Congratulations MAJA & BORIS

“The whole evening was just amazing... filled with non-stop dancing and fun (the guests barely stopped to eat). The weekend we were married was one of the only ones without Covid restrictions and lockdowns for a few months.

Maja Bajkanovic and Boris Vilic met at a nighclub ‘teenager night’ when they were teenagers. “We lost contact for about 15 years. We randomly ran into each other one night while walking at Kangaroo Point. A year later, we were engaged. We bought our first house together and the night we got the keys, we went to see our home. As I opened the door, there were hundreds of candles and rose petals everywhere going up the staircase and soft music playing. I almost fainted! Boris helped me walk up the stairs, where there was the most beautiful set up - two chairs and a table dressed in white, a bottle of Veuve, hundrends of candles, loads of red roses and rose petals and pictures of the two of us all around the room. That’s where Boris got on one knee and asked me to marry him. Shortly after, our family arrived to celebrate with us (all pre-arranged by him beforehand).”

“The wedding theme was Elegant and Timeless. In the morning, we had a big party at my parents’ house while we were getting ready. There was live music and loads of people dancing downstairs, while the bridemaids and I were getting ready upstairs. It was lots of fun. After the crazy morning, an emotional ceremony and the wild limo rides with music blasting, we arrived at our photo location in Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens. It was such a beautiful peaceful moment and was the first chance we had to stop and take it all in.”

“Our advice for other couples planning their wedding is just go with the flow and even if things don’t work out - that’s ok. Sometimes the aspects that don’t work end up turning out even better and are blessings in disguise. Also, everyone says this, but on the day just be in the moment and take it all in. The day really does fly by so quickly. For months after the wedding I was saying I wished I could go back to relive it all.”

“We still haven’t had our honeymoon as we were married during Covid border restrictions. We really wanted to do a big Europe trip so will likely book that in in the coming months now the borders are open again.”

“A photographer we had booked cancelled on us and I thought it was the end of the world! But then we found a photographer that was so much better and much more ‘us’. The photography ended up being one of the aspects we loved the most from the wedding. Things have a strange way of working out!
