A Modern Love Story: From Dating App to Dream Wedding in Verona
When Sereta downloaded Hinge during a quiet December in the UK, little did she know she was about to swipe right into her fairytale. Today, we’re taking you on a journey through her and Silvio’s enchanting love story that culminated in a breathtaking Italian wedding at the historic Villa Arvedi.
Their story began in December 2019, when Sereta, with no festive plans and plenty of free evenings, decided to try out “the dating app designed to be deleted.” Enter Silvio – the charming Ghanaian-Italian whose witty profile caught her eye. Their first date at a cozy Italian café turned into an impromptu bowling adventure, setting the tone for their whirlwind romance. The chemistry was instant, and despite Sereta’s nervous chatter and backup escape plan (a friend’s planned rescue call), the date lasted three magical hours.
The couple’s journey took them from casual dating to inseparable partners. In May 2024, Silvio orchestrated a romantic surprise that spanned two countries – Bali and Thailand. Under the stars, with fire dancers performing and fireworks spelling out “Will you marry me?” in the night sky, he presented Sereta with her dream ring. It was a proposal as unique as their love story.
Their celebration of love unfolded in three spectacular acts. First came their vibrant Yoruba-Ghanaian traditional wedding in May 2025, where two rich cultural heritages merged in a explosion of color, dance, and joy. The grand finale was their September 2025 white wedding in Verona – yes, the city of Romeo and Juliet!
At Villa Arvedi, surrounded by centuries-old frescoes and manicured Italian gardens, Sereta stunned in a sleeveless white gown while Silvio cut a dashing figure by her side. Their outdoor ceremony, framed by the villa’s timeless architecture and attended by loved ones from across the globe, was the perfect blend of elegance and romance.
From a simple dating app match to a cross-cultural celebration spanning continents, Sereta and Silvio’s love story proves that modern romance can be just as magical as any classical tale. Their journey reminds us that sometimes, the most beautiful stories begin with a simple swipe right.
