Natalie: David loves to say we met the “old fashioned” way: on Tinder. True story, although it was only due to some heavy-hitting mutual friends who insisted that we actually decided to meet.
For me I knew pretty instantly he was someone I wanted to know in my life. I think he’s SO gorgeous, but my first thought was I’d love to be his friend. After his first trip to Sydney, I knew he was someone special, but honestly, there hasn’t been just one moment, it’s all the moments combined.
Sophie: I’m from Hawke’s Bay and Will is from Mount Maunganui. Will owns a design business with his friend, called George & Willy, and I run an art gallery, Parlour Projects. Much of our time together is spent reading, dreaming and talking about art and design.
This week we have another two cocktails brought to you by Seedlip and Garden Shoots, the Spring Kombucha Highball and Sage Gimlet. As the art of gardening continues its pandemic-induced renaissance, Seedlip has partnered with local guided gardening brand Green Shoots to offer green-fingered Kiwis a new growing project for spring.

Our mutual attraction is built on us both being highly ambitious people who want more than the average 9-5. It’s not about climbing the corporate ladder, but doing something every single day that you’re passionate about.
