Paul: "Count me in as well. I'll make sure the speeches are heartfelt and after I'll hand my cash gift..."

Brixx: "I'll take care of the music playlist. We need the perfect mix... After the dance, the surprise I have for them, I'll hand... maybe a key to a high end house and lot will not be a shame."

Aldrixx: "And I'll capture every special moment with my camera...after taking shots of  the precious tokens."

Raphael: "Thank you all, friends. Your support means the world to us."

Marco: "Indeed. Let's make sure Andrei and Fides' wedding is a celebration they'll cherish forever."
