We’re both from the South Island so we love being outdoors and exploring new places, our love for adventure brings us together.
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.
Tell us a little about yourselves, what you do, what you love…
We’re a couple of homebodies mainly. Nat is a nurse and I am in the Army so we fit a certain stereotype on paper that doesn’t necessarily match us as people. The last few years have shown how the status quo can be upended and that feels relatable on some level. We love just spending time together, either running and cycling outdoors or curling up at home with the kids, cats and a movie.

How did we meet? Prepare yourselves for the most romantic pickup line ever… October 2013 we were both flatting in Wellington. I was working on a night shift at the hospital when a message popped up on my Facebook, from Luke who I’d never met.

The first time I laid eyes on Gert, I was in love. I was in a bar, finishing off another cricket season with a few beers and some mates, and the first thing I splurted out to her was “I love you”, with a big grin on my face.

Hannah– I was born in New Zealand and moved to London five years ago, where I now work at a luxury fashion e-commerce platform. Timi– I’m Nigerian, born and raised in London. Growing up, basketball was everything to me and that led to my love of sneakers and a career at Nike. I still play, I have a Youtube channel with a friend called Pure Kicks, and I work at (authentic sneakers platform) GOAT Group.

David works for himself in the cyber security field as well as running a youtube channel. Angelina works in youth services. David and I are quite similar with so many shared interests, he is my best friend, and we know how lucky we are to have found each other in this world and ‘do’ life together.
TJ Iconic! The elopement of Elli and Will is probably more relevant today than when it first appeared on TJ. We have noticed a huge uptake in elopements and smaller weddings, a side effect of a global pandemic. There can be so much beauty in a smaller more intimate gathering. So while you may not be able to have a huge wedding right now (in NZ at least) you could opt for a small affair and plan a big celebration party for further down the track.
