Good news guys, your dance moves actually can impress the ladies.<\/p>\n
Bradley Sommers, 30, must have busted out some special skills when he met Ileana Artiga, 28, on the dance floor of a night club in Adelaide. \u201cHe messaged the next day, we went on a date for dinner and a few drinks in Glenelg and the rest is history,\u201d smiles Ileana, who hails from El Salvador. Six months later they were living together.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately a passport hiccup prevented Brad from undertaking his epic proposal plan. The couple were booked for a trip to Bali, but whoops, just days before they were set to leave, Ileana realised her passport had expired. \u201cHE WANTED TO KILL ME!\u201d she laughs. So Brad proposed<\/a> on the Gold Coast on a Valentine’s Day cruise instead. \u201cIt was a complete surprise,\u201d smiles Ileana.<\/p>\n Their classic wedding took place on February 2, 2015 with a church ceremony and reception at Belair Park Country Club<\/a> in South Australia. Ileana and Brad opted for clean, simple, elegant styling but that didn\u2019t stop the reception turning into a festival of colour. \u201cWe had a carnival after the first dance with Latin music, vodka and Jager shots, funny hats, necklaces and masquerades,\u201d explains the bride. \u201cBrad and I had an amazing time.\u201d<\/p>\n Photos courtesy of Panache Photography.<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
