Which gown did you wear?<\/strong>
\nCameron<\/a> gown by Maggie Sottero<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Princess<\/td>\n\"Princess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

How did you know when you found \u201cthe dress\u201d?<\/strong>
\nThe first time I tried on any dress was at Abbey Bridal in Sydney. I tried on numerous Maggie dresses (including \u201cthe dress\u201d). I instantly fell in love. I was, however, blown away by how much I loved this dress as it was only the second or third dress I tried on! I convinced myself that I couldn\u2019t possibly have found it yet so I searched for a few weeks in different shops. But I couldn\u2019t stop thinking about it. I knew it was the one!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Princess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

What was your favorite part of the dress? <\/strong>
\nThe unique embroidered lace on the bodice of the dress. I still to this day haven\u2019t seen a dress even remotely similar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Princess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

How did you and your partner meet? <\/strong>
\nWe went to school together. He was the year below me but we were always great friends. We didn\u2019t actually get together until we were both out of school for a few years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Princess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

How did he propose? <\/strong>
\nHe proposed the day after our 5-year anniversary at a new restaurant in town where we were living at the time. Just us two on a fairy-light-lit balcony\u2014it was my version of perfect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Princess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Where did you get married? <\/strong>
\nWe got married locally at Burnham Grove Estate in Cawdor. Both ceremony and reception were here. I stayed the night before with my bridesmaids and Karl and I stayed the night of. It was beautiful, relaxed, and perfect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Princess\"Princess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Did your wedding have a theme? <\/strong>
\nWe always described our theme as \u201csoft and romantic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Princess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

How did you decide what you wanted your wedding to look like?<\/strong>
\nWe already knew what sort of setting and details we liked and it wasn\u2019t really like any wedding we had been to in recent years. We aimed for lots of flowers, pastel pinks, golds and whites for an elegant, romantic, and classy atmosphere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Princess\"Princess<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

What was your favorite wedding day moment? <\/strong>
\nI really can\u2019t pick a favorite as the whole thing was exactly how we envisioned it, but one very memorable moment that sticks with me was a butterfly that hung around for the whole ceremony and sat on my flowers while I signed my certificate. I like to think a loved one was near. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
