“Troy popped the question in May 2015 while we were having lunch at Margan Estate in the Hunter Valley.\u00a0 We often go out for lunch on the weekend and I had organized this particular date, so had no inkling that Troy was going to propose \u2013 it was the best surprise ever!!\u00a0 He proposed just with a diamond and we picked the setting together the following week.\u00a0 After lunch, he surprised me again by taking me to my parents’ house where our immediate families were waiting for us for a mini celebration.”<\/p>\n

“I knew I wanted a slim-line style with a train.\u00a0 I chose the Pronovias ‘Vicenta’ gown because of its delicate features, including the lace detail and illusion neck-line, but it still had wow factor (like the low cut back and amazing train!).\u00a0 As soon as I tried it on I knew it was something special.”<\/p>\n

“Walking down the aisle with my father and seeing tears in Troy’s eyes (and most of the guest’s eyes!). It was a very special and unique moment.”<\/p>\n

“I wanted classic styling, and the venue needed only minimal decorations given its spectacular views.\u00a0 I had envisioned a gold and white style, but added in navy blue to warm the palette on advice from my decorator and am so glad I did.”<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\nRELATIONSHIP ADVICE<\/h2>\n
“Always find time to talk (about everything) and laugh!”<\/p>\n

“Nothing \u2013 I was really happy with everything on the day.”<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\nPlanning Advice<\/h2>\n
“Allow yourself plenty of time so that you can enjoy the process, give yourself plenty of options and not feel time-pressured.\u00a0 (We had nearly two years to plan, which was good because we moved cities and both changed jobs during the first 12 months of our engagement, so that took a lot of our time).\u00a0 I would also recommend a wedding planner and decorator to take away any worries about set-up on the day.<\/p>\n
Most importantly, take a moment on the day \u2013 even if only a minute \u2013 as a couple to cherish the moment and acknowledge you just got married!”<\/p>\n
