defeating the italian bureaucracy! Go girl!
First things first: congratulations! Getting married is quite easy, in Italy, if you get married where you were born with someone from the same town. If not, well… When I got married in 1997, since I was living at the US at the time, I had to go through the Italian consulate: of course they had very different ideas on the kind of documents I needed. I ended up bringing my future father-in-law cellular phone (in ‘97!) to my wife’s comune offices in order to have the local officer spend half an hour yelling and accusing the consular agent of not knowing the law (and vice versa) until they came to an agreement. And we were able to do that since the officer was on a first name basis with my mother-in-law. I cannot imagine how bad it is in a big city where you don’t know anyone in the town administration and with all the problems getting an appointment with COVID…
i've been watching your content since the very beginning of your channel. this video made me cry, genuinely. out of pure joy. i'm so happy for the both of you and i wish you the best in life
Tia thank you for sharing this! I’m going through the same exact process with my fiancé and getting crazy. It really relieves me knowing that we are not late in the process it’s just the bureaucracy!!
This is so beautiful! I’ve been watching y’all since foreverrr! Since boyfriend challenges were a big deal! Im so so happy for you both! Congratulations beautiful 🥰🥰🥰
Evviva gli Sposi! Wishing you both the very best. There is so much craziness in the world at the moment and not enough love and this news is so heartwarming. Go girl, go!
Congrats again on the wedding 💕 I've been following you since Bocconi days and it just feels like a friend of mine got married!! I can imagine how stressful it must've been - now enjoy the happy buzz!! So happy for you two ✨
Colombia is the same. What an experience. They tell you piece by piece information and you spend your time on the State Department matters and FedEx. The process is draining, frustrating, and expensive. But you made it and I made it on Valentine's Day 2022. Three witnesses and still to plan the reception. Congratulations!
"Facciamo a modo nostro e secondo me è il modo giusto per noi~" Sono troppo felice per voi Tia! ❤ Sei sempre stata una forza ispiratrice per me che ti seguo da ormai tanti anni, ed aver avuto modo di seguire la tua crescita fino a questo punto è stato emozionante. Un sogno che spero di coronare presto anche io 🏳️🌈💕 I miei più sinceri auguri di una lunga e felice vita assieme 🥰🤧
Yes, times are tough but we are so grateful your shared this moment of love and joy with us! Congrats to you guys and can't wait to see what your future has in store!!!!
Congratulations! By the way, I married in Italy with an italian guy from a different region, and that came with some burocratic difficulties, but nothing compared to the process of finding a priest available for the day we had planned.. it was surreal, we wanted to marry in the region of origin of my husband (in this way we could afford to offer the hotel to the part of the family that had to travel, which was my family that is smaller) , and no priest wanted to marry us because we weren't resident in the region.. luckily we found a kind one that accepted after we started begging.. one of the priest said to us:" saturday afternoon I go to the market to get groveries, I cannot marry you". Ooooook...
Talk about the crisis of Catholic church concerning the lack of priestly vocations .... but as South American, I wouldn't feel I am engaging for life without getting married in a lovely ceremony in church in front of a catholic priest, without having my close loved ones surrounding me while wishing endless love and beautiful children, an engagement as important as life itself. Tradition is so strong and we expect this when we start looking for "Mr. Right".
We have a saying in Italy that states that you can’t get married nor leave for a trip on tuesday and friday 😂 “Né di Venere né di Marte, non si sposa né si parte”
@@lorenzosignorini3288 sì, ma non credo sia per questo che a Milano non ti puoi sposare di martedì. Sarà perché le sale sono disponibili solo alcuni giorni al settimana.
@@eleclettica It's the same in an old Spanish saying, "En martes, ni te cases ni te embarques" (On a Tuesday, don't get married nor sail away"). By the way, as an Empire and being a Penisola, Romans probably taught it to the Spaniards when they conquered Spain before Christ. Needless to say, that silly superstition shouldn't be the real cause of that Milan regulation.
