Shauna and Matthew have known each other since high school, but didn’t really connect until a few years after graduation. When they did, everything just clicked.
Weekends are all about doing what they love. Shauna enjoys a good shopping trip or curling up with a book, while Matthew’s usually deep into a gaming session. Together, they balance each other perfectly, and their idea of a perfect date night says it all: a romantic dinner followed by something fun like mini golf, Timezone, or an escape room. It’s that mix of sweet and playful that makes them such a great match.
When it came to the proposal, Matthew pulled off something pretty unforgettable, asking Shauna to marry him at Yomiuri Land in Tokyo, Japan. A magical moment in one of the most exciting places in the world!
Their elopement at Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens was every bit as special. The garden was serene, the perfect setting for such an intimate celebration. With Natasha Hill as their celebrant, the ceremony was heartfelt and easygoing, just two people, completely present with each other, promising forever, surrounded by nature.
Shauna and Matthew’s day was simple, genuine, and full of love, the perfect reminder that the best moments often come from the quiet, honest kind of connection that grows over time.
