Anthea + George
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
One of our lovely couple Anthea and George just celebrated their engagement with a love-filled party at Sirromet Winery. With Valentines Day just around the corner, we asked Anthea to share their love story and some advice…
Q: How did you meet?
Long story short, we first met at a wedding when we were young, then ran into each other at a club, and then found out we were in the same classes at Uni. Third time lucky worked in our favour.
Q: When did you know he was the one for you? What makes him so special?
People ask me that all the time but to be honest from the beginning I knew he was the one. We connect, appreciate, respect and love each other. When you have those things you just know.
Q: Do you celebrate Valentines Day? If yes, what do you do?
We always celebrate Valentines Day. Every year so far we book a nice dinner somewhere. We like to try a different restaurant every time we go out. If I’m lucky enough I’ll get some flowers too!
Q: Can you share some tips about planning your engagement and wedding for other brides-to-be?
Be organised and go with the vision you have in your head. When planning my engagement I had a folder of pictures I saved from Pinterest, Tumblr, Blogs etc. Once you start putting themes and colours together, everything works out perfect.
Q: Best advice you’ve ever received about love?
Always respect each other. Respect to me is a huge thing in a relationship. Don’t let the little things get you fighting, focus on what’s important and stay happy.
Q: Most important characteristics in a partner?
Someone that’s not only good looking on the outside but also the inside. George and I are always smiling and laughing together.
Q: Can you tell us about a romantic moment you have shared with George?
The most romantic moment was when he proposed to me, he surprised me the night before with a ‘getaway holiday’ he had organised at Green Island and little did I know during this ‘getaway’, he was planning to propose to me. On the night he had a beautiful dinner set up on the beach whilst the sun was going down. Everything was perfect.
