“The Sunshine Coast is a smaller community and our vendors are all close friends. Our photographer, Jodie introduced us to Vanessa at Uniqueness Jewellery who incorporated our love story into the most beautiful sets of rings.
“A highlight was seeing all the love our friends and family have for us and sharing our happiest day so far with them all. Josh snuck Chanel into the room at Altitude while he finished getting ready and those moments with best friends Sean and Tara and Chanel helped calm any nerves in the lead up.
Alexander Vlasits and Joshua Dickson met through Tinder. “It took a few days for Josh to gain the courage to send the first message but after some ‘liquid courage’ at a house party for one, we didn’t stop messaging. It was an instant connection that has continued to grow to this day.”
Joshua took a day off work to take Alexander to Granite Bay, his favourite beach in Noosa National Park. Alexander knew something was up and knew the proposal was coming as the ring was custom made and already in the house. “It was poorly hidden as he was wearing it on his days off work, even wearing it to dinner with Joshua’s parents one night before the proposal actually happened! However on the day Joshua planned to propose, the Council were doing repairs to the path to Granite Bay and the footpath was closed. After hiking a decent way on a warm day, we stopped to take in the beautiful ocean view when Josh blurted out, ‘Do you want the ring?’ and then threw the ring box at me! We then went back to Hastings Street and met with Joshua’s parents for celebratory cocktails on the beachfront. To this day, noone believes Joshua actually threw the box at me!”
The wedding theme was Native with Nude Tones. Josh’s highlight was standing under the pavilion and seeing Alexander being walked down the stairs by his father.
Alexander loved the quiet time he had in the morning with his wedding party getting ready, sharing beautiful memories and endless laughter. “One of the most special moments I had was walking up to the glasshouse and having my dad see me for the first time. I will never forget as we were walking down the stone stairs to the pavilion, how dad almost pushed me off the stairs as they were so steep. Thankfully we made it down safely and I didn’t go rolling down the hill!”
“Our advice for other couples planning their wedding is to book the vendors you connect with as they will get to know you over the first few meetings and then leave what you can in their hands. We were lucky enough to connect with so many amazing vendors during wedding showcases, many of whom were instant connections. The vendors got to know us and our ideas of what we wanted. The results were an absolute ‘A Team’ of vendors and the most stunning of wedding days.”
“We spent a few nights on the Gold Coast after the wedding and are planning a month holiday exploring Tasmania for our first wedding anniversary and late honeymoon. Our work schedules don’t allign, therefore staying at home and enjoying one another’s company after the wedding was honestly better than a honeymoon!”
