On February 29th, 2008, Prime
Ministers Stephen Harper and
Milan Topolanek were meeting in
Toronto at the St. Wenceslas
Church. Tom was
catering the event
and Kristina just
h a p p e n e d t o b e
t h e r e t o h a v e
pictures taken with
the Prime Ministers.
They caught each
other’s eye early on
in the evening and,
after some harmless
flirting, exchanged
phone numbers .
Tom gave Kristina a
box of delicious pastries and won
her heart over.
A day later, Kristina went to The
Prague to ‘get some dumplings’
and see Tom again. Unfortunately,
both were seeing other people at
the time and it took a few months
before they saw each other again.
In early June, Kristina had a photo-
shoot nearby and stopped in at the
restaurant only to find out that she
and Tom were both going to Europe
on the same day!
Unfortunately, they
did not get to meet
up while they were
there. However, two
days after they got
back, they met up at
Czech and Slovak
C a n a d a D a y a t
Masaryktown on
J u n e 2 1 s t -
Midsummer Night.
Along with a large
b o n f i r e a n d a
spectacular full moon, love was in
the air. She and Tom spent the
whole night getting to know each
other. This was their first night as a
couple and although Kristina
moved to Ottawa two weeks later,
they made it through the long-
distance relationship. Six months
later, Kristina relocated back to
Toronto, and moved in with Tom. 9
Love at First Sight

The Proposal
Tom chose the perfect time and day
to propose - the one day Kristina
would not have expected him to do
so. It was a complete surprise.
Monday, June 21st, 2010, the day
after the Miss Czech
and Slovak Canada
Pageant where she won
as First Vice Miss, all
her thoughts were still
on the excitement of
the day before. It was a l s o
their two-year anniversary, so when
Tom came into the room with wine
and a present, Kristina didn’t think
anything so life-changing would be
coming her way. The present was a
white wedding garter, which was
Tom’s way of expressing just how
serious he was about proposing soon,
‘but he couldn’t afford the ring yet’.
Kristina laughed it off, put the garter
aside, and when she looked back,
Tom dropped to one knee holding a
small box, inside of which was a ring.
Kristina was so shocked that she
couldn’t believe it was happening
until Tom actually
spoke the words: “Will
y o u m a r r y m e ? ” .
Kristina responded with
an immediate “Yes!”,
followed by a sudden
emotional burst of
laughing and crying. The couple
happily shared the exciting news with
their families the next day.
That whole week was spent
celebrating. Tuesday, they went for a
nice dinner together. Wednesday and
Thursday they met up with friends,
and on Friday, Tom took Kristina to
see a ballet performance of Onegin. 9
Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in
looking outward together in the same direction.

Future Plans
The future looks bright for Tom and
Kristina. After the wedding, they plan on
moving to British Columbia as soon as
they can. They plan on settling on
Vancouver Island, somewhere north of
Victoria, where they can build their
dream house, complete with a Food
Studio for Tom and a Dance Studio for
Kristina. They look forward to having
children in the next year or two, so you
can look forward to seeing those little
faces soon enough - no need to pressure
this couple. Although it will be difficult
to leave family and friends in Toronto,
Tom and Kristina believe that the West
Coast will be best for the kind of life they
want to lead and raise their children in.
All are welcome to visit them in their
new home, once they find it. View this as
just another reason to go for a vacation
in Beautiful British Columbia.
Tom and Kristina will continue to keep
in touch with family and friends, but if
you ever need to contact them, you can
always email them at:

The Crest
The vines that surround the crest
form a heart shape, which is symbolic
of their joint love for nature.
The banner’s Latin quote, ‘Per aspera ad astra’ means ‘Through hardships to the Stars’. It is to remind Tom & Tyna that life might be difficult at times, but as long as they have each other they will reach the stars and realize their dreams.
The bunny and the kitty cat have a
particularly special meaning. Some
of you might know that the root of
Kristina’s last name, Kott, means
‘tomcat’ in Old Slavic. The bunny
on the other hand might have
some of you confused, since Tom’s
last name, Král, means ‘king’. Here
is the fairytale of ‘The Rabbit
King’. One day Tom the King came
to the castle of a noble family,
having been invited for dinner. The
mother of the Princess was a very
clever magician. She had mastered
the art of ridicule. Unaware, The
King came to the dinner party.
Within seconds, the Princess’
mother added an endearing
E v e r y K i n g h a s a c r e s t t h a t

strength, achievements, hopes and
dreams. Tom & Tyna made one based
on the symbolism of their joint families.

diminutive to the King’s name,
turning him from Král (king) into
Králíček (little king).
Unfortunately, the same word also
means “little rabbit”. Since Czechs
eat rabbits, the palace immediately
put knives to the poor Rabbit King’s
throat. However, the good Princess
saw how handsome the Rabbit King
was, and so she saved him from his
fate. With one true love’s kiss, the
spell was broken. The Rabbit King
turned back into his original form,
saving him from the fiery oven. And
this is why Tom has become known
as ‘bunny’ and therefore the tasty
animal graces the couple’s crest.
The End 9
The crown signifies Tom’s last name, Kral, which means ‘king’ in Czech (also one of the reasons for the medievally-inspired theme).
The mountains symbolize two things: originally, Tyna’s family has a coat of arms that depicts the White Mountain in the Czech Republic. It also symbolizes Tom & Tyna’s move to the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia.
The scales on the top of the crest, and
the arrow holding the scales up,
symbolize Tom & Tyna’s astrological
signs, Libra and Sagittarius.
