Rebecca Harding, fiancée of Australian comedian Andy Lee, recently celebrated her upcoming wedding with a Wuthering Heights-themed hens party in Melbourne. The event, held over the weekend, saw Harding and her friends embrace the literary theme.
Harding herself adopted a look inspired by the theme, wearing a striking red corseted dress. Her hair was styled in soft curls, half-up and half-down, adorned with a long red ribbon, and accessorized with a heart choker and a feathered fan. The celebration included lunch at a French restaurant followed by a cabaret show in the city's central business district.
Photos and videos shared on Instagram by Harding and her guests, including stylist Elliot Garnut and AFL personality Emma Hawkins, captured moments from the day. The gathering appeared to be an intimate occasion, with Harding surrounded by close friends as she marked this significant pre-wedding milestone.
Harding and Lee are preparing to marry after more than a decade together. The couple has confirmed a wedding date set for later this year and have finalized their guest list.
Their relationship began in 2014 after meeting at a Melbourne café, where Lee famously left his email address for Harding on a napkin. Their first date followed the next day. After a brief separation early in their relationship, they reunited and have remained together since. Lee proposed after years of dating, an event Harding previously described as a genuine surprise despite their long-term relationship.
In March of the previous year, the couple shared insights into their wedding preparations, with Lee noting that planning had been slow due to their focus on an extensive renovation of their heritage-listed 1870s home on the banks of the Yarra River in Melbourne. The renovation project, estimated to cost $8 million, had consumed much of their decision-making time, according to Lee.
