Asim Ansari, a Canadian physician based in Detroit, and Sidra Khan, a product manager at FedEx, met on a dating app in 2017. They were set to be married in September 2020, but had to reschedule their wedding three times due to multiple lockdowns. Finally, they were able to tie the knot at the Sayeda Khadija Centre mosque in January. Here’s how it happened.

We went for a walk at Creditview Park in Brampton and hit it off instantly.
