Amy & Patrick

How did you meet?

We met at the beginning of 2010, at the start of our pharmacy degree. One day he sat next to me in class, asked to borrow a pen, and we’ve been inseparable ever since!

When did you know they were the one?

I can’t pinpoint one exact moment, but I think I realised when I didn’t want to spend any time apart from him. The moment we met I felt like I had known him forever, and he was instantly my best friend. I don’t know if there’s such a thing as ‘love at first sight’ but I think this would be pretty close.

What are your three favourite attributes of your partner?

I love his sense of humour, his kindness, and his intelligence

Where did you fall in love with your dress and why?

I first saw Willow when I was in the “explore” section of Instagram. She was on a girl in a paddock with cows in the background. It reminded me of home and my Nonno’s old farm. I saw the split in the leg and thought, “Well, she has a modern, hidden surprise about her too, and I like that!” I then met her in Bluebell Bridal in Melbourne. She was the first one I tried on in the store, and nothing compared after that first encounter! She made me feel beautiful all day, she floated around me, she held me and she made me a bride. The Chani Veil complimented her too! Thank you, Made With Love, I will treasure her forever!

Who proposed and how?

Patrick proposed to me one day in the park. Patrick can’t keep a secret so I knew it was coming, but it was perfect because it reflected who we are as a couple; simple and no fuss, just the two of us spending the day together.

Where did you fall in love with your dress and why?

I instantly fell in love with my dress at Bluebell Bridal in Melbourne. I love it because it’s simple, elegant and romantic, and all those layers of soft tulle really made me feel like a princess! My dress had the Stevie bodice which just added that extra bit of luxury. The low back and front split also gave it a modern twist. It was an absolute dream to wear.

Where did you go on your honeymoon?

We actually haven’t gone yet, but we will be going on a delayed honeymoon this year in June to Hawaii! We are so excited.
