Letitia Apted and Jamie Robinson met while they were both working at Movieworld – five years later and Jamie’s proposal was the stuff of a Hollywood rom-com.<\/p>\n
Jamie, 26, had organised for him and Leititia, 25, to spend a long weekend at a hotel in their hometown of the Gold Coast, planning a special surprise while they were there.<\/p>\n
“Jamie had organised with the concierge to have our room set up with champagne\u00a0and roses with the ring and a letter from him for when we arrived. We went up to the room and it was\u00a0empty. Jamie said his heart sank right down to the bottom floor,” Letitia says.<\/p>\n
A trip downstairs and a short walk later and the couple returned to a different scene.\u00a0“It was all perfectly set up,” Letitia says. “We both cried and he only just managed to get out \u2018Will you marry me?'” she says.<\/p>\n
The couple spent just over a year planning their classic wedding and the bride says it wasn’t short of stressful moments – first they were forced to change their venue and then their florist<\/a>\u00a0moved interstate. While a concern at the time, Letitia says the changes ended up improving the big day.<\/p>\n She and Jamie wed at Braeside Chapel on the Gold Coast on May 23, 2014 in front of 55 guests.\u00a0“Braeside ended up being the perfect spot and all our guests commented on how\u00a0picturesque the venue was,” Letitia says.\u00a0Celebrations then moved to Parkwood International<\/a>.<\/p>\n “Our wedding was totally true to us and a true reflection of us as a couple,” Letitia says.\u00a0“Everyone had a great time and\u00a0there was plenty of laughter.”<\/p>\n Photos courtesy of Leigh Warner Weddings.<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Blue with lace detailing was the gown of choice<\/a> for Letitia’s bridesmaid.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pretty blooms in pink, white and mauve shades made for an eye-catching bouquet<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Violinist Frank Fodor<\/a> provided emotional music at the couple’s ceremony.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n “My oldest and best friend is a guy so I made the decision to have a \u2018bridesman\u2019.
