On Sunday 18 January 2026, something truly special unfolded at Adams Peak Estate.
The annual 2 Montys Wedding Auction brought together an extraordinary group of local wedding vendors, supporters and community members, all united by a shared goal: to support Hunter locals navigating breast cancer.
The result was nothing short of incredible.
A wedding package valued at $104,000
Thanks to the generosity of dozens of talented vendors who donated their time, expertise and services, the final wedding package reached an astonishing $104,000 in value.
From venues and styling to photography, fashion, food and everything in between, this was a once-in-a-lifetime package built on collaboration, creativity and heart.
Each contribution, no matter the size, helped create something far greater than any single business could have achieved alone.
Congratulations to the winning couple
After an exciting auction, Aleisha and Michael were announced as the winning bidders, securing the incredible wedding package with a final bid of $55,000.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Aleisha and Michael and wish them all the very best as they plan their special day. Their generosity will make a meaningful difference to the lives of people facing breast cancer right here in the Hunter.
A community effort at its finest
