Wedding industry pro Richard, a planner for Mawson Lakes Retreat, knew what would bring high vibes for his wedding to Dean, on 4 November 2023, at Rydges Adelaide<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The couple chose the top-floor restaurant of the panoramic park-view hotel to celebrate their nuptials with a literal bang – fireworks and dry ice marking the couple’s reception entrance, and emotional first dance to Stevie Nicks’ ballad, Moonlight.<\/p>\n

Richard’s 18-year-old son and 16-year-old daughter accompanied him down the aisle, another emotional scene. The couple’s wish for the day was to start on a high and end on a high, assisted by an eclectic setlist of Dean’s favourite Fleetwood Mac songs, and Richard’s more modern Beyonce and Lady Gaga party-starters.<\/p>\n

A word of advice from Richard to other couples on the other side of their wedding day: “Just be aware that you might crash afterwards,” he said. He’s looking forward to receiving their final wedding video<\/a>, which will help to relive the day and keep those high vibes going.<\/p>\n

Richard’s name was one of 14,000 entries we drew in our latest Wedding Cash Giveaway<\/a> competition. The duo are heading off on a three-week road trip honeymoon, travelling up Australia’s east to the sunny Gold Coast. Their prize winnings couldn’t have come at a more perfect time.<\/p>\n
