Real Wedding: Nicole & Jordan – Photography by Danelle Bohane

We first met before we even knew how to walk. Our parents met each other in a hill station in India called Mussoorie, when we were both just short of one year old. We then met again when we were in third grade, we went to a small school in New Delhi. I was Jordy's first crush, but back then I was terrified of little boys, especially him. We were in school together for three years, then home-schooled separately, and I moved to Thailand for high school. We had no contact with each other during that time at all, then in 2011 I went with my family on a rafting trip in India and Jordy and his dad were on the same trip. The first day I just observed him making everyone laugh and being friends with everyone. We were all sitting in a big group and he stopped and looked and me and said, “Do you ever talk?” I started laughing and then wouldn’t shut up the rest of the trip, and that was the beginning of us.

Real Wedding: Bridget & Ryan – Photography by Jonny from A Narrative of Love

We first met in fifth form at Wentworth College - Ryan was being introduced to our English class and someone needed to take him to science, so being super kind I volunteered. We quickly became friends and then he asked me out at a party one night - and I said no! Then spent the following three weeks was wishing he would ask me again... Luckily our school ball came around and he asked me - that was nine years ago. Ryan would say I chased him.

Real Wedding: Laura & Ed – Photography by Bryony Tyler-Whiteman & Rambo Estrada

We met in 2013 when I photographed Ed at the restaurant where he was sous chef, while documenting a special event dinner. A few weeks later our paths crossed again at a barbecue and the sparks flew as we washed dishes. We were pretty much inseparable after that and have now designed our lives so hospitality hours won't keep us apart. This winter we’re opening a restaurant together, so our marriage is as partners in life, love, friendship and business.

Real Wedding: Mimi & Stephen – Photography by Libby Robinson

My passion is food and Stephen’s is music, which makes for a good party! Our families are an incredibly important aspect of our lives and we love spending time with them - my family loves to wine and dine and Stephen’s are extremely active, so there have been some adjustments for all of us!

Stephen and I met in a bar after a Will.i.am concert. I was trying to chat up Will.i.am (though in hindsight it was more like pester). When that was unsuccessful, I moved on to Stephen!
