WEDDING CELEBRATIONS: BIANCA & JOSH
Bianca & Josh, a love story sealed in dreamy Fiji. From designing Bianca's breathtaking bespoke Heart-shaped Perlina engagement ring to creating their gorgeous matching Memory Rings engraved with "FOREVER", it's been such a special journey to be part of.
HOW DID YOU BOTH MEET?
We met in December of 2018 in a local pub in our hometown. Our hometown is located in Queensland and is quite small only about 5,000 people. We had mutual friends that we both knew and just connected through there on a night out.
WHERE & WHEN DID YOU GET MARRIED - TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR SPECIAL DAY.
We got married in Fiji on the 4th of April. It was the most perfect day I could not have asked for anything more. I always wanted a destination wedding, and when Josh was just as keen, we knew it was the perfect thing for us. We wanted to incorporate the Fijian culture as much as we could. From a Fijian warrior following me down the aisle to Fijian dancers and a fire show. My mum had little surprises along the way as she was the main planner of my whole wedding (will always be grateful for her), she surprised us with fireworks on the beach, and I cried the whole time, just so in shock at what was happening. We danced the night away after that, and it was absolutely perfect.
TELL US ABOUT YOUR ENGAGEMENT AND WEDDING RINGS. WHAT WAS THE PROCESS LIKE FOR YOU? WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE ASPECTS OF THE PIECE?
I had always wanted a Cassandra Mamone piece. I had her rings saved in an album on Instagram. The heart diamond was always something I had my eyes on and knew I wanted. We never wanted anything too glitzy as our wedding bands, just simple and classic, with the words ‘FOREVER’ engraved, just seemed inevitable for us, as it is something we always say to each other. We even had a running theme throughout our wedding of ‘Forever & Always’.
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE PART OF THE WEDDING DAY?
The whole wedding that fact that it was in beautiful Fiji with our nearest and dearest, just made it all the more special. We had 47 people attend our wedding, including us, so it was the perfect number and everyone enjoyed the whole aspect of it being a holiday for them too.
ANY HONEYMOON PLANS?
We left Fiji and flew straight to Los Angeles, then Miami to a 7-day cruise on Virgin Voyagers to Nashville and lastly Dallas. I wanted our honeymoon to be something special that we will never forget. As I said my mum planned most of my wedding. I focused on the honeymoon.
