| Their Perfect romance - a real life bride |
| We have been together since high school. We |
| were best friends and it became a little more |
| when Phil helped me mend from a broken |
heart.
|
| Phil proposed in such a romantic way. It was |
| Christmas morning and I had been looking all |
| week for my presents that should have been |
| under the tree, but they just weren’t there. |
| so, I gave him my presents and he looked at |
| me and pulled out a crumpled piece of paper |
| and read a poem to me that he had written. |
| Then he pulled out a ring from behind his |
| back and proposed. I had no idea. The ring |
| was perfect and it was the best Christmas |
| ever! |
| Their Ideal Wedding: |
| We decided to keep our wedding fairly |
| traditional but in an outdoor setting. A |
| beautiful spring day at the Tamborine Gardens |
| Wedding Chapel. It was such a perfect day. |
| I am sure every bride would say it but our |
| wedding ceremony was perfectly romantic. |

A | | beautiful spring day at the Tamborine Gardens | | Wedding Chapel. It was such a perfect day. | | I am sure every bride would say it but our | | wedding ceremony was perfectly romantic. | | My cousin took part with a | special reading and
| Phil and I incorporated his proposal poem into | | our wedding vows. | | Phil was the perfect groom, he only had two | | requests, that if he had to wear a suit, then | | to pick a date at a cooler time of year so he | | wouldn’t swelter and that I change my name | | to his. Not too much to ask at all. | | Other than that, it was up to me. I picked | | september because the weather would be | | milder and having an outdoor ceremony, it | | would mean flowers and sunshine, which | | seemed appropriate for the start of our new | | life together. | | We had our reception on the grounds and | | then spent our wedding night in one of the | | attached cottages. As quite a lot of the | | guests stayed on the mountain, we met up | | with them the next morning for a breakfast | | before heading off. | | Their unique Choices: | | We took advantage of family connections | | and friends, which meant my veil was a | | labour of love by Phil’s mother, a local | | flower farm supplied the freshest flowers. | | Our photographer was Jan ramsey from | Eye on Photography and we know we made
| the perfect choice. We love our wedding | | memories that were created by her. It is | | amazing what an important role the wedding | | photographer plays. she was the one who | | knew what I should do and how to make me | | relax and get some great smiles from the | | whole wedding party. | | We had our honeymoon in Phuket in Thailand. | | Phil is a champion Muay Thai kickboxer and | | lived in Thailand for a while. so for Phil it was an | | opportunity to take me to all his favourite places | | and create new memories with me in them. |
|
| Their Bridal Insights: | | remember that you have bridesmaids and | | that their role is to support you. Ask them to | | share the load and take some of the stress | | from your shoulders. | | Also, your wedding day is THE day so enjoy | | every moment. don’t rush a thing. Walk down | | the aisle and look at everyone. Catch their | | eyes, smile and soak up the atmosphere. | | One last thing, even though Phil didn’t have | | a lot of requests or input, I never forgot that | | this was also HIs wedding day. We enjoyed | | the whole experience together. | | • Thank you for your story -Ideal Bride |
