Katja Burkard ties the knot in matrimony
In a heartwarming ceremony, RTL moderator Katja Burkard exchanged vows with media manager Hans Mahr. The couple's nuptials took place in a small chapel, a place that holds special significance for them, as it was the same chapel where their daughters had been baptised.
The wedding ceremony in Austria took place on Saturday, but the name of the priest who officiated the ceremony remains undisclosed in the available sources. Interestingly, the couple had initially exchanged vows in a white neckholder dress during a private ceremony on the Maldives, where Hans Mahr had proposed to Katja Burkard in April.
Katja Burkard, who is 60 years old, shared a photo of the wedding on Instagram with the caption, "We said YES and are very happy." The post also included a beautiful picture of the couple, beaming with joy.
Hans Mahr, who is 76 years old, was present with only their two daughters and Mahr's sons at the civil ceremony. In an interview, Katja Burkard mentioned that they had been asked when they would marry and stated that all those milestones had passed, and nothing could keep them apart.
Despite initially saying they would marry when their first child started school, then when the second child started school, then when the first child started driving school, and when the second child started driving school, the couple finally tied the knot. Their love story serves as a reminder that sometimes, timing is everything.
