After a shocked \u201cyes\u201d from Brooke, she began <a title=\"The most popular wedding dates to get married\" href=\"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/articles\/popular-months-and-seasons-to-get-married\/\">thinking about a wedding date<\/a>. \u201cI\u00a0<\/span>realised that he proposed at <span class=\"aBn\"><span class=\"aQJ\">21:00<\/span><\/span> hrs (<span class=\"aBn\"><span class=\"aQJ\">9pm<\/span><\/span>) on the 21st, we were staying on level 21 at the Shangri-La, we had table 21 at dinner,\u201d explains Brooke. \u201cIt just had to be a 21st.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"m_-5575340730536643048MediumGrid21\">And so, they were married at their floral rustic wedding on October 21, 2016 at Panorama House in New South Wales\u2019 Bulli Tops. \u201cThe day before was super windy and being up on the mountain it was not ideal for an outdoor ceremony,\u201d describes Brooke. \u201cAs soon as Dad and I started walking down the aisle a big gush of wind flew my veil in front so it got to Steve before I did!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"m_-5575340730536643048MediumGrid21\">But Brooke took the incident as a sign of loved ones not able to be there on the day. \u201cMy Grandpa&#8217;s anniversary of his passing was also on this day, and I swear that was him toying with me trying to mess up my hair which he always did when I visited him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"m_-5575340730536643048MediumGrid21\">The couple honeymooned in Hawaii.<\/p>\n<p>Photos courtesy of <a title=\"Greg Campbell
