THE HAPPY COUPLE

DAISY CLINGAN, 31 DAVID HEAVISIDE, 29

Daisy and David’s love story is embedded in one of the couple’s greatest loves — music festivals. They first met when they camped next to each other at a bush music festival, but it wasn’t until Rainbow Serpent in 2009 that they began dating. Three years later, at the Eclipse music festival in Cairns, David popped the big question. “Dave proposed in our campervan,” Daisy said. “I was completely surprised.” The two were married on January 27 in Hernes Oak, Victoria. “It was a very small and intimate wedding,” Daisy said. “Everyone we love got to know each other and bond together.” The couple flouted the usual wedding traditions and made the day their own. “I walked down the aisle twice,” Daisy said. “The first time as my stepdad gave me away and the second time I walked him down in a grass skirt with a coconut bra — it was hilarious.” Daisy was thrilled her Granny was able to attend the wedding to see the first of her grandchildren tie the knot. There was no traditional first dance, but a bit of a dance-off to Meatloaf’s ‘I Would Do Anything For Love’ late in the evening. To come full circle on their relationship, Daisy and David celebrated their honeymoon and seven-year anniversary at Rainbow Serpent. “We got showered with love and gifts from many people we had only just met — we even got a beautiful song written for us,” Daisy said. “We wouldn’t change a thing.” THE ESSENTIALS MET A bush festival THE DRESS A blush-pink, one-shouldered Grecian design CEREMONY & RECEPTION Hernes Oak, Victoria PHOTOGRAPHER Frank Yang, Leaf Picture Framing and Photography, Craigieburn
