Real Weddings

Hickson Park Reserve is one of my favourite locations for a ceremony so when Michelle and Dahne first invited me to be included in their ceremony I was very excited. Choosing between the Opera House or the Sydney Harbour bridge as a back drop is always a difficult decision.

Michelle looked absolutely stunning as she walked down the aisle and as you can see by a few photos …. tears not only by the guests, but Dahne as he watched her approach.

I heard the reception cruising Sydney harbour went on till early hours of the morning.

 Jess and Nick’s wedding ceremony at Palm Beach was so spectacular. They decided to swing the angle of the ceremony to use Palm Beach Headland and lighthouse as the backdrop rather than the ocean.  It couldn’t have been a better choice as it placed everyone in the shade on a rather warm afternoon.

I love the mix of pink and blue for the bridal party.

A wonderful afternoon spent at Dee Why Beach with an intimate Ceremony
With the sand beneath your toes as you say I DO

Oatlands House is always a stunning venue for a wedding ceremony and to be included in Stacey and Geoff’s ceremony was such an honour. Royal Blue is the colour this season and luckily it’s one of my favourite colours.

The wedding destination where your entire entourage  

Name: Anni & Christoph

Date: 27.11.2014

Location: Bradley´s Head, Sydney

Dress: ambacherVIDIC

Flowers: selfmade bouquet of peonies from Martin Place

Photographer: Karen Visser

Memorable moments: the vows, the nasty kookaburras, the location, everything else

Even though the weather wasn´t that perfect, our wedding was wonderful. Trish set up the scene and the ceremony as simple and easygoing as we wished. We came from Germany and Switzerland for our very small and intimate wedding in Sydney and had to organize everything from very far away overseas, but Trish made us feel secure all the time. She is so professional and the communication with her was easy. From the first e-mail on, we knew that we found the celebrant we wanted to make our wedding day unforgettable.

We highly recommend Trish and hope to see her again soon.

 Thank you so much!

  Bradley’s Head Wedding

Date: 1st Nov Sat 2014 at 11am

Location: Sydney Polo Club. Ceremony was on the lawns of the Polo Club, Reception in The Polo Barn.

Dress: Allure Bridal out of the Allure Romance Range. Purchased from Hills in Hollywood.

Flowers: were Delphiniums, spray roses, standard roses, lisianthus and freesias and these were also used on our vintage double door backdrop and in the vases for the tables. My bouquet was round bouquet with mauves, lilacs, bright blue and soft pinks. The bridesmaids were bright blue delphiniums in a round bouquet. We wanted the bridesmaids bouquet to just be one colour and style as their dresses weren’t just one colour and didn’t want it to be to busy. Our florist picked these flowers as we wanted a country and vintage feel and i loved the colours of these flowers. Our cake flowers were a mixture of the above as well as some succulents. These were from the Florist Red Poppies in Sevenhills.

Photographers: We had 3 amazing photographers from Studio Something Photography. They also made a 5 minute stop motion video for us and we had an open photobooth as well.

Memorable moments: Apart from marrying the man of my dreams my other favourite moments was having our Pug Oscar be our page boy and be there on the day. He is apart of our family and we wouldn’t have it any other way. The other one was having my 97 year old great pop being able to come and enjoy himself. He has such a young spirit and everyone just adores him.

This was one of my last weddings before having my beautiful daughter. I was 37 weeks pregnant and it was a beautiful summers afternoon on Shelly Beach, Manly. Riccardo and Isabella walked down the aisle hand in hand with some very close friends to witness this wonderful ceremony. It was lovely to feel the sand between our toes.

This truly stunning venue was perfect for Alex and Stephen. A sunny summers afternoon Alex was escorted down thru the gardens and down the aisle by their two gorgeous daughters to the sound of a solo guitarist.

Pre ceremony drinks were served so that champagne glasses were heard clinking when Alex sealed the marriage with a kiss.

Centennial Park is one of Sydney’s iconic landmarks and it is always a pleasure to work there. Especially when Holly arrived in a beautiful old London Taxi.

Photographers absolutely love a grey cloudy sky, pristine backdrop for Allison and Grant. Heavily pregnant, I was so lucky that a December wedding wasn’t too hot.

What a beautiful evening for small intimate wedding ceremony at Quay Restaurant, Passenger Terminal Sydney.  Ben and Suzie were surrounded by their family and close friends and as the sun set they committed themselves to each other with I DO.

Bowral, Weddings are always perfect at a country vineyard. Anna and Cameron’s wedding down in Kiama was so picturesque. I just adored this ceremony and festivities were had by everyone for the entire weekend. Getting married when there are children involved can always be tricky, luckily the bride and groom had hired a couple of nannies to look after everyone’s littlies for the afternoon.

Amy and Joel decided that as their birthdays were on the 16th and 17th October, then the 18th was a perfect date to be married. An intimate affair with close friends and family at Southern Highlands Wines a little lodge in Sutton Forest.

When the Rolls Royce arrived with Amy and her sisters, it was a moment of perfection.

When Doves fly…… how beautiful is a pure white Dove when it is realised at a wedding ceremony.

Flora and Josh’s ceremony was just perfect with crystal blue skies and a warm sunny afternoon

Its pretty amazing when you officiate the wedding of your brother…. and of course being 4 months pregnant I also had the role of MC, being the only sober one!

Held in the serene hinterland of Byron Bay, all the guests made the wedding an excuse to combine it with a relaxing and social holiday.

A perfect venue for a perfect couple! With family coming in from all over the world to such a lovely venue there was nothing that could hinder this day.  Fountaindale Grand Manor on the Illawarra Highway is a delightful old manor where the guests can party all evening, sit by the log fires for a night cap  and then stumble upstairs for a very comfortable night sleep.

How could I resist this picture when Zoe and Robert sent it to me…… it set the style for the entire ceremony. With the page boy in a penguin suit and the cake loaded with penguins…..

Taronga Zoo was the perfect venue for Zoe and Roberts wedding.

With warm woolly coats on, the guests all waited in anticipation. Fresh snow on the ground, the river running in the background and a stunning red carpet to walk down the aisle on.  To see the look on Chris’s face as Di took the long walk down the aisle from the Thredbo Alpine Hotel where she had been getting ready. Afterwards Di and Chris rode the chairlift  up to the top of the mountain for some wonderful photos.

I absolutely adored this ceremony. Julia and David were both dressed in gorgeous thespian clothing with stunning feather bouquets and tight corsets. The boys tuxedos all had tails and the only thing missing were the top hats!

A wonderful Autumn wedding ceremony in the Gardens of Sylvan Glen Country House and Golf Course. With Shannon and Dan tying the knot with their closest family and friends to witness…. and of course how can you not have your puppy carrying the rings down the aisle.
