When we first met Morgan she was excited but extremely nervous for her big day. After hearing her heartwarming story of how she met her future husband we couldn’t resist re-telling. Let’s give you a sneak peak inside their magical garden weddings.

The proposal

It was a warm summer night in Melbourne and Morgan had made plans to go to her friends birthday party. After being a little apprehensive about going she finally convinced herself to go. When she arrived at the bar she sat with her friend for a while and then headed to the bar for a drink. Upon her return she noticed her soon to be fiance, Tom was sitting in her seat. Not wanting to make Tom move she sat in the seat opposite him. Tom couldn’t keep his eyes off Morgan, offering to walk her home at the end of the night. Their instant attraction soon turned into a beautiful romance.   Five years into their relationship, Tom decided it was time to pop the question and proposed to Morgan at the very bar where they first met.  

Garden weddings suited the bride and groom

Morgan and Tom’s wedding was one of those weddings you wish you could experience over and over again. The setting Royal Botanical Gardens in Melbourne, transporting guests to a magical land of luscious green trees and relaxing sounds of singing birds. Morgan always dreamed of having a beautiful garden wedding and the Botanical Gardens was the first place the couple thought of. Remembering the romantic walk home through the gardens after the first night they met.

The wedding dress.
