Our Love Story

Peter and Crystal’s love story began on Hinge in 2020, but it wasn’t exactly love at first text when Crystal ghosted Peter (oops, sorry Peter!). They eventually went out on a date right before the first COVID lockdown hit. What followed were nights of endless phone calls, gaming sessions, and virtual movie nights. Days turned into weeks, weeks into months, and before they knew it, years had flown by. Fast forward to September 2023: amidst the vibrant tulips in Bowral and with their two beloved furbabies by their side, Peter got down on one knee. Crystal said yes, and their next chapter began!

Wedding Party

Get to know the wonderful family and friends who have been with us every step of the way. We’re lucky to have them by our side on such an important day.

Stephanie

Maid of Honor

From biting, kicking and frequent arguments to daily chats sharing everything from life’s big moments to the little details, meet the bride's little sister.

Royce

Best Man

Top-level athlete, elite anime connoisseur and the nephew of the groom who ended up more like a brother. Meet the best man.

Marjory

Bridesmaid

The bride's go-to for emotional support, especially those car chats and cry sessions at Kingsgrove Maccas. But whatever you do, don’t let her near a Popmart!

Sid

Groomsman

Started as high-school friends that pretended to be ninjas on the way to school, this groomsman has been a stable rock for the groom for the entire journey.

Dina

Bridesmaid

From backroom therapy at Gregory Jewellers to always giving the bride her honest thoughts, this bridesmaid never holds back. Sparkle and gossip? She’s got a soft spot for both, just like the bride!

Jervaun

Groomsman

Fiercely competitive in-game but good-natured outside. This groomsman has spent literally thousands of hours fighting the groom... in video games. It's a special bond.

Tiancy

Bridesmaid

From bonding over iZombie in an uni icebreaker, to a friendship full of adventures. Speaking of adventures, her IG is a travel lover’s dream—one scroll, and you’ll catch the travel bug!

Iliya

Groomsman

Formally known as 'Mr Miller' - practically roommates back in the good ol' days of Epping, this gentle soul's preferred mode of transport is a brisk walk... EVERYWHERE.

Ivy

Bridesmaid

From university tutorials to countless adventures, this bridesmaid is a close friend of the bride. If you attend a foodie invite with her, just remember, the shot is everything—so you might be waiting a bit!
