I would like to propose a toast. Stéphane and I, we've known each other since nursery school. We've discovered and shared everything together. Then one day, you came to see me and you said to me: "This is it! This time, I know it, she's perfect! - Who are you talking about? - I'm talking about the love of my life, of course! A week ago, I met this incredible woman, we spent hours on the phone, and I'm going to marry her!" And today, he did it! My congratulations to the newlyweds!

Clever stuff happening!