You are so put together, well spoken, articulate, intelligent, ambitious, motivated, inspiring, gorgeous, hardworking and so much more.. I just like listening and following your informative vlogs..I rarely comment but I'm always here. I also love when you talk about the requirements and criteria needed for acquiring different documents there. Please keep showing that it's very interesting to me. Congrats to you both on your wedding. God bless..
wow! what a hectic adventure! but so proud of you! and so happy that goal was accomplished, one way or another! Cheers to an amazing "second/Big" wedding day! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ And Happy marriage!
Very happy for you both, Tia! (And much respect for successfully surviving the journey through that hell that our bureaucracy is. Unfortunately in many other fields, as well). Be happy! My warmest wishes !
Congratulations! You are keeping it real because most times it's not a formal proposal it's a conversation between two people who decide to get married. Wish you all the best!
Congratulations!! I’m so happy for you two !! ❤️ Anyway as much as I love my country, I know how complicated the procedures for almost everything are, also they never tell you exactly what you need to bring to do something and so you will always have to come back million times. Now that I’m studying law, I know that procedures are so complicated because of their origins (Roman, Germanic and catholic laws, etc…), but if the office workers were just a little bit more efficient it wouldn’t be so difficult to do almost anything 😅Anyway now you are out of the woods and I’m really happy for you 🥰
Félicitations Tia to you and Enrico!!! Wishing you well with many happy years of being married. This year will be our 30th wedding anniversary. Hard to believe I've been living in France 32 years so more than half my life. Remember that time flies so quickly. Enjoy!
Congrats! I just found your channel and I've surprised myself I actually watched the whole thing.....To sum it all up: YOU are the total package, I love your look, I love your energy, you are amazing, your husband is a blessed man.....🥰🌺🌹🥀🌿
Congratulations to you both! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness! Italian bureaucracy is hilarious. I guess if you are tough enough to get through all the bureaucracy, your marriage will surely last the test of time. LOL
"You can't get married on Tuesday" killed me. LOL it was a bit complicated to marry a foreigner here in the states during the pandemic....Obvio not as complicated but making appointments were frustrating. I too, didn't want to have my wedding the same month as my birthday (March) but we had to if we didn't want to wait. My ceremony also became more then what I actually wanted it to be, but anyway I totally understand. However wasn't the day so magical even after all of the bureaucracy? Well it was for me :-)
Hey Tia! I’ve been following you since the very beginning, and I was always fascinated by the fact that we had a lot in common…just reversed. I moved from Milan to New York in 2014. Lot of bureaucracy on my side too as an Italian international student in the US. Then last year I got married, and because of the pandemic my husband and I also chose to do a small city hall wedding. Kinda similar situation where no body really knew the date we were going to get married and so we picked a date randomly… February 24th 2021!!! 😅 So yeah… just felt compelled to comment! Congratulazioni a te ed Enrico!!! 🎉
Congratulations! I have been following you on TH-cam since the Bocconi days and I am very happy to watch all your achievements throughout these years 😊
Tia I'm so happy for you and I'm not a fan of weddings 💕 seeing it pop up on my Instagram feed was such a nice surprise and it looked different and cute, congratulations!! (The bureaucracy part made me laugh out loud in order not to cry and reminded me why I'm not in Italy anymore + why I get angry and tired when I have to deal with its bureaucracy 💀)
Tanti auguriiii!!! You’re right, the American consulate in Milan is a breath of fresh air compared to any Italian bureaucratic office. I’m doing citizenship right now and could really relate to everything you said. But now you’re done and can move on to the important part-life together with Enrico!
Tia that's why there are some places called CAF where they know everything and help you with the process for like 50-60€ I Know I've worked in one. Seen lot of people getting there to ask for Cittadinanza, Rinnovo, Permessi di soggiorno and the likes
Ah, I forgot but I think you already know: in Italy there's a superstition about marrying or leaving for another destination on tuesday and friday, so I guess they cut the personnel on those days due to the low number of requests (but, actually, lots of people travel on friday and maybe they marry too)
I work in a "town hall" in a small town in Lombardy and I must say that I ALWAYS try to help people, if they don't bring something we let them carry the "revenue stamp" or something else later. I think that in the bigger cities the employees lose contact with the people. I believe that working in "town hall" should be considered a public service, but I have to say that many of my colleagues do not feel the same way and act as if people should thank them just because they are doing the bare minimum in their job.
