The very first time Tess laid eyes on Brad, was on his online profile picture. A good old selfie… with a toilet in the background. Luckily for Brad though, first impressions aren’t everything – and miraculously, a conversation dawned. After a few weeks of late night phone calls, Tess was able to see past his mediocre selfie skills. They call themselves an RSVP internet dating success story, and the minute they met, they just knew. They were each other’s person.
These two are about as traditional as their love story. Forget everything you think you know about weddings – this, was a party. On their very own (and freshly purchased!) property, surrounded by friends, family, wedding jumpsuits, pizza trucks and sausage dogs, they laughed and cried and danced throughout the night. To them, it was a celebration of their achievements together, and an excuse to have some proper fun.
This wedding blew our socks off. Unforgettable! Tess and Brad – you’re fireworks. We’re so thrilled to have been part of this day, and we’re not just saying that because you served us pizza. (Just kidding, of course we are)
