Neve and Thomas | Cloudy with a Chance of Happily Ever After

Neve and Thomas | Cloudy with a Chance of Happily Ever After

At The Classic Jewellers, we are privileged to witness beautiful love stories unfold, and it brings us immense joy to play a role in a couple’s most treasured moments. This time, we had the honor of catching up with Neve and Tom, a couple whose journey together is as touching as it is inspiring. From the serendipity of their first meeting to their heartfelt proposal, their love story is one we are excited to share.

Love has a way of unfolding when you least expect it, and for Neve and Tom, their journey together began in high school and reunited again by chance years later.  

How did you and Neve meet, what defining moments in your relationship made you realise that they were the one? Would love to hear both sides of the story! 

Neve: Tom moved to my school in year 9 when we were 14 years old and we became friends. Like many of the girls at school, I had a crush on the new boy but he didn’t realise I liked him. Our friendship group grew apart when school ended but we reconnected via bumble in 2022 and Tom finally realised what had been in front of him all those years. I knew after our first date that we would have something special together. I knew he was the one when I saw how supportive and loving he is, our relationship has only grown stronger through the ups and downs we have faced together in life.

Tom: I realised I wanted to spend my life with Neve because she makes me feel at ease and that coming home to see her after a long day is a gift. I want to always be around her and can’t wait to experience life with her by my side.

What traits do you both appreciate most in each other? 

Neve: Tom is kind, funny, intelligent, supportive and driven. He is always there for me when I need him and is able to find the positive side in difficult situations. He is my biggest supporter and lifts me up when I am doubting myself. He is not just my fiancé, he is my best friend and I can’t wait to create an amazing life together.

Tom: I love how she cares and wants to see me succeed in all aspects of my life. I know she will always be there for me even when times are tough. I appreciate the way that she thinks about us in every decision she makes because we are a team and she’s my partner for life.

We've heard all about it in store but tell us again about your romantic proposal that Tom so thoughtfully planned!

We had been travelling around the South Island of New Zealand, I thought he might propose while we were away, but it was such a surprise when he actually did.

We had travelled that day to Fox Glacier in the South Island and were meant to have a scenic helicopter flight that afternoon, but it was cancelled due to cloudy weather.

I was a bit disappointed about the helicopter being cancelled so Tom suggested we drive to Lake Matheson which was nearby and do the walking track there.

Lake Matheson is breath-taking, I would highly recommend visiting it if you’re travelling to NZ, it is a stunning mirror lake with reflections of the nearby mountains.

I was not expecting anything to happen but as we reached the viewpoint on the walk, I was looking out over the lake taking photos and when I turned around Tom was on one knee and asked me to marry him. It was the most stunning view and a very memorable proposal.

We love how much thought and effort Tom went into designing your gorgeous engagement ring, tell us about your experience with The Classic Jewellers and any tips you have for couples searching for their engagement rings? 

Working with The Classic Jewellers on Neve’s ring was an excellent experience. I had no idea what to expect with the process of designing an engagement ring but they made the process stress-free and enjoyable. The team at The Classic Jewellers were able to guide me through all the features of engagement rings and were wonderful in helping me create the perfect ring for Neve.

What are you both looking forward to in your new chapter together?

We can’t wait to come in and create our wedding bands together. We are looking forward to planning our wedding together, and to celebrate our love with all our friends and family.
