Story
Here is a snippet of their story which the judges loved so chose them as Round Two winners, their prize includes a Venue upgrades package!
Courtney & Judd
After years of happy memories, we were overjoyed to be expecting our first daughter in 2022, but heartbreakingly lost her in 2023.
Our love only grew stronger, and we were blessed with the news of a second daughter—sadly, we lost her too in 2024. Despite the pain, our bond deepened and we decided to marry and embrace joy in our lives again and to start a hopeful new chapter.
When they found out they had won round two, the couple said:
“We honestly can’t believe we’ve won this competition not just once, but twice! We are beyond grateful and still a little in shock.
From the very beginning, Bespoke has been incredible. Because of you, we’ve been given the opportunity to achieve our dream wedding — something that means the absolute world to us. After a really rough few years, it feels amazing to finally have a bit of luck on our side.
When we first entered the competition, it honestly felt too good to be true… and yet here we are again celebrating this incredible win. We truly can’t thank you enough for the kindness, generosity, and opportunity you’ve given us.
Thank you for helping make our dream wedding possible. We are so grateful to be part of this journey with you.”
