To celebrate 10 years since they first met, Ashlin and Todd legally said “I do” at the registry’s office in Melbourne last August 4th 2021. After a painstaking 8 months of secret-keeping for the small few involved, they held another country wedding on their family farm in Gippsland in front of 121 guests.
The sun never broke through that morning but the cloud was somehow more atmospheric. She asked me to take a photo of her sitting on a bench. When she turned round, I was on one knee.
I realized that each and every day I woke up next to Katie, I loved her more than every previous day.
We happened to be going to the same music event that following weekend, where I took his hand and flirted my head off. He was quite shy, but I think he got the message at the end and we started dating. That was 10 years ago, and we haven’t looked back since.

Then I read ‘will you marry me?’ and looked at Vincent and he was already down on one knee with the ring in his hands. It’s still a blur but I remember being so shocked that I started laughing and left him hanging down there for a good 30 seconds haha!
“Our wedding mantra: more is more! Music, food, cocktails, culture, dancing — all the good things in life.”
