Tomo & Clarrie's Unique Sunnybrae Estate Wedding
Nothing could stop Tomo & Clarrie from getting married on Friday at the stunning Sunnybrae Estate. Not even a serious break in Clarrie's arm, resulting in a huge cast, 2 hours of sleep for Tomo and a release from hospital at just 10:30am the day of the wedding (pending an operation for pinning!) Despite the pain in his arm Clarrie was full of smiles and love on his wedding day. And as Tomo & Clarrie walked back down the aisle after having said I do, he wrapped a comforting arm around her as she shed tears of happiness and relief. So beautiful!
Olivia & Adam's Stunning Adelaide Library Wedding
On Saturday Olivia & Adam tied the knot in the most romantic, fantasy of a room; the Circulating Library at the State Library of SA. Surrounded by beautiful old books and in the most stunning gown with little details handmade by Olivia herself, their ceremony had a beautiful aura of calm and contentment. Outside the weather couldn't be called anything but perfect with a gorgeously warm sun brightening up the afternoon.
Dan & Kel's Gorgeous Glen Ewin Estate Wedding
The weather has been beautifully wild and unpredictable this October, but when rain came on Dan & Kel's wedding day nothing was dampened. The gentle pitter patter as it fell softly on the pond to the right of their ceremony brought such a wonderful ambiance and calm I'd be surprised if anyone walked away goosebump free.
Tim & Fi's McLaren Vale & Beach Sunset Wedding
You know a bride is excited and super content when she hums the song she'll be walking down the aisle to all morning as she prepares for their wedding day. Sunday's beautiful wedding at Seaview Roads McLaren Vale was one of those sweet days with so many special little moments. A last minute venue change ended up being a blessing in disguise as they happily tied the knot with the most gorgeous vineyard views over McLaren Vale. After a yummy lunch reception we finished off the day with a perfect, golden sunset at the beautiful Port Willunga Beach.
Ness & Jamie's Beautiful Adelaide Wedding
On Saturday with the most gorgeously warm weather and the most gorgeously warm family, Ness & Jamie tied the knot at the stunning St John the Baptist Church and Adelaide Botanic Gardens. With so many beautiful little details coming together perfectly and many tears of joy their day was one of those weddings that just felt so amazing to be a part of. I love every opportunity to take photos at the Botanic Gardens. There is always a new secret little place to find and I often get lost in all the amazing portrait options.
Chandice & Toby's Creative DIY Backyard Wedding
It feels like summer already! Isn't it wonderful? Saturday I was blessed to spend my warm afternoon creating memories for the creative & wonderful Chandice & Toby. They had worked so hard to create the most stunning DIY backyard wedding. With the year spent collecting mismatched (but not too mismatched!) vintage plates, silver spoons, lounges, porcelain dachshunds and all manner of gorgeous vintage goodies they so impressively decked out a marquee to create the most stunning setting.
Erin & Jamie's Gorgeous Wedding at Al Ru Farm
Saturday was such a beautiful and perfect day, made even more special by the fact that my beautiful friends Erin & Jamie were tying the knot. After a full year of planning, DIY-ing and piecing every little bit of their wedding together the day was finally here. With perfect weather and the most stunning setting of the gardens at Al Ru Farm - swoon!
Kel & Mark's Perfect Beach Wedding
The weather on Saturday was just so stunning. Gorgeously warm with not one peep from the wind. When I arrived at the Surf Life Saving Club in Henley all of Kel & Mark's family & friends were taking it easy with a drink in hand. From there the day just flowed so perfectly with a relaxed and cheerful vibe. Following the short & sweet ceremony we went for a little walk down an awesome secret graffiti lane and then back along the beach just as the sun started to dip it's way down to the ocean. The light was so stunning and just glowed! Followed by a picture perfect sunset as family & friends celebrated the night away.
Beth & Fabian's Warm & Wonderful Adelaide Wedding
Saturday was warm in more ways than one. The weather was absolutely stunning, but the love between family, friends and the beautiful couple Beth & Fabian was so much warmer. I spent the early part of the day right through to late evening dancing with them, and could not have felt more like part of their big & beautiful family. Beth is a beautiful star and so much fun! And Fabian has the sweetest soul, even putting on the BEST and funniest surprise groom & groomsmen/friend dance I've ever seen! (Can't wait to share some from the reception!)
Emily & Grants Wedding at the Zoo!
Saturday was an absolutely gorgeous day, and my first Spring wedding for 2015. The sun was warm and bright the whole afternoon, creating the perfect weather. Emily & Grant married in a gorgeous little garden hidden away in the Adelaide Zoo. They did things a little bit differently, disguising the day as a special family zoo outing and tour. When their guests arrived for their special "zoo tour" they were led to the secret garden where they found a beautiful surprise!
