Love Stories
Christian and I grew up together in our hometown of Wollongong. We went through school together and were friends from the age of 16. Life took us in different directions for a while, until we reconnected at a mutual friend's party when we were 22. Sparks were ignited instantly and the rest was history.

We created an amazing outdoor space under festoons for our reception and the rest of the celebrations to take place. With a ‘build your own burger bar’, a hay bale booth Giant Jenga, the most energetic dancefloor with our nearest and dearest, we created the wedding of our dreams and had the best time of our lives.

My best friend and I started the day with a sunrise walk around the Longview property before coming back to start hair and makeup. The ceremony was at Longview in a grassed area, overlooking the vineyards. I walked down the aisle being serenaded by one of our dearest friends. The ceremony had to be my favourite part of the day and I will never forget the feeling of marrying my best friend with all my loved ones there to witness it!

We were originally going to have a big wedding in France, but due to COVID-19, we ended up having a smaller and more intimate affair in a garden setting, surrounded by wildflowers and trees. Our wedding day was stormy and rainy but I wouldn't have changed a thing as it truly was the best day of my life.

With the world so uncertain, our original plan of a destination wedding in Greece became out of the question. However, with all of my family home from overseas and our wedding priorities adjusted, we put together new wedding plans within a month. It was ambitious, crazy, fun, and exhausting, but so worth it! After all, the most important thing, we decided, was the union of us.
