Flashback to November last year for Hamish and Bianca's Modern Classic Wedding. They say if it rains on your wedding day it signifies your marriage will last! A knot that becomes wet is extremely hard to untie. Therefore to 'tie the knot' on a wet day your marriage is just as hard to unravel. It didn't rain, it poured! 🍾🥂

HURRAH 🙌🙌 So very excited to be able to marry our beautiful couples again...very soon! Over lockdown we have begged, bribed and extorted (well nearly, but it does feel like it!!), our lovely collective of vendors to find new dates for the postponed wedding. It's been tough for vendors, couples and us, but we hold our heads high, onwards and upwards. We are back!! 🖤

Megan & Nicholas' Proposal Story 🍾💍

Megan's Version:
"Nick proposed, and I was not expecting it in the slightest. We were at the snow with friends, and it was just the 2 of us. My snow boots had been a little uncomfortable, so I decided I wanted to go fix them. Well Nick had other ideas and kept trying to cuddle me and be romantic. Well I had other plans and tried to get away from him. Until he got down on 1 knee. I was shocked. I didn't know what to say. I just kept asking if he was serious. over and over again.
Then, without thinking, I took the ring out of the box, and put it on my finger. Then realised I hadn't actually said yes!! Which was why Nick hadn't moved yet. So I said yes. we hugged alot, then I realised our friends had come back early and were wandering around the house behind us. Then reaLised NICK WAS FILMING THE WHOLE THING!!! I was ​​shocked. but excited. It was a fantastic moment."

Nicholas' Version:
"A couple of years into our relationship I left Victoria for work. Leavening friends, family and above all Megan was the hardest thing I had to do. Megan and I spent a year apart with few visits between. My decision to propose was based on whether Megan moved up to Port Hedland with me.
In 2015 I traveled to Victoria for my mothers surprise 50th birthday. I quickly realized this was the only trip I was away long enough from Megan to hunt around for an engagement ring and also ask her parents' blessing to spend the rest of our lives together. Once I had the ring in my possession the last thing I wanted was to lose it or worse have it stolen. So when I returned to Hedland I made sure that it was kept in the safest of all places... Berried 1 meter in the ground under a trailer parked over it. It remained there for 3 months until it had a holiday to the snow. I proposed on the 28th September 2015 at Falls Creek snow resort."

Pam & Daryl - Vows straight from the heart 🖤

Daryl's Vows:
"From the moment I first saw you I was captured by your smile. In our early weeks together we quickly realised we shared similar values on; raising children, the importance of family, and the need to work hard to succeed in business.
Our similar passions for music, exercise, socialising with friends, and travel bonded us together, far quicker than either of us could have imagined.
You soon become my soul mate, who helped me rediscover life and love.
And four wonderful years on you continue to amaze me......you are never angry, never judgemental, always positive, but sufficiently cautious to balance my eternal optimism.
You have become my best friend and confidante.
You are a wonderful mother, so caring, protective, and passionate.
You are the most generous person I have ever met, happy to donate the little we have to others in need.
I am truly blessed to have found someone as amazing as you propose to me.....how could I say no!
So before you change your mind, I am delighted to call upon everyone present to witness that I, Daryl, take you, Pamela, to be my lawfully wedded wife
With this ring, I join my life with yours."

Pam's Vows:
"The love I have for you Daryl is the love I never saw coming. The one that looked all wrong for us.
This is the love that came so easy it didn’t seem possible.
Our connection can’t be explained but we just fit.
We have no expectation about how we should act
There is no pressure to become someone other than who we already are. This is the love that just feels right without any rationale.
There is something so mesmerising, so beautiful, and just a little bit frightening about seeing a man love your children as if they were his own. The love you have for Xavier, Autumn, and me is shown in everything you do, every single day. And I promise to never take those small things for granted.
I call upon the persons here present to witness that I, Pamela, take you, Daryl, to be my lawful wedded husband.
With this ring, I join my life with yours."
