🤍🖤 JORDY & HARLEY 31.01.25 🖤 🤍

What do you get when you have the amazing grounds of teenage sweethearts, their nearest and dearest, and the goodest doggo of them all - along with an A-team of vendors and a classic Tamworth summer day?
The outdoor wedding dreams are made of!

A relaxed and joyful ceremony in front of the lake was followed by canapes and cocktails on the lawn, as the newlyweds slipped away for photos. As night began to fall, the festoon lights came on and the celebrations kicked into high gear, dancing the night away under the stars - proof that when you’ve got the right place, the right people, and a whole lot of love, outdoor wedding dreams really do come true.

🥂Here's to the 2 of you, and Odie 🐾 Nearly 1 year on, here's to many building projects to complete, adventures to be had, and kicking goals each and every day and always being each others sun 🤍

Just a couple of things I loved from their day:

🤍 Jordy's dress and the "veil" like pieces that attached at the shoulders - so pretty and unique

🖤 They both wrote their own vows, they were beautiful

🤍 No surprises here lol - their gorgeous Odie in the ceremony as the ring bearer and he got to stick around for most of the day

🖤 They had their welcome sign do double duty, on the back they had their seating plan, and we also moved the ceremony flowers up to the reception to add even more colour to that space

Steph's family property was the perfect backdrop for the perfect day - Under the trees, with the hills and paddocks surrounding them looking its best. Steph and Scott were married surrounded by their favourite people. You couldn't have asked for a better day

There were big laughs, and a few happy tears. After the ceremony, they made sure to include their furbabies in their photos, before jumping on their horses and riding off into the sunset, and to their beautiful to the marquee reception.

The evening brought good food, cold drinks, a hot dance floor and they partied till the cow's came home

🥂Here's to the 2 of you, to a life full of adventures and loads of furbabies and always remembering life’s not always perfect but it’s always beautiful when you share it with someone you love 🧡

🤍 💛 HANNAH & GERALD 18.01.25 💛🤍

The rain tried to dampen Hannah & Gerald's wedding day, but instead gifted them something beautiful. Tucked inside the gorgeous Jackson Centre surrounded by the warm textures, pops of colour, the twinkle of fairy lights and the chandelier, it soon stopped feeling like a backup plan and started feeling quietly perfect.

After the ceremony, the sun finally made an appearance, giving them the chance to wander the grounds of Saumarez for some beautiful portraits, before heading off to , kicking off a laid-back reception with a firetruck arrival and a piping-in that paid tribute to their Scottish heritage.

Pizza from , an epic grazing table, a stacked dessert table including .patisserie delights and a cake made by Gerald's brother - heartfelt speeches set the tone for the night.

Then Mother Nature really showed off, with an epic sunset for some kick-ass portraits by before the dancefloor and the party well and truly got cranking.

🥂Here's to the 2 of you (and the furbabies!) to a life full of trails, animals, fresh air, and choosing each other every step of the way 🤍

Just a couple of things I loved from their day:

🤍 They decided to do Ninja Vows - which is where each partner writes some promises for the other to read during the ceremony - they are a complete surprise - lots of fun

💛 They didn't let the rain dampen their day - Hannah had several pairs of gumboots on hand just so there was no worries about getting around to get photos

🤍 They took their group photo at the reception rather than straight after the ceremony

🖤💚 KRYSTA & LUKE 07.12.24🖤💚

The stunning grounds of were the perfect backdrop for Krysta & Luke's beautiful wedding day.

They chose to start the day together by starting to get together before heading out to the lawns for a first look , giving themselves a chance to slow things down and be together before the day really got going.

They also used that opportunity to do some of the portraits before the ceremony and meant they had more time to spend with their guests post ceremony

After the ceremony they headed over the cellar door to enjoy drinks and nibbles and also an opportunity to get more relaxed group photos

Dinner in the candlelit marquee was followed by speeches, lots of laughs, a photobooth and a packed dance floor that kept the celebrations long after the sun had set

🥂 Here's to the two of you (and Pickles!) always remember that your love is your superpower, stronger than the toughest vibranium and just as unbreakable, to a life of good food, great wine and epic adventures

Just a few things I loved from their day:

🖤Having some of the portraits after the first look, gave more time after the ceremony

💚At the beginning of the ceremony we had a paparazzi moment, so guests could snap some pictures before unplugging and enjoying the ceremony - It was a fun moment before the ceremony proper started , and some of the photos are epic

🖤They had a couple of speeches during their cocktail hour, which meant more time on the dancefloor

💚 They wrote each other a letter which were put into a box with a bottle of Peterson's Wine, to be opened and enjoyed on their first anniversary

🖤 Their cake topper was a Polaroid photo they had snapped of them on the day - what a great idea!

