Barefoot Bali Bride Cat & Jeremy Marry In Paradise

The Block lovebirds nail their blissful nuptials

- Beth Anne Macaluso

When it came to the gruelling 10 weeks he spent renovating an old villa on The Block NZ, Jeremy Hill was hard as nails and never shed a tear. But at the sight of his dazzling bride Cat Glass walking down the aisle in an intricate lace dress amid Bali’s picturesque rice paddies, the tough Kiwi bloke almost falls apart.

After a seven-year romance – which included winning the coveted People’s Choice Award in the 2015 season of the Three reality series – the New Plymouth couple are finally saying “I do” in front of 80 close family and friends in the rural countryside of the Indonesian island.

Cat’s Rue De Seine dress is the perfect embodiment of the couple’s relaxed attitude, with tropical-looking lace overlaying a crisp white bodysuit. Apart from a crown of flowers on her head, the bohemian bride keeps things simple, ditching shoes to stand barefoot opposite Jeremy under a flax gazebo.

“She looked amazing walking down the aisle – it was the closest I got to tearing up throughout the whole day,” kitchen designer Jeremy, 32, tells Woman’s Day later. “It was so surreal and my favourite moment from the wedding.”

Cat, 30, smiles, “Those big, poufy dresses just aren’t my style. The first purchase we made for the wedding was actually the dress. I bought it early in 2017 and I just knew it was the one.”
