"People say everyone writes their own story. I was lucky to write it together with you." This is one of the messages hung on the Tree of Love, placed in the Home of Newlyweds in the city Plovdiv on the occasion of St. Valentine's Day.

Employees of the municipal enterprise "Joyful Rites" invite citizens of Plovdiv and guests to choose this unusual way to say "I love you" to someone or even make a marriage proposal. They add that expressing one’s feelings and hanging a message on the two birch branches from which the Tree of Love is made would bring people love and luck.

The messages will be uploaded on Facebook on February 14 - St. Valentine’s Day. On this day, seven couples will get married in Plovdiv.