💚🤍 JESS & KURT 07.12.24 🤍 💚

You couldn't have asked for a more perfect day - on the edge of Copeton Dam, Jess and Kurt celebrated their marriage surrounded by all their favourite people in a relaxed ceremony that was full of laughs, a few tears, and plenty of love

One of the sweetest moments was watching their little boy walk down the aisle, with his cousins, just before Jess made her entrance, a quiet reminder of what this day was really about

The reception was held at the nearby bunkhouse, with guests enjoying nibbles and drinks as the sunset on a spectacular day, and then they took the heat of the day to the dance floor and the celebrations kicked on til the early hours

🥂 Here's to you and your gorgeous little family, to a future filled with adventures, love and laughter, knowing no matter what you are faced with together you’ll figure it out

Just some of the things I loved from their day:

💚 All the DIY touches, both from the Jess and Kurt and also from their family and friends, including the gorgeous flowers and Cake, and some of the food

🤍 We surprised their Mum's as the witnesses, it was so special

💚 They used their "wedding sign" as a guest book, that way they could hang it in their home and see all their well wishes on a regular basis

🤍 Many guests stayed at the park the night before/of the wedding which was a great way to extend the celebrations

🤍🤎 Alana & Mitch 23.11.24 🤎🤍

Alana and Mitch wanted a chilled and relaxed wedding and that's exactly what unfolded for their beautiful day. Starting out with a first look - a private moment for the two of them before the ceremony, they were married in the gorgeous hidden garden.

Post ceremony guests wandered out to the paddock for cocktails and delicious canapes from (if you ever get the chance to try the prawn taco bites - do it - trust me they are delicious!!)

As night fell they made their way to the open barn and the celebrations continued long into the night. The whole day felt easy, full of warmth and laughter - just right for them

🥂Here's to the 2 of you (and the boys!) King and Queen of each others hearts, to a life time of riding together, loving each and being legit besties for ever! 🤍

Just a couple of things I loved from their day:

🤍 Even though their fur babies couldn't be at the ceremony, they still included the boys in the getting ready - how cute is the pick from@content_creativebyclaire and also included them in the reception with the Bar Menu's being named after them

🤎 At the end of the ceremony - just as they were announced to their guests as the new Mr & Mrs, Mitch set off the confetti cannon back towards the crowd - it was pretty cool!

🤍 The way their day flowed from one space to the next, each providing a different backdrop to the moment, but all coming together perfectly

🤍🧡 NICOLE & DANIEL 09.11.24 🧡🤍

Their Wedding Era - at the hidden jem that is just outside Inverell, on the top of the aptly named Hill of Dreams, on a perfect summer day - Nicole and Daniel started the next chapter of their love story, in a ceremony filled with love and even messages from their furbabies who stayed home they said Yes to forever with each other.

On this amazing day, I had the joy of going where they went, from ceremony to reception, as celebrant and coordinator, and after the ceremony we headed back down the hill to the cellar door where they had an array of lawn games and their very own cocktail station, after the fun and games we headed into the reception where their first dance stole the show, before the dancefloor went off!! What an awesome day it was!

🥂 Long live the love you share - may your days be golden, your table always full, your home full of cats, and your wine always excellent. 🤍

Just a couple of things I loved from their day:

🤍 Nicole (and now Daniel) is a massive Taylor Swift fan and she incorporated that throughout their day, from the friendship bracelets, to the naming of the cocktails, to the table numbers being T Swift Albums, it was so effective

🧡 After the ceremony they had their own mixologist creating their signature cocktails whilst guests enjoyed canapes and a huge variety of lawn games

🤍 After the wedding party had finished their portraits they took time to go and hang out inside, to enjoy some cocktails and food and take a minute to relax before the reception started

After the I Do's they slipped away with the amazing to capture these gorgeous portraits whilst guests enjoyed cocktail hour in the garden.

❤️🤍 MJ & LUKE 4.10.24 🤍❤️

Family and friends traveled from near and far, including overseas to witness MJ & Luke becoming Husband and Wife. It was a glorious day with the sun shining down as they said their vows in a heartfelt and relaxed ceremony.
