Tell me about your "The Beginning". How did you meet? Where did you meet? What did you do for your First Date? I'd love to know your story!
We met through mutual friends - our friend, Nikki, introduced us over dumplings at XuXu Dumpling Bar in Britomart. We met up a few times as friends (and with friends) before our first date, but on our official first date we went rock climbing and to Mr Zhou’s Dumplings afterwards (there's a theme here...!)
When and where did you get engaged? 
We got engaged on the 6th December 2019 on top of the smaller of the two pyramids in Okia Reserve after a walk on Victory Beach, Dunedin :)
What style/theme have you chosen for your Wedding Day? Share the details!
Not a style/theme as such, but the aim is something relaxed and rustic...with wildflowers for our florals
What are you most looking forward to on the day?
We're looking forward to an intimate ceremony at the beach, seeing each other for the first time on the day, hearing Vance Joy play once we've said "I do", the post-ceremony cocktails and relaxing in the hot tub with some champagne at our accommodation at the end of the day!
Top Tips! If you could share a few top tips for other couples planning their Wedding Day, what would those tips be?
Don't get married in the middle of a global pandemic!!! Figure out what you want from the day and plan your wedding around those things (don't feel like you have to conform to traditions/norms if you're not into them!)
