The Proposal
David proposed in a relaxed and intimate way at home. It was just after dinner, and as we headed upstairs to watch a movie, he couldn’t sit still, pacing back and forth nervously. When I asked what was wrong, he dropped to one knee. At first, I laughed, thinking he was joking as he had before, but when he pulled out the ring, I was completely shocked. My first words weren’t “yes,” but “are you going to put it on?” and then I said yes.
Why We Chose Our Venue
We chose Meelup Farmhouse because it felt both elegant and laid-back. It had everything we wanted, with beautiful natural surroundings, stylish furniture and décor, a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces, and even animals.
Best Moments
The highlight was seeing our family and friends so happy and enjoying themselves. Our suppliers were incredible and very patient with the bridal party. One of the most meaningful touches was sharing a traditional Croatian rum shot after the ceremony to remember those who couldn’t be with us.
Advice for Future Couples
Communication is key. Try to stay calm and don’t overthink. Avoid changing your mind too often as trends will always change. I found it helpful to keep an Excel spreadsheet with tasks and costs so everything stayed organised.
