IN THE BEGINNING ...

John was my gym instructor. He doesn't believe me but I always had a massive crush on him. His positive energy just captured my heart. Our first date was a run from the gym to a café and back. I must have impressed him by keeping up with his pace!

LEADING UP TO THE BIG DAY ...

I wasn’t the kind of girl that had spent much time envisaging the “big day” but as soon as I saw the GATHER flowers, I just knew that I wanted them. The video chat with the florist was so reassuring and made the whole process so smooth.

ON THE DAY ...

Our wedding was at Half Acre (South Melbourne) in August. The day of course flew by but was just so perfect. We both said to each other that we would not have changed a single thing. Spending time capturing our 'first look' photos was priceless.

ON REFLECTION ...

Just have fun, enjoy the food, drinks and company. If you want people to dance (like we did), just stay on the dancefloor and people will come and join you! Make sure to stay present and share special moments together throughout the day and night.

LOOKING FORWARD ...

Not a lot has changed, aside from just getting used to calling each other “husband” and “wife”! We are so excited for our next chapter and can’t wait to travel overseas next year for our belated honeymoon and cancelled 2020 trip (thanks COVID!).
