The happy couple first met through Iain’s second cousins – and flower girls – Rosa and Greta, who Maria used to nanny. When their paths crossed again years later, the couple began dating.
Iain’s dramatic proposal took place after a helicopter ride to Paihia’s “Hole in the Rock,” where he became the first known person to pop the question there!
The pair’s gorgeous wedding ceremony was full of heartfelt details – Maria’s flowers were adorned with her nana’s pearls and brooch, and rose petal confetti for the guests was presented in her granddad’s wartime suitcase.
