During Paul & Rosa’s engagement session, where we hiked down to, along and back up from the Onkaparinga Gorge on a whim with Rosa in nothing but wedge heels I knew these two were something special. Their wedding day was relaxed, joyful and fun! A celebration with their loved ones, lots of good food, dancing and some fun traditions like the Finnish stealing of the bride! As always, I’ll let the photos do the talking.

Mahalia & Chris had a wedding with a casual vibe allowing them to relax and be themselves with all of their guests. Mahalia had two stunning dresses and the decor of the barn was perfectly gorgeous. We were SO excited that dancing became legal at SA weddings again that very day, and the dance floor was well made use of! It was a beautiful day of smiles, sunshine, laughter and love.

Laura and Jake wanted to keep their special day casual and easy going (and of course beautiful too!) It was all about marrying their best friend and celebrating with their closest loved ones. They kept their styling classic and timeless, which fit well with the beautiful surrounds of Chateau Yaldara. Sharing a first look so they could get straight into the reception after family portraits and make the most of their day. Which included a beautifully choreographed first dance, fun shoe games, hearfelt speeches and the bouquet toss.

If there was such a thing as a perfect wedding day, I’d say that Bec and Nathan nailed it. It was beautiful, relaxed, intimate, full of laughter and good food - and everything felt easy and fun. Bec and Nathan got married together with their two children before strolling down the lawn to celebrate and commit to their life together surrounded by loved ones under a beautifully decorated arbor and tall gum trees.

There were record breaking outback rains on Melissa and Ash’s wedding day, but they didn’t let that dampen their special day! With colours of purple and gold they got married in what felt like a big family reuinion. Being 6th generation it was special for Melissa to get married at the Laura Catholic Church, where her family name is remembered in one of the stained glass windows. After a brief dash through the rain they celebrated their reception at the Laura Civic Centre. Sneaking out one last time for photos as the rain eased up in the evening.

Bec & Johnny has an intimate, happy and relaxed wedding at Burbrook Forest beneath that gorgeous iconic tree. Surrounded by just the nearest and dearest, with delicious platters and donuts to follow. Their day was full of smiles and laughs, and Bec looked stunning in the gorgeous dress made by her mum! We took photos around the beautiful Kuitpo as well as a short little drive to the rolling hills near Willunga.

Steph and Ben had an intimate and traditional little wedding in Glenelg at the St Peter’s Anglican Church. A gorgeous day full of fun and personal touches, like a flower crown for their furry friend Rommy and fun balloons with messages like “you only get married twice”! After a traditional ceremony and afternoon tea at the Church we headed back to Steph’s family home for a few more special family traditions. Before finishing up with some gorgeous sunset portraits nearby. It was such a special day!

Childhood sweethearts Niamh & Nick had a nice and laidback wedding with a fresh garden and vintage feel at the gorgeous Carrick Hill. A place Niamh visited when she was younger. As a girl it was a fairy tale experience exploring the story book trail with fairy costumes. This time round was no less of a fairy tale. They spent the day celebrating with their friends and family, both in person and over the distant seas through video chat. Arriving in some very cool cars and enjoying the gorgeous gardens and view, along with the amazing service from the staff at Carrick Hill, dishing up delicious meals. I’ve also never seen so many people get up and dance the nutbush, what a dance floor!

Megan and Luke had a surprise wedding at their engagement party on Saturday - a perfectly warm and sunny day by the beach. The room was styled so beautifully, with soft pink tones and florals. A sign greeting guests on arrival to let them know the good news! Surprise! They married on the narrow balcony overlooking the water shortly after all the guests had arrived. As the sun set we took relaxed & natural portraits with our feet in the sand. Before spending the rest of the night celebrating and dancing!

Bec and Angas married with a very intimate group in an elopement style at a gorgeous little McLaren Vale B&B. Celebrating their marriage and enjoying the day for what it was truly about. I spent some time with Bec as she got ready, and Angas while he decorated the arbor. Before a special first look and photos around the grounds. You’d never guess from the beauty for the scenery how many cow poos we had to dodge, hehe. Thank you so much for sharing this special day with me guys!
