Our Story

We met the modern way, like it is for many - online.

Our first date was a Sunday morning coffee walk, three years ago. The coffee turned into a long wander and a long conversation, and from that morning on, it was always the two of us.

In the years since, we've built a life together in Auckland - bought our first home, filled it with slow mornings and home cooked dinners, and welcomed two very opinionated Bengal cats, Loki and Luna, who run the place.

One day, between the ordinary and the beautiful, Germán asked the question and Ellie said yes.

And now, we get to say it again - this time in front of the people we love most.

Event Details

The day will unfold at The French Café, a beautiful Auckland venue with a sun-drenched courtyard and intimate private dining space.

The address is 210 Symonds Street, Eden Terrace, Auckland 1010.

Street parking is available across from the restaurant, and there's an Auckland Council carpark at Symonds Street and Mt Eden Road, about a two minute walk away.

Wishing Well

Your presence on our wedding day is the greatest gift of all. If you'd like to give something more, we've set up a wishing well to help us build the next chapter together - a little nest egg for the family we hope to start.

On the day, we'll have a wishing well box at the venue if you'd prefer to give a card in person.
