Β Every love story has its beginning, and for Courtenay and Brendan, theirs started in the most unexpected of places: a job interview back in 2017. Little did Courtenay know that the man who would one day propose to her was initially her boss. After years of professional collaboration, their relationship blossomed into a romance that would change their lives forever.

Β Brendan’s proposal to Courtenay was a testament to their shared dreams and resilience. After completing the construction of their dream home, Brendan had planned a romantic proposal but was spurred into action by a health scare one evening. Unable to contain his love any longer, he proposed at home, marking the beginning of their journey towards marriage.

For Courtenay and Brendan, marriage symbolises a deep commitment and unwavering dedication to each other's happiness and well-being. Their wedding day at Victoria Park Golf Club was a celebration of this commitment, surrounded by their cherished family and friends. The atmosphere was filled with palpable love, making it a day they will forever hold dear.Β

As a plus-size bride with a vision for a sparkly gown, Courtenay faced initial challenges in finding the right dress. However, fate intervened when β€˜When Freddie Met Lilly’ appeared on her Instagram feed. A consultation later, and Courtenay found herself in the perfect gown that not only fit beautifully but also shimmered with her personality. With her mum, sister and best friend by her side, the gown became a stunning reflection of her style and spirit.Β

Courtenay and Brendan ensured their wedding day was a true reflection of their personalities and shared dreams. They opted for a first look, a decision they cherish for allowing them to share private, emotional moments before joining their guests. This choice set the tone for a day filled with laughter, champagne toasts, and the joy of being surrounded by loved ones.Β

Courtenay’s journey taught her invaluable lessons about wedding planning. She advises future brides to focus on what truly matters: their love and the commitment they are making. She emphasises staying true to oneself amidst the pressures of planning and encourages brides to take time off before the wedding week to manage stress effectively. Her experience underscores the importance of enjoying the process and making decisions that align with personal values rather than outside influences.

As Courtenay and Brendan embark on this new chapter of their lives, they do so with hearts full of gratitude for the love that brought them together and excitement for the adventures that lie ahead. Their wedding day was more than just a celebration; it was a testament to their love story and a promise of a future filled with happiness and togetherness.

To all couples preparing for their own journey down the aisle, Courtenay and Brendan offer their warmest wishes and remind them that the most beautiful weddings are those that reflect the unique bond shared between two people in love.Β
