After Tim Haggstrom and Ana Tiruta said their wedding day \u201cI dos,\u201d Tim\u2019s speech jokingly credited the dating app Hinge as their \u201cunofficial\u201d wedding day sponsor. For him, June 12, 2022 \u2014 their first date after matching on Hinge \u2014 marked the day he met his future wife.<\/p>\n

Their first date quickly led to a second, and, as the dates flowed into each other, Tim had a profound realization about the woman he had fallen for. \u201cI pictured the two of us growing old together and realized that is what I wanted with all my heart,\u201d says Tim.<\/p>\n

Three weeks into dating, the couple said, \u201cI love you.\u201d<\/p>\n

During a summer trip to France in August 2024, Tim took the next step toward making that vision come true by proposing to Ana, who happily said yes.<\/p>\n

When it came time to choose their venue, Ana jokes that it was a \u201cmanifestation moment.\u201d She had long envisioned a place with an elegant building, a lush outdoor garden for dining and socializing, and exceptional cuisine.<\/p>\n

Rouge<\/a>, which she had always admired from afar, turned out to be perfect for their wedding on July 24, 2025.<\/p>\n

With only 40 guests at the wedding, the day had an intimate atmosphere. Simple, yet elegant decorations, like the floral arrangements and fabric draped over tree branches forming a natural arch, enhanced the venue\u2019s charm. Behind the scenes, the Rouge team ensured everything ran seamlessly, allowing Tim and Ana to fully enjoy their special day.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe staff were so well organized, friendly and thoughtful,\u201d says Ana. \u201cThey made it easy for us to relax and enjoy the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

When reflecting on their day, Tim cherishes the opportunities for those serene moments with Ana. \u201cThere were instances when we could glance at each other, take in the moment, and feel like it was just the two of us,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n
