Our Wedding

On July 19th, 2023 after adventuring on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia, Kalin took me to the Gibson Steps. The Gibson Steps are an 86-step staircase to the beach near the 12 apostles. As we got closer to the bottom of the staircase, I noticed a photographer and I thought to myself "wouldn't it be amazing if Kalin were to propose on the beach here?" However, the photographer packed up her belongings and left. I thought to myself "oh, well" and I asked Kalin to go to the edge of the beach with me and take a selfie. Once the selfie was taken, Kalin said "put your phone away" and as I did, he said "Lindsay, you have been a good girl, and you have waited long enough, Lindsay Victoria Schlueter, will you marry me?" honestly, I know there were more words that he said but I was filled with adrenaline and happy tears. I started to ugly cry as I said "yes I will marry you" and I looked to my right and there was a camera in my face. At first I thought to myself "why does a random bystander have this camera in my face?" Then it became apparent that he had hired a photographer to capture this moment. It felt like an absolute dream to be on a beautiful beach in Australia with an Australian photographer capturing the details of a day we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We cannot wait to see what the future holds for us as husband and wife.

If you should encounter any issues when planning your stay at Amsterdam Manor, please just ask for Hannah. While meals are available at the Amsterdam Manor, it is not an all-inclusive resort. This non- All Inclusive resort choice was an intentional decision due to the tremendous number of wonderful restaurants available on the Island. Some guests will surely be vacationing for a few days on either side of the wedding and we did not want anyone to feel tied down to one hotel type or culinary option for their whole stay.
