Ben & Kelly's Adelaide Winter Wedding at Ayers House

Who doesn't love a gorgeous Winter wedding? Especially when that beautiful, low Winter sun is gleaming in-between short showers, and we get to hang out in Stranger Things -esque after dark lighting. Ben & Kelly had a gorgeous Winter Wedding at the classic Ayers House, and it was such a pleasure to be a part of. As always, Ayers House was classically decorated in contemporary ways, loads of gorgeous green plants, a red carpet and that gorgeous glass ceiling. Transformed perfectly into a party space after all the formalities were done. Ben and I used to work together, so it was extra special for me to see him tie the knot with his long term partner.

Kathryn & Ben's Tasmanian Wedding

I had such a great time travelling to Tasmanian to capture my cousin Kathryn and her husband Ben’s wedding. They took advantage of not one, but two churches for their wedding day. Getting married in the beautiful building of Hobart Baptist Church, and hosting their reception in the Citywide Baptist Church, a converted bowling alley and a great large space. Which they, their friends and family spent hours lovingly decorating with rustic and natural touches. Taking portraits at sunset in the beautiful Seven Mile Beach reserve was just the gorgeous icing on the cake. Let me tell you, Tassie has some amazing sunsets and beautiful scenery.

Millie & Michael's Adelaide Wedding

You don’t have to travel far from the heart of Adelaide to have a gorgeous wedding, as Millie & Michael proved by hosting their wedding right in the centre of it. Taking advantage of one of the many beautiful churches in the city of churches, taking portraits at the elegant Botanic Gardens, the footbridge where Michael proposed, and even the streets after dark. Then dancing and celebrating the night away in the grand Adelaide Town Hall. The entire day was beautiful & fancy, and so was the happy couple!

Ali & John's Toowoomba QLD Wedding

Ali and John had a gorgeous wedding in Toowoomba, QLD at Gabbinbar Homestead. And I was thrilled to travel from Adelaide to such a stunning part of the world to capture it. The homestead was lush and green and covered in beautiful festoon and fairy lights. With gardens, a rustic barn and school house being some of the locations many highlights. From start to finish the day was relaxed and full of smiles, dancing in the morning and dancing in the evening. It was a beautiful day, and I was blessed to be a part of it.

Ness & Craig's Ekhidna Wines Wedding in McLaren Vale

Ness and Craig had a romantically rustic wedding with an Australiana feel, so what better location to choose for their wedding than Ekhidna Wines in McLaren Vale? An area of South Australia that I find myself constantly coming back to for it’s gorgeous sprawling landscapes and warm atmosphere. Their ceremony was a huge part of their day, surrounded by all of their friends and family (along with mountains of confetti of course!) The beautiful vibes from that special moment flowing into an evening of celebrations and dancing.

Lucy & Tom's Barn1890 Wedding

Lucy and Tom had a wedding as natural, bright and fresh as the two of them at the gorgeous Barn1890. A lovely and relaxed day full of stand up canapés, neutral colour tones and smiles all around. The band was super cool, providing a fun ambiance, and the intimate ceremony encouraged warm hearts and happy tears to flow. All in all, it was a perfect day!

Arden & Jess' Chilled Wedding at Barn1890

Arden and Jess had a very chilled wedding at the relaxed and rustic wedding venue of Barn1890 (which yes, I most definitely loved working at 2 weekends in a row. xx) From start to finish, the day was casual, relaxed and a lot of fun! There were no seating plans, no rigid schedules, people could sit where they wanted, do what they wanted. We went in with the plan that there may be a dance, or there might not be. Maybe a speech, and maybe not. So even when the beautiful words of a speech and the fun and loving moments of the first dance did in fact happen, it was just because the moment was right for it. The day was just relaxed, fun and authentic in every meaningful way it should have been. <3

Pip & Chris' Wedding in Adelaide City during the Fringe

Pip & Chris had a very cool wedding in the heart of the Adelaide CBD during a very celebratory and gorgeous time, the Fringe Festival. With their ceremony and reception at the Adelaide Museum, and a little journey to explore a buzzing city and the Garden of Unearthly delights for some unique portraits. The whole day was very relaxed. A massive party with lots of food, drink and a raging dance floor. Pops of bright colour, plenty of smiles, and most importantly, a gorgeous wedding ceremony allowing two best friends to marry each other.

Jess & Jaiden's Colourful and Quirky Adelaide Wedding

Jess and Jaiden's wedding couldn't be described as anything other than completely and tastefully whimsical. A beautiful blend of colours, flower crowns and movies that complimented the creative energy of an Adelaide celebrating the Fringe festival and magical theatre. I loved every unique thing about this wedding, and every personal touch which made the whole day feel as warm, welcoming and fun as Jess & Jaiden’s kind and open hearted personalities. There’s so much more I could say about this day, but I’ll let the photos do the talking for me. :)
