Rachael & Moses

Rachael and Moses' one-hour meet-up turned into a six-hour date.

Rachael Williams and Moses Monro

Rachael Williams arrived to marry her love, Moses Monro, in the scoop of a tractor to the theme of Jurassic Park.

It was one of several personal touches the couple added to their wedding, which was held on the Macclesfield property of their friends Holly and Marc.

“We got married in a paddock under a stunning gum tree and an arbour that Marc made us and the reception was in their barn,” Rachael says.

“… The moment that I looked down and saw everyone I loved in front of me was such a special moment.

“I loved our entire ceremony.”

The Macclesfield couple was married by friend and Hire a Bridesmaid founder Kerstyn, who flew over from Sydney to be the celebrant.

“We (Kerstyn and I) met during a play we were doing together about nine years ago and so she knows us both and our journey so well, so it was amazing to have someone who did it all so personally,” Rachael says.

“It was fun and filled with laughter.

“It was very us.”

Rachael and Moses met while Rachael was living in Sydney and, during a one-hour meet-up that turned into a six-hour date, the pair bonded over their shared dream for their “own little patch” with chickens and a veggie patch.

“Years later we have that – it is truly a dream come true,” Rachael says.

Moses proposed in Sapa, Vietnam, after a three day hiking trip through the mountains.
