Tim– I play professional cricket, hence the winter wedding. I’m a keen golfer, love time spent with our family and friends, enjoy a good flat white and people watching. Morgan– I work in cricket — I’m the marketing and communications manager for one of the teams Tim plays for, which is hilarious because before we met I knew nothing about cricket.
Anni– I work at a charity running an education program and occasionally do floristry jobs on the side.
I grew up in Finland where my mother is from, but I’ve spent a lot of time in Australia because my dad’s from Sydney. I have a passion for learning new things, boxing, exploring nature, and diving.

Radek owns a Gym, TOMFIT, on the North Shore and I am the Head of Marketing Communications at Samsung NZ. We both love keeping healthy, working out, skiing, and we definitely overindulge in wine. Travelling is a big part of our lives, Radek is from Prague and pre COVID would go back every year to see his family. We’re both super excited we’re able to travel outside of NZ again.
We are bringing back an edit of our top-performing real weddings from the TJ archives. These are our very best weddings that our audience has loved the most, and the ones we think are still very relevant and aspirational…
We are both artists pursuing creative careers. I’m a designer and he’s a musician. Our life is in a constant state of evolution and experimentation and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

CLW: Pre-COVID it was travel. We booked flights Europe together only about 12 weeks after we started dating. We also love getting away for a weekend when we can, and taking advantage of work trips to turn them into a holiday as well.
Dilip and I are both doctors, he in respiratory, and I in general surgery. I was born in China and grew up in Auckland. Dilip is Malaysian Indian, and came here for medical school. We can both be workaholics, so it’s important to encourage each other’s hobbies. I love the outdoors and Dilip loves board games.
Our first meeting was quite formal – we shook hands in the offices of Wolter Consulting Group in 2014. Kim was new and being introduced to the wider team. Our first few interactions were probably rather uneventful, but nice nonetheless. I think the work Christmas party rolled around about 1 month later and turns out that after a couple of gin & tonics, Kim’s pretty funny.Â
Anthony- I’m a chiropractor and personal trainer who runs clinics in Melbourne. I enjoy playing sports and keeping fit. Daniela– I’ve loved to draw since childhood and now have my own business as a fashion illustrator. I love all things creative and fashion.

GM: I’m a Fashion Buyer & Hamish works in construction management. We live in Auckland, and both enjoy getting outdoors for walks / hikes, relaxing at the beach, travelling and eating out with friends and family.
I wanted our wedding to have the formality of a special occasion, but with the relaxed feel of a family gathering. I’m obsessed with simple classic style where nothing unnecessary is added.
Naomi– We’re both from the UK and met working in a restaurant in my home town of York.
We were both quite shy, so we each thought we weren’t liked by the other! It wasn’t until a few months later that a few beers at a leaving party gave us the courage to finally talk.

We started dating in our first year in college. Our decade-long courtship solidified our commitment to each other. Over those years, we nurtured one another, shaping each other into the people we are today.