I'm so happy for you TIA!!!!! I have followed you for so long and all your boyfriend vlogs with Enrico were so cute. Congrats on joining the wifey gang!!! Welcome to the club girl!
Congratulations!! Happy for you and Enrico. 😀 I admire your strength, courage, and perseverance. It's not an easy feat to get married over here. You did it! Cheering for you. I've lived in Italy with my Italian partner over 10 years now, and we have a 12 year old daughter. If we had gotten married, I could've applied for citizenship YEARS AGO, but since we're not married I've waited these 10 years of residency to even THINK about applying... 🤣Like do I even want citizenship at this point, and then to go through the Hell that you're going through?? The paperwork over here is PESANTE!! Don't even get me started on renewing the Permesso (I'm going through that now, and on top of it all I accidentally let my Permesso expire by 2 years LOL I truly didn't realize - the Police officer at the sportello side eyed me the whole time LOL then I had to get fingerprints in a backroom, thank goodness she was nice).... the Questura di Milano is a HOT MESS - even with an appointment, wait outside 1 hour (minimum), wait inside 4 hours, never enough seats (I stood for 3 hours), then after the window, come back in a month WHEN/IF they send you a text to let you know you can come pick it up. "distanza di sicurezza" non-existent. Everyone in there just turning blind eyes all around. 😩 Even my partner, who has lived in the Milan area for 20 years said the place needed help. And I can't get started with those "marco da bollos" Oh Lord help us!!! And how we stranieri are often treated, sometimes if I don't walk out I know I'm gonna end up in prison. 🤣 I also noticed that when you mention wedding or baby to Italians - they make MIRACLES happen! 😆 So happy for you and Enrico. Wishing you both a lifetime of laughter, good wine, and love. : )
Congrats Tia and Enrico ❤❤ Welcome to Italy with all the ups and downs. I am married to an Italian but we got married in the Caribbean.. Sending love from Torino..
Hi Tia! I've been following you since 2015 and even if I don't know you personally I'm so happy for all your accomplishments. Auguri ragazzi I wish you all the best!
Wow...what an evolution for you and your life! Great to see the growth!! I remember having a few exchanges with you about you and Enrico visiting Fano (where he is from if I'm not mistaken!). Really inspiring to see how far you've come...to your continued success!
It is so funny... how similar the situations for so many people are :) Do you think that the processes of/from both countries made marriage less romantic/fairytale? This is something I sortuve noticed is that due to having different nationalities (especially non-eu) the bureaucracy trumped the romanticism of marriage. Which is not necessarily a bad thing!
100% there were so many points where I was like “why are we actually doing this? Will it really make that much of a difference” 😅 also the dragged out nature of it gave us time to work on some final issues and humps that we def had to get on the same page on before being legal tied until death 😂 I didn’t feel like I was getting married until the second it happened so maybe it was better, even though this was hella stressful I can’t imagine how much more stressful it would have been had I been more financially and emotionally invested.. this was surprisingly the best way to do it for sure!
Congratulations to you both ❤️ May God bless your union to be healthy, whole and prosperous. I can't wait to see how beautifully your family grows. I'm new to your channel. You remind me so much of my beautiful daughter in law ❣️
Omg Tia! Congratulazioni per il matrimonio 😍!! dopo tanti anni passati a seguire il tuo canale, mi fa così piacere saperti felice insieme ad Enrico 😍Eravate bellissimi alla cerimonia ❤️😍un big hug!! Io non penso mi sposerò, ma in compenso ho avuto una baby girl che ora ha 3 mesi 🎢😁💪🏼 congrats a Noi! 😂 Ps. Ma che casino è stato trovare tutti i documenti necessari al matrimonio e prendere gli appuntamenti??!! 😱Roba da matti! Comunque, in quello screenshot parla di "ulteriore marca da bollo" quindi si suppone ne sarebbero servite 2..🙄🤣😌Come al solito, in Italia invece di semplificare, si rende la vita più difficile a chiunque 🤦🏽♀️
I'm happy you both finally tied the knot. Congratulations! I haven't watched your videos in a while but I'm glad I found out about this! Again congratulations!
