\nNovember 29th, 2008.<\/p>\n
\nI was out for dinner with a friend one night when a handsome man caught my eye across the restaurant. Throughout the night we continued to glance over at each other, when it came time for me to leave I gave him one last smile and Heath then chased me down the street to introduce himself and we exchanged phone numbers. The rest is history.<\/p>\n
\nHeath proposed to me in Thailand. He organised a day for the two of us at a beautiful day spa. We later went up to the hotel room to get ready for dinner and when I walked inside the balcony had been decorated with hundreds of flowers, plam trees, fairy lights and pink silk. There was a table for two set up with a seafood dinner and bottle of French champagne. Once we finished the incredible dinner, Heath got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. It was so beautiful it’s hard to put into words.<\/p>\n
\nWe were married on the grounds of Willow Creek vineyard in Victoria in the rose garden with our close family and friends. The reception was held at Salix restaurant, where we enjoyed a three- course French inspired dinner with an amazing acoustic singer. We danced the night away. It was the most amazing and memorable day of my life, and I was so fortunate to enjoy it with my wonderful family and friends.<\/p>\n
\nI always dreamed of a traditional style wedding dress and I was lucky enough to find one. As soon as I saw it I knew it was the one. My wedding dress is a vintage style with a beaded bodice with vintage broach and train at the back. I also had a traditional veil to finish off the perfect look.<\/p>\n
\nWe had the most amazing honeymoon in Thailand, Penang; where we stayed at the Shangri-la. It was perfect in every way; we relaxed, spent time by the pool, enjoyed each other\u2019s time and made sure we spent a lot of time at the day spa. I can’t wait to go back there again soon.<\/p>\n
\nThe best piece of advice I can offer is to just enjoy your wedding day, don’t stress the small stuff because it doesn’t matter…<\/p>\n
