Jarrod Jacobson and Tahnee Rub felt like the luckiest couple in the world when they met each other four years ago after ‘swiping right’ on a dating app.

The groom even affectionately calls his bride his ‘Tinderella’, which she embraces wholeheartedly.

The beach-loving Toowoomba couple had a dream of a perfect waterfront wedding, and last month it came true when Jarrod watched Tahnee walk down the aisle at the Caloundra Power Boat Club’s wedding garden.

The bride felt overwhelmed as she saw her groom, surrounded by family and friends, with the amazing backdrop, with the groom saying that was his favourite moment on the day.

Their 71 guests – mostly from Toowoomba, Casino and the Central Coast – rocked the night, with dozens of silly, crazy and fun photo booth memories to keep.

The loved-up couple’s first dance was on a ‘dancefloor cloud’, another favourite moment of the day.

They said they truly felt like guests of honour, with hair and makeup like superstars, an amazing photography team, their celebrant guiding them every step of the way and the staff at the venue making their day spectacular.

Tahnee and Jarrod are over the moon to share their photos now they’re back from their honeymoon in Bali.

See a video of their special day here.
