Travel plans – always popping up\u00a0the same time as new love!<\/p>\n
But lucky for Amanda Beattie, 30, and Aaron Mariotti, 29, their romance was worth the wait. The couple met just before Amanda was heading overseas to experience Europe.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were both so upset we were not going to see each other for a few months. But he told me he would be waiting for me when I got back and boy was he right,\u201d she explains. They spoke every day and he collected her from the airport upon her return.<\/p>\n
Soon after they moved in together and began talking about marrying and starting a family. Fast-forward four years and Aaron popped the big question and they began planning their modern vintage wedding for February 27, 2015. \u201cMy main focus was the ceremony and making it personal and romantic,\u201d smiles Amanda. \u201cAaron and I wrote our own vows and involved all our siblings in the ceremony.\u201d<\/p>\n
While Amanda describes her day as perfect she has plenty of advice for brides-to-be. \u201cGet some more sleep the night before and don\u2019t worry about the small things in the lead up to the day.\u201d<\/p>\n