Omg Tia!! I’m so happy for you two!! ❤️❤️ congratulations!! 😍🥂 I’ve been following for many years and I feel like I saw you grow up! 🥲 and look at you now ☺️☺️ it just sucks that you had to go through all that mess with the comune di Milano, but now, what a relief! And you can focus on planning your wedding party. Can’t wait to see what you have in store!! 🥰🥰😘😘
@@CatMoca except for saturday, wich its name derived from jewish "shabbat", every days' name of the week come frome classical mythology. Lunedì wich is monday, literally means moon's day, and so on with Martedì (Tuesday) mars' day, Mercoledì (Wednesday) mercury's day, Giovedì (Thursday) Jupiter's day, Venerdì (Friday) venus' day. Saturday from shabbat, and for sunday it's quite interesting, because the english kept the pagan origins, while in italian is Domenica wich means Lord's day.
@@CatMoca Of course, Tuesday is "Martedí", the day of Mars. In my Latin America school we were taught the origin of weekdays names when we were studying Greek and Roman Mythologies.
Congratulations Tia 😘😘 I am so happy for you, i have been your subscriber since forever and i am just so freaking happy, i feel like i know you guys personally..... I wish you all the best and many many many years of bliss❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘
Congratulations!!!🥳 I've been following you since the very beginning of your channel, it is so weird how much you know about a person you've never met. I am so happy for both of you!

By the way, I married in Italy with an italian guy from a different region, and that came with some burocratic difficulties, but nothing compared to the process of finding a priest available for the day we had planned.. it was surreal, we wanted to marry in the region of origin of my husband (in this way we could afford to offer the hotel to the part of the family that had to travel, which was my family that is smaller) , and no priest wanted to marry us because we weren't resident in the region.. luckily we found a kind one that accepted after we started begging.. one of the priest said to us:" saturday afternoon I go to the market to get groveries, I cannot marry you". Ooooook...
Talk about the crisis of Catholic church concerning the lack of priestly vocations .... but as South American, I wouldn't feel I am engaging for life without getting married in a lovely ceremony in church in front of a catholic priest, without having my close loved ones surrounding me while wishing endless love and beautiful children, an engagement as important as life itself. Tradition is so strong and we expect this when we start looking for "Mr. Right".
Been here for so long and I’m so excited and happy for you! Congrats! I’ve watched this journey and it’s a privilege that you’ve shared it with us.
You can't get married on tuesday?? Omg!!🤣 LIKE COME ON PEOPLE!
We have a saying in Italy that states that you can’t get married nor leave for a trip on tuesday and friday 😂
“Né di Venere né di Marte, non si sposa né si parte”
@@eleclettica veramente? O:
@@lorenzosignorini3288 sì, ma non credo sia per questo che a Milano non ti puoi sposare di martedì. Sarà perché le sale sono disponibili solo alcuni giorni al settimana.
@@eleclettica It's the same in an old Spanish saying, "En martes, ni te cases ni te embarques" (On a Tuesday, don't get married nor sail away"). By the way, as an Empire and being a Penisola, Romans probably taught it to the Spaniards when they conquered Spain before Christ. Needless to say, that silly superstition shouldn't be the real cause of that Milan regulation.
You are so put together, well spoken, articulate, intelligent, ambitious, motivated, inspiring, gorgeous, hardworking and so much more..
I just like listening and following your informative vlogs..I rarely comment but I'm always here.
I also love when you talk about the requirements and criteria needed for acquiring different documents there. Please keep showing that it's very interesting to me.
Congrats to you both on your wedding.
God bless..
wow! what a hectic adventure! but so proud of you! and so happy that goal was accomplished, one way or another! Cheers to an amazing "second/Big" wedding day! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ And Happy marriage!
Congratulazioni a the two newly weds! 🥳 You made a tear drop from my eyes! 🥲 Many blessings and prosperity to come to you two! 🫂😘
Very happy for you both, Tia! (And much respect for successfully surviving the journey through that hell that our bureaucracy is. Unfortunately in many other fields, as well). Be happy! My warmest wishes !
Sto piangendo dall'emozione!! Siete bellissimi, tanti auguri 🥂 🍾
Wow, Congratulations and be happy!!!! It is nice to know that you both love each other enough to make that step forward.
