In September, the city of Sinaia will turn into a fairytale land with princes, princesses, beautiful dresses, elegant world. Prince Nicolae of Romania and his fiancé Alina Binder will unite their destinies in the little royal town at the foot of the mountains.
For the first time the two talked about how the wedding will look, whom they invited, but also how Nicolae gave her the engagement ring and how Alina perceived the first meeting with the Prince's family.
The nephew of King Mihai and his fiancé Alina will get married in Biserica Sfântul Ilie in Sinaia. "Then we will spend the party at Casino Sinaia. We want to use this opportunity to show what Romania has, because many guests have never been here. There are many guests, from Europe, Australia, USA, from 13 countries in total. Of course, every member of my family will also receive an invitation to the wedding. I hope they will come."
Asked why he chose Sinaia for his wedding, Nicolae said that this city is very close to his family. "Here, we feel very well like at home. My family has left a mark on this city. I am connected to this city because Carol I came and built here the Peleş-Pelişor Castles and my family helped to develop the city. "
As for the bridal dress, Alina said she would like "to find some traditional, subtle details. I would like to have a classic line and feel relaxed in it, that it represents me. I would like it to be created by a Romanian designer."
Alina and Nicolae have been a couple about three years, and in July they will celebrate the first anniversary of their engagement.
"Our relationship has evolved. I've come to a point in my life when I felt ready to take the next step. Of course, I started with Alina's parents. I sat down with them and asked for Alina's hand. They said yes. It was the biggest challenge."
Alina says that marriage proposal "was a total surprise. I was in the office when he called me: "Why don't we go somewhere after you finish the job?" I did not know where we were going. It was incredible when I arrived in Cornwall, a special place for both, which he showed me at the very beginning when we moved to England".
Nicolae adds: "In the morning, I went to the beach, with a bottle of champagne. And as Alina watched the sunrise, I wrote on the sand, "I love you! Marry me!", I went down on my knees and gave her the ring."
And the story of the engagement ring is just as beautiful: "The ring is tied to earrings. When Alina turned 29, I gave her earrings. When I was in Sri Lanka, I bought the stones, then I made the earrings. When I chose the ring, I wanted to have a stone like at the earrings, a sapphire. And I made a ring with three stones: two diamonds and a sapphire", Nicolae confessed.
About the encounter with the Alina's family, he confessed that he had some emotions: "But I was welcomed with open arms, very friendly, relaxed. From the first day we got along well. Alina is very lucky to have a very united family."
Alina met Nicolae's family before she got married. "It was exciting, but I can't say I have spent a lot of time with his family."
The two of them say that when they saw for the first time, they understood each other perfectly, having a common passion.
"I like that he is spontaneous, courageous, has traveled to distant, wild areas, gave me the impression that he can handle it in any circumstances, he is a modest man, not at all arrogant. I was very impressed by the fact that in 2015, after his title was withdrawn, he chose to suffer in silence, not to make a case of his situation."
Nicolae tells that Alina is "a courageous person, who likes sport, smart, beautiful. We understood each other without much effort. That was important to me. Alina became my rock, after what happened in 2015 with the withdrawal of the prince title".
