Freshwater View Reserve, Freshwater – Wedding

Kate and Nick’s wedding at Freshwater View Reserve was absolutely beautiful and It is wonderful to hear such beautiful and encouraging words. 

“Thank you for being so amazing the whole way through from our initial meeting to the big day and every meeting, email and supportive message in between. You made it so much fun, ensured it ran smoothly and we felt at ease the whole time. The day was perfect and we loved the ceremony more than we ever thought we would. It was so special!’

Hickson Park, Sydney – Wedding

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. MichelleDahneSmall-558Choosing 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.

Shelly Beach, Manly – Wedding

When Keirra and her mum walked around from Fairy Bower towards Shelly Beach the guests were all still wondering where Chris was. As they approached the edge of the beach, Chris appeared from the other end of the beach. While walking towards each other the standing ovation from the swimmers, surfers and divers was amazing.  After passing her daughters hand to her future son in law, Keirra’s mother made her way up to the ceremony and moments later Keirra and Chris followed.

It was a unique and stunning “walk down the aisle”

Palm Beach – Wedding

Jess&Nick(LowRes)-244Palm Beach Wedding  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.

Botanic Gardens, Sydney – Wedding

Manly WeddingTrish was wonderful to deal with. She is so calm and professional and helped us reshuffle everything last minute when the storm clouds decided to gather. I could not thank her enough for the part she played on our wedding day.”

 

Jade and I didn’t get much of a chance to interact with you during/after the ceremony so I just wanted to send a quick thank you email for your assistance throughout our wedding planning, in particular for your calm and professional approach given the very last minute changes to the ceremony. I can certainly say that your calmness helped hold it all together for the ceremony and had less cooler heads prevailed, things could have turned out exponentially more stressful and less successful. 

Thank you once again and best of luck going forward.

Kind Regards, 

Jade and Chen

Bradley’s Head, Mosman – Wedding

 anni 2

anni 4Name: 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!

 Anni & Christoph

Richmond Polo Club, Richmond – 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.

Shelly Beach, Manly – Wedding

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.Isabella (19)Sand Ceremony

Bowral, Wedding

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.

Sargeants Mess, Mosman – Wedding

Sargeants Mess, A beautiful afternoon on the foreshore of Sydney Harbour is where Lauren and Rohan say I DO at their wedding ceremony.

The ceremony and reception were held at Sargeants Mess where the staff are sensational. As Lauren walked down the steps to meet her lovely groom, there were Kookaburras on the balcony and a ferry passing by.  Both of their mothers  performed beautiful readings and gave their blessings to Lauren and Rohan.

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.

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.
