Mr. & Mrs.
Married 19th September 2020
Croston
Let’s just say we grew on each other and his
infectious humour, charming demeanour and
happy go lucky attitude was zapped out of
him when he moved in with me and my three
children. In all seriousness, as the saying
goes ‘when you know, you know’, we just did.
We got engaged after three months, Pete
proposing with a ‘little mermaid’ ring on his
return from Florida (yes, he went without us!)
and our wedding was planned soon after.
"Nothing was too much trouble
as we planned our day and
fitted everything we wanted
into a reasonable budget."
P
ete and I met at work, now he would have
you think it was love at first sight, and it
might have been for him, giving me the glad
eye as I rushed out of the office on my way
home one evening throwing a scowl his way.
Windy Harbour seemed a natural choice for
our wedding venue, being local to us, nestled in
the hills with stunning views of the surrounding
area, a relaxed family atmosphere and friendly
staff, they have it all. So, 'pre-covid' we took
ourselves to meet Lee and Sarah, who were
already familiar to us as they had hosted family
events before. Nothing was too much trouble
as we planned our day and fit everything
we wanted into a reasonable budget.
We knew we wanted a relaxed wedding and
as far as themes go, we didn’t really have
one. Pete left things up to me and along with
my bridesmaids Kate, Danielle and Sarah, we
worked hard to source items with a natural,
country vibe, for my theme that wasn’t a theme!
