Steph and Roar met completely by chance. Roar is from Denmark and was in Adelaide for a few weeks whilst studying. He decided to go out one night to explore Adelaide. Steph was also on a night out in town with her sister and some girlfriends. The pair met at a pub on the dance floor and the rest is history!
The Proposal
After five years together, Roar proposed on 10th April during their European holiday.
Tell us about the proposal:
We had just arrived in Salzburg from Amsterdam. Austria was the second place of our trip. I'm a big "Sound of Music" fan and was already on a high seeing one of my favourite places in real time. The day Roar popped the question, it couldn't have been a more beautiful day. The blue sky, the sun showing off and the scenery, just magic. We had spent the day exploring Hallstatt and Mondsee, and some other picturesque places nearby. After a classic Austrian schnitzel and beer, Roar had mentioned it would be a great night to take some drone photos of the castle, back at the hotel. I was clueless. The sunset was beautiful, and I was trying to capture the moment on my phone. He told me "Well I had hoped to get this on video, but the drone won't take off as it's too close to the airport". He then got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.
What are you most looking forward to about being married?:
Sharing a lifetime of memories together, our wedding, honeymoon, future holidays, building our own home, spending more time with friends, family and all our precious people.
The Ring
Steph's ring is a timeless and beautiful six-claw round brilliant solitaire.
What is your favourite aspect of your ring?
I just love the classic cut, round stone. It's so beautiful and I'm simply in love with my ring.
Why did you choose Class A?:
Roar had asked me what style of ring I might like. I wasn't sure. So, we went on a date to Class A to try some rings on. A big thank you to the Class A team for being so amazing! I truly had no idea what I wanted and you made this experience so fun, memorable and special.
Congratulations Steph and Roar!
