Claire + Anton by Jonny Scott
I have always wanted to wear a classical, timeless wedding dress. When I first put on my dress at Hera Couture, I knew it was the one. It felt like something I would love for the rest of my life.

I knew he was the one when he took me out dancing – there’s no arguing with those hips of his, he’s got the moves and I couldn’t keep away after that!
At midnight as our guests were leaving, we had had a grand total of 102mm of rain, simply unheard of in a single day in November! But one thing was for certain, no one let the rain dampen their spirits and we all had a great night on the dance floor in our gumboots.

Absolutely nothing went wrong on the day except that the wind REALLY decided to come out and play. At our ceremony, I kept having to pull my hands away from Chris’ so I could hold down my skirt.
We were both back in New Zealand the following April, and it was around then I started to make plans to propose; first consulting my Mum on the size of the diamond I had picked out, to which I was promptly told it wasn’t quite big enough!
One moment that we are still laughing about was the conga line that formed to Tipsy by J-Kwon. Seeing family and friends of all ages doing the conga to a hip hop song was an absolute highlight.
