Bruiloft Arnoud & Gaia

Welcome dear friends and family of Arnoud and Gaia, and of course welcome dear Arnoud and Gaia, Ravi and Luna.

How nice that you are all here to celebrate this beautiful day together, especially the ones who came here from Italy and France.

We now turn to the website Arnoud built, so scan the QR code, open the website and read along on your phone, in your own language.

My name is Armelle, Arnoud's sister and this is Violet, a friend of Arnoud's. We will be the master of ceremonies for today.

Violet: I've known Arnoud since high school, since we were 12 years old. And from high school Arnoud has been thinking in possibilities:

'Couldn't we find a solution to the economic system, building an exchange system for services without money?'

Or, 'Couldn't we build a hinge in this table, making it also a bank?'

The theme is always, "Couldn't we come up with a solution for that?

So of course Arnoud also asked himself, "Couldn't we do this wedding in three languages?"

The answer was: yes. He thought: I can build a website that translates the speeches into 3 languages. And he did a great job of that.

So that we can collectively enjoy all the stories here today.

It will not be a perfect translation everywhere, because we have not been able to check the machine translation everywhere, but hopefully you can still enjoy all the stories.

Was everyone able to follow it in their own language?

Stick your thumb in the air if you were able to read along with the text on your phone
