Being taller than average paid off for Erin and Levi when they were able to see above the crowds and lock eyes in a busy bar.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot long after we began dating we were already living together and inseparable,\u201d says Erin, 35.<\/p>\n

Levi, 34, popped the question on the shores of Lake Daylesford as the couple enjoyed a candlelit dessert.<\/p>\n

The couple kept their elegant barn wedding in the picturesque Victorian town, choosing new venue, The Burrow Event Space, nestled in the Wombat Forest National Park for their celebrations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted it to feel like another family get-together, rather than a fancy wedding as that\u2019s just not us,\u201d Erin explains.<\/p>\n

The couple\u2019s ceremony was held beneath the gum trees in a classic Australian scene, but the reception in the newly-built barn had a taste of the USA.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs Levi is from the States, we wanted a wedding that felt Australian but also celebrated American culture, so we found a fabulous caterer that did slow cooked American style BBQ,\u201d Erin says.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur wedding was an amazing celebration because of all the people we had around us.\u201d<\/p>\n
