On December 20th, 2015, we decided to have an early Christmas dinner with my family. We had opened all the presents and were cleaning up all the wrapping paper when Reid said: "I think you've missed one". My brother and I turned around to look under the tree thinking he was mad, turned back around to find he was down on one knee! He said, "I know you didn't want me to do this overseas because it wouldn't be close enough to your family, I hope today that this is close enough." With my family watching on, he asked me to marry him. All I could do was nod 'yes'; I was so surprised.

Dear Reid,

Nearly four years ago I made the best decision going on a blind date with you. Who knew it would go so well!

Since then we have moved in together, got engaged, become pregnant, married and now have beautiful baby Ted.

You have made me unbelievably happy. I always wanted to meet a man with great family values, good work ethic and old-fashioned manners. Well, I struck gold, because you possess all those things and more.

We have so much fun together, I can always let my dork flag fly with you, it doesn’t seem to phase you at all. In fact, I agree with you when you say “I've made you just as mad”!

It is the greatest honour to become Mrs Hjorth and our best job to date is to be baby Ted’s mumma and dad. He really is the most wonderful gift you have given me.

You are my teammate, lover and best friend. Excited to spend the rest of our lives together.

Love you always,

Manfa aka darl xxx

Wedding date: 3 June, 2016
