Our Love Story
Hey everyone, it’s Bruno and Aimee here! We’re so excited to share the story of how we met and fell in love, especially since many of you played a part in our journey. It all started one Sunday at church. Believe it or not, we might have Aimee's mum and Bruno's sister-in-law to thank for this – or maybe it was just meant to be, a little nudge from above. Honestly, we’re still trying to piece that part together! After that day, things just clicked. Bruno ended up looking after Bear, Aimee’s adorable little Dachshund, while her family was away. We believe Bear approved of Bruno before Aimee did, as he's usually not a fan of men! When Aimee got back, I pretended I just wanted to catch up with Bear, but really, I wanted to spend time with her. We went for a long walk, had breakfast, and the rest is history. I was so smitten that I asked her out properly, and she said yes! Fast forward nearly a year, filled with countless memories and growing love, and there I was, on one knee, asking Aimee to marry me in the middle of her favourite winery in the Hunter Valley on Australia Day. And she said yes – again! We’re beyond excited to tie the knot on the 2nd of August and start this new chapter together. We can’t wait to celebrate our special day with all of you. See you soon!

We have put together a list of questions and answers to save you time.
