Our Story

Picture of Our Story

We met through mutual friends who were convinced we should be together — though the timing wasn’t quite right back then. A few years later, a catch-up over a McDonald’s coffee turned into hours of talking, and that’s where everything began to fall into place.

On April 23rd, 2015, we made it official, and life has been full speed ahead ever since. Dean stepped straight into the dad role with Kyralie and Savannah, never once asking for a babysitter, and soon our family grew with Ameliah, Phoenix, and Fletcher.

Since then, we’ve shared family holidays, moved into a few new homes, and built a life full of laughter, love, and beautiful chaos. We’ve supported each other through everything — celebrating career milestones, navigating late nights and early mornings, and creating something truly special together.

Now, after all these years, countless memories, and our little crew complete, it’s finally time to make it official as husband and wife — and celebrate with all the amazing people who have been part of our journey.

Q + A

When and Where is the wedding?

The ceremony starts at 3:30 PM, so please be seated by 3:00 PM. We’ll be saying “I do” in the gardens of Longshed Gardens in Kinglake West, followed by a 'cocktail hour' and then our reception in the barn. Ceremony & Reception will be held at the same location.

What should we wear?

👗 For the ladies: Flowy dresses, jumpsuits, or skirts in light fabrics. Wedges, block heels, or cute flats are perfect (leave the stilettos at home—trust us, the grass won’t be kind). 👔 For the gents: Button-ups, polo shirts, or lightweight dress shirts with chinos or dress pants. Ties and jackets are totally optional—laid-back but polished is the goal

Are kids invited?

We love all of your children, but for this celebration it will be close family only. Please check your invitation to see if your little ones are invited.

Can we bring a plus-one?

We’re keeping the day intimate, so plus-ones are by invitation only. Please check your invitation for details.

Will there be food and drinks?

Yes! We will have a buffet dinner and a selection of drinks in the bar!

Will there be dancing?

Absolutely-bring your best moves because ours definitely need some help. Our DJ will keep the floor moving all night!

Can we take photos?

We’d love for you to enjoy the day and take snaps! But we’ll also have a professional photographer capturing the moments, so no stress about missing anything.

What about gifts?

Your presence is the best gift! We’re lucky to have everything we need! If you’d like to give a gift, please leave a card and your wishes in our wishing well at the reception — we can’t wait to read them.

Where should we park?

Plenty of parking is available at the venue.

How do we get home safely after the party?

We want everyone to have a great time and get home safely! Since there won’t be Ubers nearby, we recommend planning ahead — carpooling, arranging a designated driver, or booking accommodation close to the venue.

If there is any other questions please feel free to reach out to us directly.
