Justin slid into Samantha\u2019s DMs before \u201cit was even a thing\u201d.<\/p>\n

The pair had mutual friends and added each other to Facebook, but it was several months before Justin asked her over messenger for a date. “We were inseparable from then on,” smiles Sam, 29.<\/p>\n

The bride says the proposal is something they laugh about now. It was one evening in bed when Justin, 28, thought he had received a scam email asking him for thousands of dollars. \u201cHe turned to me in bed and showed me this email, I scrolled through it and saw the email signature Diamond Exchange, so I Googled it,\u201d Sam recalls. \u201cI told Justin it’s from a shop in Melbourne, and he swiftly grabbed the phone back. Turns out it was a legit invoice for the ring! From that point on I had it in the back of my mind that it might finally happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

They wed at their winery wedding on December 14, 2019 at Tarrawarra Estate in Yarra Glen. \u201cWe knew we wanted something a bit more low-key than the traditional wedding to celebrate us,\u201d says Sam. \u201cWe’ve kept things relatively minimal and laid back. All we need is our friends, family, food, and good music<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n
