How They Met
The Proposal
James and Stephanie’s love for the finer things in life is evident in their penchant for exceptional experiences. James masterfully orchestrated a romantic proposal at Pier One, their go-to hotel, where he had already set the stage for a memorable staycation. With a hint of excitement from Stephanie’s mother that something special was brewing, she got ready to impress with a new outfit and pampering treatment. Little did she know that James had planned an unforgettable evening.
As they stepped onto the balcony, they were met with a breathtaking proposal setup, complete with a heartfelt ‘MARRY ME’ sign, a bouquet of roses, and chilled champagne. The surprise didn’t stop there – their families joined in on the celebration, followed by a private dinner at Rockpool, their favorite restaurant. The weekend was filled with joy, love, and togetherness, surrounded by their closest loved ones.
The Wedding
Stephanie and James had been planning their special day for almost two years when they finally found the perfect venue – Crown Sydney in the heart of the city.
