Our Story
How We Met
We met on Tinder, swiping right on each other and instantly feeling a spark. What began as casual conversation quickly turned into something deeper, as we discovered how much we had in common and how easy it was to be ourselves around each other.
Our First Date
Our first date was unforgettable. Nicol came prepared with a game plan of discussion topics, which might sound a bit nerdy, but I absolutely loved it. It made for the most interesting and engaging conversation, and we effortlessly dove into topics ranging from Game of Thrones, our favourite books to our quirks and dreams for the future.
Lockdown
We moved in together during the height of COVID, thinking it would only be for three weeks. Well, five years later, here we are, still going strong. Being locked up 24/7 really gave us the chance to get to know each other in a way we never expected. All the quirks, idiosyncrasies, and habits we each had came to the surface—and let me tell you, we definitely learned a lot about one another! But through it all, we found a rhythm, and it only made us stronger.
The Proposal
Nicol proposed during a hike in the breathtaking Krantzkloof Gorge. We were sweaty and breathless by the time we made it to the top of the hill, but despite the physical exhaustion, it was the most romantic moment. And, of course, I said yes! It was a proposal that truly felt like it was meant to be—just like us.
We Say, "I do"!
We are so incredibly happy and grateful that our closest friends and family are here to bear witness to this special occasion. Having all of you here to celebrate with us means the world, and we couldn’t imagine marking this momentous day without your love and support. Thank you for being part of our journey and for making this day even more unforgettable.
