Keegan Carter is a hopeless romantic, and he didn\u2019t disappoint on his wedding day to Brooke McNamara.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing such a romantic – a Sheraton suite\u00a0with rose petals for my 18th, a horse-and-carriage ride for my 21st and plenty of roses in between – no-one was really sure how he was going to top it with the proposal,\u201d smiles Brooke, 23.<\/p>\n

But he did; a proposal involving beauty treatments, a butterfly release and a perfectly-chosen white gold diamond ring, topped off by the fact their friends were secretly there to share in the whole thing. “Little to my knowledge I was being filmed and about 20 of our friends were hiding in our room watching the whole proposal unravel with tissues in hand,” recalls the bride.<\/p>\n

The pair married at their pet-friendly<\/a>\u00a0wedding\u00a0on December 11, 2015 with 70 guests at Mount Tamborine. \u201cI rode down to my prince on an 18-hand-high, beautiful Friesian \u2013 that\u2019s a really tall black horse,\u201d explains\u00a0Brooke.<\/p>\n

And of course, their border collie, Konan, who helped propose with a sign around his neck that read, ‘Brooke, will you marry my daddy?’, was also included, playing a starring role in some of their beautiful photographs. \u201cI really have a love for animals<\/a> and my groom [24] and I couldn’t imagine our special day without our fur son being right there beside us both.\u201d<\/p>\n

The bride says the couple had a little competition of whose vows were going to evoke the most tears. \u201cHis won of course, being such a romantic,\u201d she smiles. \u201cOur strong, passionate love for each other was really felt through everyone on the day and I couldn’t have asked for it to be more perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n