Congratulations to you and Enrico!! I’m very happy for the both of you and I wish you a happy marriage! Been routing for you from day dot 🙌🏾
Congratulations! You are keeping it real because most times it's not a formal proposal it's a conversation between two people who decide to get married. Wish you all the best!
Congrats! wish u both a life full of happiness!!! 👏🏻🌷
You are so kind, thank you!
congrats Tia! omg this video made me so emotional😭, che siano sempre giorni pieni di amore💜
Congratulations!! I’m so happy for you two !! ❤️ Anyway as much as I love my country, I know how complicated the procedures for almost everything are, also they never tell you exactly what you need to bring to do something and so you will always have to come back million times. Now that I’m studying law, I know that procedures are so complicated because of their origins (Roman, Germanic and catholic laws, etc…), but if the office workers were just a little bit more efficient it wouldn’t be so difficult to do almost anything 😅Anyway now you are out of the woods and I’m really happy for you 🥰
You look absolutely beautiful with your natural hair 😍
Félicitations Tia to you and Enrico!!! Wishing you well with many happy years of being married. This year will be our 30th wedding anniversary. Hard to believe I've been living in France 32 years so more than half my life. Remember that time flies so quickly. Enjoy!
Congrats! I just found your channel and I've surprised myself I actually watched the whole thing.....To sum it all up: YOU are the total package, I love your look, I love your energy, you are amazing, your husband is a blessed man.....🥰🌺🌹🥀🌿
Aaaah! Congrats! I've been watching you for so long and I'm so happy for the both of y'all!
SO WELL SAID. Everything now a days.... is nothing but stress. You nailed it!
Congratulations to you both! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness! Italian bureaucracy is hilarious. I guess if you are tough enough to get through all the bureaucracy, your marriage will surely last the test of time. LOL
"You can't get married on Tuesday" killed me. LOL it was a bit complicated to marry a foreigner here in the states during the pandemic....Obvio not as complicated but making appointments were frustrating. I too, didn't want to have my wedding the same month as my birthday (March) but we had to if we didn't want to wait. My ceremony also became more then what I actually wanted it to be, but anyway I totally understand. However wasn't the day so magical even after all of the bureaucracy? Well it was for me :-)
Are u approve of by YAHAWA god.
Che belli che siete 🥺🥺🥺 Contentissima per voi, vi auguro il meglio 🤍🤍
Congratulations, Tia and Enrico!!!! I wish you both happiness and many blessings
Hey Tia! I’ve been following you since the very beginning, and I was always fascinated by the fact that we had a lot in common…just reversed. I moved from Milan to New York in 2014. Lot of bureaucracy on my side too as an Italian international student in the US. Then last year I got married, and because of the pandemic my husband and I also chose to do a small city hall wedding. Kinda similar situation where no body really knew the date we were going to get married and so we picked a date randomly… February 24th 2021!!! 😅
So yeah… just felt compelled to comment!
Congratulazioni a te ed Enrico!!! 🎉
Been here since the very start.
Feels surreal. Wanna give you guys a huge hug. 💚💚💚💚💚
Haven’t even finish the video and I HAVE to say CONGRATULATIONS before watching the rest🍾✨❤️🤩🙌🏾 . You’re glowing Tia 🥺SO HAPPY FOR YOU GIRL🙌🏾
Congrats to you both! Wishing you a wonderful & blessed union! Take care!🙂
I am so happy for you. Mrs. Tia! What a beautiful moment for you and your husband! You are glowing!😍✨
Congratulations! I wish you all a happy and loving future together ❤️
Congratulations! I have been following you on TH-cam since the Bocconi days and I am very happy to watch all your achievements throughout these years 😊
Tia I'm so happy for you and I'm not a fan of weddings 💕 seeing it pop up on my Instagram feed was such a nice surprise and it looked different and cute, congratulations!! (The bureaucracy part made me laugh out loud in order not to cry and reminded me why I'm not in Italy anymore + why I get angry and tired when I have to deal with its bureaucracy 💀)
Tanti auguriiii!!! You’re right, the American consulate in Milan is a breath of fresh air compared to any Italian bureaucratic office. I’m doing citizenship right now and could really relate to everything you said. But now you’re done and can move on to the important part-life together with Enrico!
