We have always envisioned our wedding to be a mix of the two cultures we have been brought up in, both Kiwi and Sri Lankan. Although a traditional kiwi-styled ceremony, we incorporated cultural touches such as our bridesmaids wearing sarees and having a traditional Sri Lankan oil lamp ceremony and Sri Lankan dancers at the reception!

Kyle got two black eyes at his stag do the weekend before the wedding. There wasn’t enough time for them to heal fully so he had to wear some heavy-duty concealer on the day!

I was Greg’s first and last internet date, man was he lucky HA!! He scared me a bit, he almost killed me in the first 5 mins.. that’s a good story to tell the kids.

The skies opened and started pouring rain a few minutes before the start of our ceremony which could be seen from inside in the ceremony space. This dramatic weather combined with the sounds of our string quartet created a setting that really matched our heightened emotions as we prepared to be officially married.

Oli successfully wooed Emily with his excellent cooking and she realised that if she played her cards right she would never have to cook again.
