Who would have thought a high-five in the face would be such a lucky charm?
Cara and Nathan, with their photographer Dijana Risteska, have taken out the tenth spot in our 2015 Wedding of the Year competition. Congratulations! They will receive a $1000 voucher from Michael Hill and a shot at an enviable second honeymoon with InterContinental Fiji and Fiji Airways.
The Melbourne bride, with hubby Nathan, was on the other end of a bridesmaid’s exuberant high-five resulting in a gash to her forehead just a week before the big day! “I didn’t kick her out,” she laughs.
Their all-in-one ceremony and reception at the The Brighton International included some modern and fun vows and one promise we’d never heard before: “Nathan promised to ‘like’ my selfies in a reasonable time-frame!” says Cara.
This, coupled with elegant formal styling; glimmers of gold, a sea of bow ties, and a drop-dead gorgeous wedding gown – all captured in beautiful photographs – has crowned this legal assistant and plumber our October winners. A special mention to our other eight nominees and you can see Cara and Nathan’s full post here.
