Marforey and Azalia first met in Alcala, Pangasinan, during a Family Home Evening held at a member’s home. At that time, Marforey was serving as a missionary assigned in Alcala, while Azalia was quiet and had only come to join the activity with the family. Marforey initially thought she was an investigator belonging to that household.
Their first date took place on June 5, 2022. Marforey traveled all the way from Dagupan to Alcala to meet her. They had lunch together at a farm, and afterward, they spent time visiting and fellowshipping with other members in the area, as that was where he was assigned to serve.
It was in an unexpected and lighthearted way that they officially became a couple on May 19. Azalia posted on social media saying, “I am open for a relationship; anyone who is interested may apply.” At that same time, Marforey had already planned to deactivate his Facebook account, but he suddenly remembered the advice from his mentor to begin looking for someone to date. He opened his account one last time, and there he saw Azalia’s post. Knowing her already as Sister Azalia, he decided to reach out. Azalia, on the other hand, had also been advised that if someone sincere and of good character approached her, she should accept. And so, that day, they officially began their relationship.
It turned out to be quite funny and unexpected. They were inside the sealing room, where the rings for Philip and Ate Abby’s wedding were being brought out. Marforey was sitting beside Azalia, and she happened to feel the ring box through his coat. She playfully told him, “Uy, labas mo na kasi ‘yang singsing na ‘yan.” He immediately replied, “Hindi, hindi nga ‘to singsing.”
She had no idea at that moment that he was actually planning to propose to her. After the ceremony, while everyone was taking group photos, he suddenly pulled her aside to the area near the temple sign. There, on February 28, 2026, he finally asked her to be his wife. It was, as she said, such a chaotic but wonderful day.
