Sarah & Jean Paul: An Intimate Sunday Wedding at Recoleta
Most couples default to a Saturday without ever really asking why. Sarah and Jean Paul didn't. They chose a Sunday afternoon, and it changed the entire mood of the day. There was no rush to beat traffic to a reception, no sense of a wedding wedged between other people's plans. Guests arrived relaxed, already halfway into weekend mode, and stayed relaxed. The light through Recoleta's upstairs windows had that soft, low, end-of-weekend quality that no amount of styling can fake.
As a Celebrant and MC I've married a lot of couples that felt like they were racing the clock. This one didn't race anything.
Phuong & David's Siglo & Fitzroy Gardens Wedding, Melbourne.
It’s safe to say that Phuong and David knew exactly what they were doing when they planned their wedding. They hired vendors - inlcuding the always admired but never replicated Jackson Grant - that they instantly connected with and trusted, designed the day for maximum guest fun, and then served looks that blended fashion with fabulous comfort. No wonder their wedding was featured in Fashion Journal….
Shenay and Joe’s beautiful Recoleta Wedding, Melbourne CBD.
Shenay and Joe took a slightly different approach to the traditional wedding day structure, and it worked beautifully. Just 31 guests joined them for the ceremony and lunch, keeping things close, personal, and warm. Then, later in the day, they opened the doors at Higher Ground for a post-wedding celebration - a cocktail party for 160 guests who came to toast the newlyweds in style.
