Ceremony date and location
*
Describe your first meeting
Everything, who was there, what were you both wearing, what was the temp, how did you FEEL?
Favorite physical feature of your partner, would they guess this?
How would you describe them in a few words when you first met, compared to how you would describe them now?
*
NO one-word descriptions!
Describe your first date, or the first official date
*
Who picked up who? Where did you go? Who were you nervously messaging about it? How long did it take you to get dressed? What about it made you want to see them again?
Tell me a funny habit or quirk your partner does that other people might not know.
I HAVE to wipe the bench before bed, and sleep talk. My partner does air golf swings in the kitchen and gets song lyrics wrong more than right.
What lights you up about your partner, what are their great qualities and attributes?
I know it's mushy, but it makes me feel warm. Tell me!
Who said the L word first, what was the situation?
*
(L word is LOVE)
How has your partner changed you, made you a better person?
*
this can be anything from housework to your core qualities and values.
If your partner only had a weekend left on earth how would they spend it?
*
...you can't get overseas and back in a weekend BTW...
When did you know that your partner was THE ONE?
*
Was it a series of events, did one moment seal the deal? (This can't be when they asked you to marry them)
Describe your partner as a Spotify playlist or a song...
If you couldn't guess I am 'Romantic Pop'
What does marriage mean to you - why do you want to marry this person?
*
Don't just say to make it legal, DUH! Maybe you want what your grandparents have, maybe you want the same name as them and your kids?
How do you like to spend time together?
Ultimate hang spot? Ideal date night? Hobbies/ shared interests? Fave get away?
Tell me about one of your favourite days. One of you most fond memories to look back on.
*
This can be from early on in your relationship or something recent. A big event, or a day at the beach. Tell me about what you felt, what they said and did, why you felt connected, or happy, or that you overcame something. All the small things that make it great.
Embarrassing moment or memory?
Maybe traveling, maybe when you first met, it's something they do all the time that makes you CRINGE.
The proposal
Take me on the journey, I want to know every detail.
Are either of you mad sporting fans or other fans?
*
Roosters #1 supporter? Harry Potter nerd?
Couple achievements (big and small)
*
What has shaped your relationship and led you to be here today? What obstacles have you overcome? What are you proud of?
Kiss and make up, how? Something sweet you know will make them smile.
*
What is the best way to get your partner back on side after a fight? I like a gin cocktail and some soy crisps;)
If you could make them vow to one thing you want them to do forever, what would it be?
*
Always take the bins out? Let you have Chinese once a week forever? Rub your feet when you are nervous? Pick you up from a big night out?
What is your partner known for amongst friends and family that would be funny to include?
*
I am the extrovert, can't say no to a party.
Pet hate, I know there is AT LEAST one
*
What is something your partner does that drives you BONKERS? For example, my partner: puts dirty washing NEXT to the washing basket, leaves the lid off the toothpaste, sings the words wrong to songs, leaves the finished toilet roll on the hook, forgets to lock the car, gets in the way at Aldi checkout, snores, farts in bed and socially smokes.... just to name a few (yes I feel a lot better now)
What is something you do that you know drives your partner crazy?
Leaving all-important conversations until right before sleep time, farting in the bed, leaving the screen door open?
Your drink of choice and your partners
What does your future hold?
*
Where do you see yourself as a married couple in 5, 10, 20+ years? Grey nomads, 6 kids, wrinkly and watching Netflix?
Family, past, present and future.
I would love to speak a little to your family and how they helped shape you to be who you are. Tell me a bit about your life growing up, what you love and what frustrates you about your family. Who do you look up to, who is a role model? Kids - want them, have them, can't stand them (all of the above)?
Your support crew
*
Will you have a crew standing up with you? Bridesmaids, Groomsmen, dog, none, both? Tell me a bit about them. I use this to introduce them and make sure everyone knows how special they are to you!
Partner's support crew
Who are they to your partner, who are they to you and who can take a joke best?
Special mention, is there someone important missing?
How should I acknowledge them?
