“The cat’s meow” | Peter + Michelle

They have many wonderful memories of their first years together; a Caribbean cruise to St Maarten, boating on the Sunshine Coast with their friends, Shaun and Jessica,
Michelle was quite bored until “The Rock” made an appearance and she turned into a giddy schoolgirl.

especially the day they spent at Smugglers Cove. A standout memory for Peter is taking Michelle to Wrestlemania in San Francisco. Michelle was a good sport about this, but was quite bored until “The Rock” made an appearance and she turned into a giddy schoolgirl and fit right in with the other 85,000 fans!

One of their favourite memories is the day they got their cat, Lainas. Peter chose him from the litter because he was the most affectionate. Michelle couldn’t believe that she had found someone as crazy about cats as she was and knew that “he was the one”. They both love and adore cats and even went as far as purchasing orange t-shirts and had their fur baby’s face silk screened on to them. In fact, Lainas was part of Peter’s proposal to Michelle.

For a time, Peter was living at his parents’ house and one evening asked them to go out for dinner so that he could have some alone time with Michelle. A rare event happened – he made dinner! After dinner Peter put Lainas on Michelle’s lap and got down on one knee and showed her the box.
Flabbergasted, she said “What is that?” After much laughter he showed her the ring

Flabbergasted, she said “What is that?” After much laughter he showed her the ring and asked her to marry him….she of course said yes.

Michelle chose the colours for her wedding because they are her favourite and “because Peter is such a good man, he agreed”. She found her wedding dress at a store called “The Vow”, which is also a TV show on TLC. They had gone to Boston to visit her godmother and went to the store to find the mermaid dress that Michelle had always dreamed of. Every mermaid dress she tried on looked terrible and she was getting quite discouraged.   They then brought out a dress that she was not interested in but tried it on anyway, at that moment she knew it was the one. She began to cry and so did her cousin! They Skyped her parents, her aunt and uncle – they all loved it too!

Peter and Michelle had a beautiful, memorable wedding day and both think each other is truly “the cat’s meow”!!