Congratulations 🎉 I was just checking in to see what’s new from Tia! May you have all the happiness in the world ❤
Tia that's why there are some places called CAF where they know everything and help you with the process for like 50-60€ I Know I've worked in one. Seen lot of people getting there to ask for Cittadinanza, Rinnovo, Permessi di soggiorno and the likes
Congratsss
thank you lizzie🥰
I’m glad that his family made it so special
Awe! Tia! I remember when you first made videos moving to Italy years ago and have been such a fan of you! Congratulations to you and Enrico! ❤️
Ah, I forgot but I think you already know: in Italy there's a superstition about marrying or leaving for another destination on tuesday and friday, so I guess they cut the personnel on those days due to the low number of requests (but, actually, lots of people travel on friday and maybe they marry too)
OMG, you were stunning! Like out of a fashion magazine! Congrats guys!!!
16:57 this is precious, you deserved all the love even if your family couldn't be there, congrats 🤩
I work in a "town hall" in a small town in Lombardy and I must say that I ALWAYS try to help people, if they don't bring something we let them carry the "revenue stamp" or something else later. I think that in the bigger cities the employees lose contact with the people. I believe that working in "town hall" should be considered a public service, but I have to say that many of my colleagues do not feel the same way and act as if people should thank them just because they are doing the bare minimum in their job.
Congratulazioni Tia, è una cosa davvero grande. Vi auguri tantissimi anni felici💫
grazie evelyn!!
I'm so happy for you TIA!!!!! I have followed you for so long and all your boyfriend vlogs with Enrico were so cute. Congrats on joining the wifey gang!!! Welcome to the club girl!
Congratulations!! Happy for you and Enrico. 😀 I admire your strength, courage, and perseverance. It's not an
easy feat to get married over here. You did it! Cheering for you.
I've lived in Italy with my Italian partner over 10 years now, and we have a 12 year old daughter. If we had gotten married, I could've applied for citizenship YEARS AGO, but since we're not married I've waited these 10 years of residency to even THINK about applying... 🤣Like do I even want citizenship at this point, and then to go through the Hell that you're going through?? The paperwork over here is PESANTE!!
Don't even get me started on renewing the Permesso (I'm going through that now, and on top of it all I accidentally let my Permesso expire by 2 years LOL I truly didn't realize - the Police officer at the sportello side eyed me the whole time LOL then I had to get fingerprints in a backroom, thank goodness she was nice).... the Questura di Milano is a HOT MESS - even with an appointment, wait outside 1 hour (minimum), wait inside 4 hours, never enough seats (I stood for 3 hours), then after the window, come back in a month WHEN/IF they send you a text to let you know you can come pick it up. "distanza di sicurezza" non-existent. Everyone in there just turning blind eyes all around. 😩 Even my partner, who has lived in the Milan area for 20 years said the place needed help. And I can't get started with those "marco da bollos" Oh Lord help us!!! And how we stranieri are often treated, sometimes if I don't walk out I know I'm gonna end up in prison. 🤣
I also noticed that when you mention wedding or baby to Italians - they make MIRACLES happen! 😆
So happy for you and Enrico. Wishing you both a lifetime of laughter, good wine, and love. : )
Congrats Tia and Enrico ❤❤ Welcome to Italy with all the ups and downs. I am married to an Italian but we got married in the Caribbean.. Sending love from Torino..
Omg! I’m soooooo happy for you you two! Congratulations Tia and Enrico!
Congratulations❤❤
It's incredible how far you have come! You're a whole "wife" now😍😍😍
Tia! I could cry! So amazing - congratulations to you two!!! Looked like a beautiful and sweet day!
Soooo happy for you!!! I wondered for a long time when you would get married! Congratulations!💖💖
Thank you so much!! here we are xD
Congratulazioni per questa tappa così importante. Cavolo quante cose sono cambiate dai tuoi primi video.
Hi Tia! I've been following you since 2015 and even if I don't know you personally I'm so happy for all your accomplishments. Auguri ragazzi I wish you all the best!
