Ask a girl to dinner, she might be yours. Ask a girl to breakfast \u2013 she could be yours forever!<\/p>\n

Zoe Stuttard, 27, and Michael Chaffer, 31, met while playing a friendly game of Oz Tag. She was a nurse, he was a sailor. \u201cMichael says I caught his eye from the moment he saw me, whereas I was unsure about involving myself with a sailor,\u201d laughs Zoe.<\/p>\n

But he asked her out to breakfast and that was putting his best foot forward, according to her. \u201cI thought to myself, there\u2019s something great about this guy, a first date is daunting, but a first date being a breakfast date, well this guy is a catch,\u201d Zoe\u00a0explains. \u201cI remember that afternoon receiving a message, \u2018You looked so beautiful today,\u2019 and from that moment I knew he was the one I would spend the rest of my life with.\u201d<\/p>\n

The couple married at their vineyard wedding<\/a> on March 14, 2015. More than\u00a0100 guests gathered at Rose\u2019s Vineyard at Lakes Innes, NSW for the ceremony and reception. Both growing up in small towns, Rose\u2019s Vineyard was the perfect choice of wedding venue, both being coastal and country at heart,\u201d smiles Zoe.<\/p>\n

Zoe says she loves Michael for his ability to appreciate the simple things in life. Michael adores Zoe for her beauty, intelligence and caring nature. The newlyweds honeymooned in the US.<\/p>\n

“My dress and shoes were my ‘something new'” says Zoe who borrowed pearl earrings and a veil from her mum and a friend and wore her late nan’s sapphire blue ring to complete the tradition.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
