Isn't it funny how life turns out. Holly and Anthony went to high school together, but this isn't a high school sweetheart story. The pair first met in year 11, however only said hello to each other in passing. Never in a million years did either of them think that years later, they would end up madly in love and saying 'I DO'.
Anthony proposed on the 6th of July, the day before Holly's 28th Birthday.
"We had the day planned, working on our new house that was under construction. In the morning, Anth headed to Bunnings, while I enjoyed another 15 minutes in bed. Soon after I received a call from him, saying that he left the shopping list at our new house and asked if I could go and get it. I walked in, and found a HUGE love letter written on a piece of concrete sheeting. Then there was a knock at the front door. I opened it, to find Anth on bended knee. "I love you, will you marry me?" Of course I said "YES" through many happy tears! He then grabbed a bottle of champagne and two glasses that he had hidden to celebrate. We were then treated to two massages, dinner at Montalto and we stayed at a cute B&B. It was the PERFECT night."
Anthony and Holly were married on the 15th of February 2014 in Holly's Mum's beautiful backyard in Balnarring. Her gorgeous, carefully manicured gardens was the perfect backdrop.
The reception was held at Anthony's Mum's house in Mt Martha. A property that holds great memories for the family. A stunning marquee was erected, complete with pop up bar, DJ and dance floor!
Holly's Bridesmaids Chantelle (MOH), Kate and Bec wore Lucy and Loo Convertible Bridesmaid dresses in Charcoal.
"They loved their Lucy and Loo Gowns! As each of my bridesmaids are different height, size and shape and we could tailor the dress into a style that they all looked stunning in and felt comfortable in!"
Holly's gorgeous wedding dress is
Anna Campbell, however her very clever Mum created the tulle bridal train which she wore during the ceremony and for part of the wedding photo's.

| Congratulations Mr and Mrs Harris! |
What was your favorite part of your wedding day?
I don’t think I could pick one favorite part. But I think I could
pick 3!
- Because I can get pretty emotional, we decided to see each other
before the ceremony. Anth came out to greet me when I got out of the car, it
was so surreal.
- The first kiss and being announced as husband and wife! Not only
was it an amazing moment, but it was also such a weight lifted off my
shoulders, I really felt like I could relax, celebrate and enjoy the rest of
the day.
- The last dance of the night! We aren’t very traditional and
don’t enjoy a lot of attention so we didn’t have a first dance or anything like
that. But the last dance of the night was ‘Rain’ and everyone picked us both up
and we all sang and danced. It was so much fun!
