HAYLEY + ANDY

A chance meeting while walking their furry friends was the start of this couple’s love story.

Hayley and Andy met one evening at the Torquay dog beach and both knew something special had begun. They were inseparable from that moment on.

Visits to the dog beach became a regular part of the couple’s daily routine, so when it came time to propose, Andy knew it was the perfect location. Out one evening with Cooper, their Golden Retriever, the couple found themselves on the beach at sunset with no one in sight. Andy seized the moment and surprised Hayley by dropping to one knee and proposing, Hayley’s dream engagement ring in hand. Hayley was blown away.

The couple’s first step in the planning process was booking Truffleduck event coordinators and everything flowed smoothly from there. The wedding theme was classic elegance with a modern twist, and Hayley was thrilled seeing her wedding day vision to life.

Truffleduck was able to recommend suppliers to Hayley and Andy, which made it easy for the couple to find exactly what they wanted to make the day perfect. As the vendors had all worked together before, it helped the day to run smoothly.

The couple chose many traditional elements for their wedding. The ceremony was indoors with a picturesque garden as the backdrop. Hayley walked down a white carpet aisle with her father to the iconic French ballad, La Vie En Rose. The aisle was lined with flowers and candles, leading to beautiful floral plinths, and of course, the man of her dreams.

The colour theme incorporated classic black and white with modern inclusions of sage green and blush pink. Andy and his groomsmen wore black suits with rose lapel pins – white for the groom and blush pink for the groomsmen, which tied in with the bridesmaids’ bouquets.
