roni & eliot

BACKyard wedding

Roni and Eliot met, quite fittingly considering where they got married, in Eliot’s parents living room where Roni had popped in to pay a visit to Elliot’s brother. Struck by her but just about to leave, he literally did 360s in the driveway on the way out, trying to muster the courage to walk back in to ask her out.

They very quickly recognised in one another the potential for something different. Each of them, I think it is safe to say, have healed the other in ways they didn’t know they needed. Each, has through sustained and unwavering support, built the other one up.

In stark contrast to the two of them the day was not without a fair share of drama. The biggest storm of the year hit mere minutes before the ceremony was set to take place, and almost at the same time (maybe as a result of) Eliot’s dog potentially stress ate some panadol, which if you don’t know is not exactly the elixir of life for pooches.

So, here’s to summer storms, to taking chances on the girl in your parent’s living room, to spontaneous backyard apothecary duties to save your dogs life. To Eliot and Roni and the new human growing in her belly, and the wonderful life they are building together.

 Enjoy
