Niloufar never imagined sitting next to a stranger on a plane would lead to lasting love.<\/p>\n
That stranger was Jeremy, and on the flight from LA to Melbourne they had plenty of time to get to know each other.<\/p>\n
“The flight was delayed and then cancelled due to engine trouble, so we were both very tired,” Niloufar, 35, recalls.<\/p>\n
“We happened to be seated next to each other on the plane, in a section that just had two seats. The flight delay was the topic of initial conversation between us. We then didn\u2019t stop talking for the entire 17-hour flight, with just one hour of sleep. We had so much in common and suddenly realised we shared many interests and hobbies.”<\/p>\n
The couple met up for dates back in Melbourne and quickly realised they had found “the one”.<\/p>\n
Jeremy, 34, popped the question while the pair were on holiday in Hawaii and they began planning their classic wedding for March 26, 2017.<\/p>\n
“Our wedding day was by the bay, at Sandringham Yacht Club<\/a>,”\u00a0Niloufar says. “We tried to keep it simple but special and elegant and just celebrate our love and make sure everyone had a good time.”<\/p>\n The couple cruised around the bay for photos, held a personalised Baha’i ceremony on the deck and celebrated their reception with their 86 guests at the same venue.<\/p>\n “The love we share and our special bond clearly permeated every aspect of the wedding,” Niloufar says.<\/p>\n “Our guests could feel this too. With very little formalities, everyone enjoyed the simplicity, elegance and romance of our wedding by the sun-kissed bay in Sandringham.”<\/p>\n Photos courtesy of\u00a0Iain and Jo – We tell Love Stories<\/a>.<\/p>\n Niloufar chose three pairs of shoes from Shoes of Prey<\/a> to ensure she stayed comfortable and could keep dancing all night.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Cala lilies, baby’s breath and blue hydrangea featured in Nilou’s bouquet by Thrive Flowers and Events<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
