First-time Tinder user Elle managed to find love at first swipe when she met Jason.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had not used Tinder before and naively assumed that Jason also lived in Brisbane. We had our first date\u2026 where I discovered that he lived in Adelaide,\u201d Elle explains.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut our connection was undeniable.\u201d<\/p>\n

A long-distance relationship followed before Jason made the big move north.<\/p>\n

Jason popped the question on his 30th<\/sup> birthday and the couple began planning their country chic wedding.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had always imagined getting married near where I grew up, on the beautiful Northern Rivers of NSW. When we saw Christine\u2019s Church of the Two Grandfathers (at Rous Mill in the Byron Bay hinterland), we both knew it was the perfect location for us,\u201d Elle says.<\/p>\n

The historic church, surrounded by gorgeous gardens, perfectly suited the relaxed, laid-back vibe they were after.<\/p>\n

\u201cA few months prior to our wedding, disaster struck when the reception space at the venue burnt down in a freak fire. Luckily, everyone pulled together and we were able to have our reception in a beautiful marquee in the gardens behind the church,\u201d Elle says.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur wedding day was even better than we could have imagined. Everyone was smiling and laughing, the food was amazing, we had live music, there was so much dancing, and everything looked absolutely beautiful.\u201d<\/p>\n

“To us, our wedding couldn\u2019t have been more perfect. We were privileged to get married in a beautiful church in the countryside, surrounded by people who had travelled from all over to be with us,” Elle says.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Live music was an important part of the day for the pair, including The Wedding DJ<\/a>, who got everyone on the dance floor later in the evening. When it came to the food, dinner was served up family style and was created by Catering By Sharon<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
