BRIDESMAIDS

Jaimee Field

Jaimee Field

Maid of honour

Jaimee is currently residing in Adelaide, Australia with her boyfriend Evan and their ever expanding in-home zoo.  She works as a radiographer so has many weird and wonderful work stories.  Jaimee has known Alicia since year 9 home room.  Since that day they have created strange and unusual ways to pass their time; lemonade sculling wars, plotting to take over the world, and constantly cite that they have a “shared superior mind”.  It can’t be said that their encounters have matured since then – but that’s half the fun….

Bridesmaid

Inseparable since kindergarten, I do not remember my life without Alicia. Together, we have been through it all, from playing Barbies where Ken always gets the girl.. Then dreaming about marrying JTT, Hanson or The backstreet Boys (and no, not all at once)… to getting ready for our school balls together and finally on to uni during which time we both met our forever men.

Whenever we get back together it is like no time has passed at all. We will talk rubbish and become two giggling crazies. You can bet we will be the same when we are 89 years old reminiscing about our crazy adventures and shaking our walking sticks at the youths of 2066.

I am so looking forward to being a part of the memories you and Shaun will fill in from here to there and beyond as you embark on this journey of marriage together. You have been through so much together, you compliment and balance one another and seem to have this relationship thing down to a fine art.  I wish you only the absolute best going forward. So excited to have you both back in my little family’s lives on a more permanent basis.

Bridesmaid

Siobhan is a Marketing and Operations director and a Mother. She is the one who will say the things you are probably thinking out loud and if you’re up for a dance she will be right there with you.

Alicia and Siobhan met in 2001, and in that moment; time slowed, classical music played, the air smelt of candy floss and Alicia was just trying to figure out how to accurately pronounce her name….Their friendship has endured teenage hormones, the highs, the lows and the realism of the world as we know it.  We will always be true best friends for life.

I will never forget meeting Shaun for the first time in your parents kitchen.  I got goose bumps.  I knew it all those years ago, you are meant for each other and I couldn’t be happier for you both.

For those of you who don’t know, although the twins are similar, Bobby is currently styling a beard so you will be able to tell the difference. Bobby is always up for a chat regardless of the subject, and is excited for his twin to being tying the knot!
