LOVE STORY
known from my modelling days captured the emotion of the day so beautifully that looking back through the photos left us speechless. Our videographer was equally brilliant, preserving the spirit and love of the day in a way we’ll treasure forever. One of my favourite memories was when the venue staff quietly pulled Jack and me aside for five minutes alone. In the whirlwind of it all, that brief pause to just be together meant everything. If I could go back, I’d tell myself to slow down and truly take it all in. The little details fade, but the emotions, the familiar faces, the overwhelming feeling of being surrounded by love - that’s what lingers. Our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. Weddings are about being with the people who mean the most to you. Life is so short, and with the loss of so many loved ones recently, I’ve come to cherish that kind of love even more. Embrace every moment and every hug - it’s all so precious. I’ll forever be grateful to my incredible parents for making it all possible, to our family and friends for their endless support, and to Jack - my calm, my home, my heart. I definitely think it’s important to get across how special these weddings are being with your most loved ones, life is so short and we’ve lost to many people recently - just embrace the love in the room!
It wasn’t all without heartache - I’d lost my lovely grandpa Ralph just before the wedding, and Mum had recently lost her childhood friend. Their absence was deeply felt, but we knew they were with us. During the speeches, Dad, Jack and I spoke from the heart and made sure everyone, especially those no longer with us, knew just how much they meant. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room. We were so lucky to have the most incredible team of people around us. Our photographer, Jason Little who I’d
