Bride and Groom


Chrissy
From Australia, born and bred!
Chrissy grew up in the Yarra Valley, Victoria, in the small town of Healesville. She grew to love hunting kangaroos, fishing...for fish... camping and drinking nice wine! Loves a good plonk! After starting her career as an I.T. programmer, she soon realised she was born to be a pilot! Once a pilot, she moved to the central Australian outback- flying for 3 years, then to New Zealand. After 9 months flying in NZ, she moved to the USA to fly for the airlines, where she ended up re-meeting Mark and never made it back home to Australia :)

Mark
Mark is the most amazing man you will ever meet! He is loved by all and for a good reason. He was born in Saratoga Wyoming USA, and went to Uni (completing an Agronomy degree) in Nebraska. He started his career working with golf courses and design, but soon found his calling as a third generation outfitter and business owner. Growing up with his father being an amazing outfitter, Mark was lucky enough to build on his fishing and hunting skills from an early age!

Maid of
Honour
CAERA
Well.. what to say about Caera!! I have known Caera pretty much my whole life and we have been joined at the hip ever since that day we both met in primary school when we had snuck away from the class and ran into each other hiding in the library. We have been through absolutely everything together and she really is my soul sister! Our stories and adventures can go on for hours.
We spent full school holidays at each others houses, many parties and lots and lots and lots of detentions..!! It was never just ‘Chrissy’ or ‘Caera’… It was always “Chrissy & Caera” and always will be!
She is kind, patient, intelligent, selfless, grounded, loyal and a straight up bad ass! She is someone everyone looks up to.. She has always been there for me, no matter the distance, and I know I can count on her for anything. I couldn’t imagine my life without her in it!

WHITNEY
I have known Whitney since high school! She was always there with Caera and I getting into mischief. She’s a pro in the horse industry, super loyal, up for any adventure with some froffs and always tells you how it is - and that’s why we love her!

MICHELLE
Michelle is my one and only younger sister! She is full of beans, loves hiking and camping, a great drinking buddy and super fun personality! She has a cat that has the best gunt I’ve ever seen - on animal or human.. She lives in Chicago USA with her man Joey

MARIE
My spirit sister! I met Marie in Ayers Rock! We were friends from the get go and I knew there was something different about her. Together, we ran that town!! From fancy dinners in the outback to crazy drives to Alice Springs! She is super kind-hearted, confident, and understands my forever connection to the outback!

LINDA
Linda is the kindest most beautiful person you will ever meet! Being around her is so warming and always makes you happy. She helped me find my wedding dress! It is an absolute privilege to have her in my life

Ed
Mark's father Ed! Ed lives in Nebraska with his wife- Marks mother, Wendy. He loves to hunt and fish, which is where Mark got it from!

LUKE
Luke is Mark’s long time good friend! He lives in a small town in Nebraska with his wife Sierra and newborn baby Sutton!

MARK
Mark is responsible for getting us together. He is a member at Rock Creek and a good friend of both the bride and groom. Chrissy met both Mark.B and Mark.L in New Zealand when Mark.B was taking them on a guided fishing trip. One and half years later Mark Linehan was very persistent in us reconnecting, despite us not wanting to be ‘set up’ with someone… Mark.L knew it was meant to be, so got us to reconnect without knowing! And of course – we hit it off straight away and the rest was history. He is responsible for our relationship and we will be forever indebted. He is a super caring and thoughtful guy, superb fisherman, golfer and hunter, and we owe it to him for getting us together. He is our VIP!
