Eleven years, one wonderful question
Eleven years ago, Adrian and Jo met in Sydney through a mutual friend at an event. What started as a conversation quickly turned into something more. They kept connecting, discovered just how much they had in common, and before long Adrian asked Jo to officially be his girlfriend.
Fast forward to June 2025, and Adrian had been quietly planning something big. He told Jo they were off on a weekend getaway to Hepburn, but that was just the cover story. Jo didn’t find out she was actually flying to New Zealand until close to the flight itself.
What followed was a full week away, planned down to the last detail, with a new surprise waiting each day. On their final day, at a breathtaking spot beside Lake Tekapo, Adrian got down on one knee and asked Jo to marry him.
She said yes, and now they can’t wait to celebrate with the people who mean the most to them.
Friday, 13 November
Our ceremony will be an intimate, family-only moment. We’d love for you to join us right after for canapés, cocktails and celebrations from 6:00pm.