Wow...what an evolution for you and your life! Great to see the growth!! I remember having a few exchanges with you about you and Enrico visiting Fano (where he is from if I'm not mistaken!). Really inspiring to see how far you've come...to your continued success!
I have followed you for years. You are from the same area in CT I am (and I am Italian American). I am so very happy for your both!
It is so funny... how similar the situations for so many people are :) Do you think that the processes of/from both countries made marriage less romantic/fairytale? This is something I sortuve noticed is that due to having different nationalities (especially non-eu) the bureaucracy trumped the romanticism of marriage. Which is not necessarily a bad thing!
100% there were so many points where I was like “why are we actually doing this? Will it really make that much of a difference” 😅 also the dragged out nature of it gave us time to work on some final issues and humps that we def had to get on the same page on before being legal tied until death 😂 I didn’t feel like I was getting married until the second it happened so maybe it was better, even though this was hella stressful I can’t imagine how much more stressful it would have been had I been more financially and emotionally invested.. this was surprisingly the best way to do it for sure!
Congrats Tia!! 🥰🥰
Congratulations to you both ❤️ May God bless your union to be healthy, whole and prosperous. I can't wait to see how beautifully your family grows.
I'm new to your channel. You remind me so much of my beautiful daughter in law ❣️
Omg Tia! Congratulazioni per il matrimonio 😍!! dopo tanti anni passati a seguire il tuo canale, mi fa così piacere saperti felice insieme ad Enrico 😍Eravate bellissimi alla cerimonia ❤️😍un big hug!! Io non penso mi sposerò, ma in compenso ho avuto una baby girl che ora ha 3 mesi 🎢😁💪🏼 congrats a Noi! 😂
Ps. Ma che casino è stato trovare tutti i documenti necessari al matrimonio e prendere gli appuntamenti??!! 😱Roba da matti! Comunque, in quello screenshot parla di "ulteriore marca da bollo" quindi si suppone ne sarebbero servite 2..🙄🤣😌Come al solito, in Italia invece di semplificare, si rende la vita più difficile a chiunque 🤦🏽♀️
I'm happy you both finally tied the knot. Congratulations! I haven't watched your videos in a while but I'm glad I found out about this! Again congratulations!
Congratulations to you both! May your love last a lifetime👰🏾🤵🏻💍💓💓💘💘💞💞
Major congratulations on this big milestone and moment Tia! Wow! Married!!!!! ♥️♥️♥️ May you both have many more years of joy together!
i love this Tia! such a blessing! congrats to you both!!
What a Beautiful
Couple !!!! 💕
All the Happiness to
You Both 🙌
Congratulations 👏
Omg Tia!! I’m so happy for you two!! ❤️❤️ congratulations!! 😍🥂 I’ve been following for many years and I feel like I saw you grow up! 🥲 and look at you now ☺️☺️ it just sucks that you had to go through all that mess with the comune di Milano, but now, what a relief! And you can focus on planning your wedding party. Can’t wait to see what you have in store!! 🥰🥰😘😘
“In Milan you can’t get married on a Tuesday” I screamed out loud laughing 😭 those people are sick 💀💀💀💀
That’s because Né di Venere né di Marte ci si sposa né si parte! 😅😅
@@lorenagiuria5798 wait does Mars sound like Tuesday in Italian?
@@CatMoca except for saturday, wich its name derived from jewish "shabbat", every days' name of the week come frome classical mythology.
Lunedì wich is monday, literally means moon's day, and so on with
Martedì (Tuesday) mars' day, Mercoledì (Wednesday) mercury's day,
Giovedì (Thursday) Jupiter's day, Venerdì (Friday) venus' day.
Saturday from shabbat, and for sunday it's quite interesting, because the english kept the pagan origins, while in italian is Domenica wich means Lord's day.
@@CatMoca Of course, Tuesday is "Martedí", the day of Mars. In my Latin America school we were taught the origin of weekdays names when we were studying Greek and Roman Mythologies.
@@lorenagiuria5798 La versione giusta sarebbe: "DI VENERE E DI MARTE, NON SI SPOSA E NON SI PARTE, NON SI DÀ PRINCIPIO ALL'ARTE" 😉
