Rupert & Rachael - Iona College & family home wedding, Hawke's Bay

It is with a massive big grin on our face that we present the newly-minted Mr. & Mrs. Thomson. They blew in on a stiff summer breeze on the 17th of January, 2014, with a ceremony at Rachael's old alma mater, Iona College in Havelock North.I'm sure when Rachael was a bright-eyed school girl, she sat there during prayers and found herself dreaming of Mr. Right, and wondering if some day he would be standing across from her saying 'I do' at the front of the chapel. That question was answered one New Year's Eve when, (after booking tickets outta here for the big O.E.) Rachael spied the foxy and unattached Rupert across a crowded party, left her handbag as collatarel and the rest, as they say...is history (and a little bit of fairytale!).
