Love Stories: Sam & Febe

Some love stories are loud and grand — others begin in quiet, familiar places and grow into something truly unforgettable. For Sam and Febe, it all started at work, where a shared glance and a knowing smile set everything in motion.

How did you and your partner first meet, and what was your first impression of each other?

"We crossed paths at work. Sam's smile and Febe’s eyes pretty much sealed the deal for both of us. Our bosses caught wind of us checking each other out and pretty soon after, Sam was always coming into the office to help us out with jobs."

Can you tell us about the moment you knew they were 'the one'?

"We both really felt so calm and comfortable around each other from the beginning. Our moments together became our most treasured memories. We so quickly became best friends, which was the foundation for our love story. What better way to spend your life than with your best friend."

What was the most special part of your wedding day?

"Definitely when the doors opened at the ceremony. We both were so excited to see each other, it truly felt like everything else fell away. It was waterworks from Sam from the get go. The tears turned into laughs and then back to tears. We were actually so excited to seal the deal with our first kiss as husband and wife that we forgot to put on our wedding bands."

How did you choose your wedding or engagement jewellery, and what made it feel right for you?

"We had heard from friends and family how personable their journey was with Claude & me. Sam had a seamless experience with Claude and Claudia choosing our engagement ring. When it came to choosing our wedding bands, Sam arranged a surprise date for us at the store. We spent the morning getting to relive our love story alongside Claude and Claudia. Choosing our jewellery was a very memorable part of our wedding planning."
