Tell me about your The Beginning!

We met as young teens on the streets of St Leonards through a mutual friend, we became friends for years but always had a little twinkling eye for each other. When we were both single Nicole plucked up the courage with some drinks down the hatch to ask for a kiss on the Eureka Dance floor and the rest is history.

When and where did you get engaged?

On the weekend we were set to pick up our fur-baby puppy dog Forrest, Sam organised a night away for us in San Remo (very sus as in our 7 year relationship he’d never organised a single night away). He proposed at sunset in front of an open fire and Nicole’s favourites cheese platter and prosecco. He stuffed up his wording but it was still the most special and memorable night.

What style/theme have you chosen for your Wedding Day?

Is relaxed and go with the flow a style? Being sleep deprived new parents we tried not to let the wedding stress us out too much. I guess our style-inspo is a mix of rustic/modern/boho. Thank goodness for insta stalking!

What are you most looking forward to on the day?

Seeing each other in our first look and also seeing all our friends and family smiling and laughing together as we celebrate our love with them all. Also can’t wait for a nice cold drink and a boogie on the dance floor!

Top Tips!

Start early! The longer you have for planning the less stressful it will feel closer to the day. Try and keep as relaxed as possible, its your day to celebrate your love after all!
