Ukrainian journalist and interviewer Ramina Eshakhzai, in an exclusive conversation with Radio Lux published by the Styler publication, spoke in detail about her wedding plans with her fiancé, who is serving in the army. The couple has already discussed a possible timeframe for the celebration, but the exact date has still not been determined. According to Eshakhzai, the key factor in choosing the time was the circumstances surrounding her chosen one's military service.
Why winter specifically and why not the upcoming one
In the interview, journalist explained the logic behind choosing the season: the couple is considering a period when the intensity of combat operations is statistically lower. «We discussed that this should be a period when there is a lower probability of the enemy advancing and no assault actions on our part. That is, in all likelihood, it turns out to be the winter period,» Eshakhzai explained. At the same time, the couple no longer has time to prepare the celebration for the upcoming winter, so they are aiming for the 2027–2028 season. The specific month and day have not been named at this time.
Dress, venue, and organizational chores
Despite the fact that the date is in the future, Ramina admitted that she does not yet imagine what her wedding should be like. She has not decided on either a wedding dress or the venue for the celebration. The journalist described the organizational tasks as tedious: «I'm so lazy to organize all this because you have to give tasks to people, explain how you want it, and I don't know how I want it yet.» The couple is also considering the option of officially registering their marriage at the civil registry office first and holding the celebration later when circumstances permit.
How the proposal happened: dinner by the ocean and a ring in the dark
During the conversation, Eshakhzai recalled the moment of the engagement itself. She admitted that she was expecting a proposal because her beloved had previously spoken about his readiness to marry: «I expected to be proposed to because my fiancé said he was ready, that he was charged and waiting for the moment.» The romantic evening took place during a joint vacation. Ramina assumed the proposal would happen on their anniversary, but the moment came only a few days later. The man organized a dinner by the ocean and then invited his chosen one to approach closer to the water. Already in the dark, he took out the ring. «I was so sincerely happy for him, first of all not for myself, because the person made up his mind, tried hard and organized everything like that,» the journalist shared.
"Collection for five fingers" and a family tradition
The program host recalled that Eshakhzai had previously received marriage proposals twice before, but it never led to a wedding. Ramina responded with humor: «I treat very beautiful rings wonderfully. And I even joked that I am collecting a collection for five fingers for myself.» She also shared an unexpected family story: her mother was proposed to seven times before she finally agreed. Eshakhzai expressed hope that this time everything will work out and she will still get married.
