Our Celebration

We are so happy to invite you to our wedding in the beautiful region of
Imperia, Italy.
We've created our wedding website to help you connect to other important people in our lives and keep you posted with all the information you need for our big day(s).
We can't wait to share these special moments with you in the heart of Rocchetta Nervina.
What to Expect
Our wedding celebrations will take place over three days from 3 - 5 July 2024. The big day is 4 July but you won't want to miss the welcome dinner or the next day.
You can RSVP to each day and let us know if you have any special requests.
Please RSVP by 1 December 2023
Our Love Story
Our 14 year* love story started as any normal Kiwi romance in the early 2010's - a late night soiree in a Nightclub in Wellington, NZ, through mutual friends. David Guetta or Rihanna pumping (can't remember). There were no romantic dates and not a lot of interest at first.
BUT we found our spark and we've been an inseparable team ever since.
Our story (equal measures of comedy, drama, and mystery/thriller) has taken us on many adventures, twists and turns from NZ, across South East Asia and into Europe. Each of you have played such an important part of this and helped make the team we are today.
We can't wait to celebrate the start of our next chapter with you!
*give or take (we can't remember)
We want our wedding playlist to be as unique as our wedding party and want everyone on the dance floor at ALL times.
Our Playlist
Please add your favourite song or songs to our Spotify list - no judgement.
Remember we've been together for over a decade - when Ed Hardy T-shirts were a thing, Justin Timberlake was cool, and Ministry of Sound smashed the club hits........plus Mike's recently played list looks like a Cold Chisel, Ladies of Soul, Phil Collins, L.A.B love child.

Our Memories
What to Wear
Welcome Dinner: Whatever makes you feel fabulous - you will need to walk up the road to dinner, so keep this in mind
The Ceremony / Reception: Cocktail / Semi-Formal - flat shoes! Or at least for walking through the village; if you're confident, wedges or block heels are ok. Sparkles, sequins, glamour encouraged for later
Afterparty: Whatever you want - no dress code - anything goes. Bring togs/swimmers.
