Chelsea and Ryan tied the knot at St Mary Oatlands Church followed by a reception at Oatlands Park Hotel

Chelsea and Ryan met at a family wedding. “In the evening, we both had a bit too much drink and kissed on the dancefloor in front of everyone,” says Chelsea. “My dad came in between us, and the rest is history!”

Ryan popped the question at the Yosemite National Park in California. “We went on a road trip back in 2018,” shares the bride. “Ryan insisted we visit the park, so we spent a couple of days there. We parked at the bottom of a mountain for a picnic. We walked up to the top, which was scary as we had to watch out for bears because of our food! Once we were at the top, we watched the sunset, and Ryan surprised me by asking me to be his wife. We came back down the mountain in complete darkness and managed to find our car. On the way back to the hotel, the car hit a pothole, and we spent an hour changing the tyre!”
