since we tied the knot!
How We Met
A boy from the UK keen to explore the surrounds from his new home of Perth searched #bluffknoll on Instagram. A girl, having recently been on a hike to the top of Bluff Knoll, had shared a picture from that hike with #bluffknoll. The boy saw this picture, and his interest was piqued....and after a little peruse of this girls Instagram account, thought, he would like to get to know her. This girl received a "follow request" notification from a boy - @ryeanders, she had a peruse of his Instagram account and it piqued her interest. A few months went by of liking each others photos, to then commenting on each others photos. Then one Saturday afternoon the boy decided to ask her on a date. By now its clear that the girl said 'yes'... and the rest of this modern day love story is history!

We already have a home, and all the trimmings we need, therefore your presence is present enough. However if you do still wish to give something we will have a wishing well to go towards our honeymoon.
