Tell me about yourselves … How did you meet? What do you do?..How do you spend your days?..What’s important in life?

We met on New Years Eve 8 years ago. Kate is in advertising and Rich is a geologist. We are a pretty chilled out couple but very different in alot of ways. Kate is very organised and is a doer, Rich is more relaxed and relies on Kate to get things done haha. Our family, friends and our dog Flynn are the most important things to us, but we are also workaholics who appreciate doing well in our given careers.

The proposal? …Tell me a little bit about it…

It was done in Adelaide at a park bench that was put up in memory of Kate’s grandfather as he was president of the Adelaide Rotary club. As we had been together for so long, Richard wanted to make sure it was done somewhere special that had a special meaning to Kate. We had been in Adelaide for a week long holiday in Barossa Valley and to visit Kate’s Granny who lives there. On the way to the airport to head back to Perth, we stopped off at the bench so Rich could see it and Rich proposed. Kate’s dad was in Adelaide at the time so Rich had asked him the night before if he could ask and Dad said yes 🙂
