‘Sunset Surprise’

Though Vicky and Wayne, both 31, had known each other since school, it wasn’t until years later that they became a couple. “We met at  high school in 1990 but didn’t get together until we met again through a mutual friend three years after we’d finished school,” recalls Vicky. “We dated casually on and off for a few years in between travelling but we didn’t have a serious relationship until I finally asked Wayne to come live with me in Canada,” says Vicky, a nurse.  After living together for two years, Wayne, and electrician, proposed during a surprise holiday. “Wayne had organised a trip from Canada to Cuba without me knowing,” says Vicky.  “He just gave me a Lonely Planet guide book, two plane tickets and told me to pack,” she says. “He had even organised a week off from work for me. I didn’t think he could be that sneaky.”  Wayne proposed on a secluded beach in Cuba. “He waited until everybody else had left the beach and proposed as the sun was setting,” Vicky recalls. “The whole thing was a huge surprise- I had no idea what he was planning.” The Morningside couple held their ceremony in a park overlooking the beach at Currumbin and celebrated with friends and family at Currumbin Surf Club.
