Dubbo Wedding | Claire & Daniel

What a wedding! Claire and Dan’s wedding was good for the soul. If I had to choose one word to describe it, I would have to say FUN.

Claire and Dan were married at St Brigid’s in Dubbo. Family, fun and love were the three things that shone through in every aspect of the day. Claire arrived at the church in the Big Red Party Bus, choosing to travel with not just her bride squad (The most amazing bride squad! Loved working with you ladies), but also her family, including her nieces and nephews. “They’re a huge part of our life, why should our wedding day be any different?” The bus was full of laughter and positive vibes. Claire was such a laid back, happy and easy going bride with a smile that truly lit up the room.

Their three children were part of their ceremony and the importance of family was reiterated. Their eldest son stood beside Dan as his best man, and their two younger kids were flower girl and page boy.

Following the ceremony, Claire and Dan stayed at St Brigid's for their photos and to enjoy canapés with their loved ones, before heading into their reception, also at St Brigid’s. Breaking the mould a little, Claire and Dan got straight into the cake cutting and bridal waltz. Then the dance floor was open! And dance they did. It’s not often I see a dance floor so full. Live music kept the crowd entertained, and the kids stole centre stage. Dinner and speeches followed, and then more dancing.

Claire soon changed into her party dress, showing off her amazing hot pink rollies. Did I mention this wedding was fun?

Tara and her team at Taylormade Weddings and Events did an amazing job with the flowers, decorations, and coordination of the whole day.

I truly loved every moment. Congratulations Claire and Dan. Thanks for having us as part of your day x

Outback Cellar Dubbo Wedding | Ben & Kirsty

What a way to “start” the year! Kirsty and Ben’s wedding was a special one for us - our first wedding as a family of four. And nothing excites me more than a country wedding and fairy lights! It was great to be back doing what we love!

Ben and Kirsty’s wedding was such a beautiful day! One of those days that make me feel so lucky that I get to call this “work.” Huge shoutout to the amazing dream team of vendors that made this wedding what it was. The whole day was at the INCREDIBLE Outback Cellar in Dubbo, one of my favourite venues!

Kirsty looked stunning in her gown from Belles and Beaux Bridal and was walked down the aisle by her two eldest sons, carrying her Dad with her on a charm attached to her gorgeous bouquet. Their ceremony was full of laughs and tears.

Then it was time for photos, and all I can say is hello, dream light! We captured some truly breathtaking images down by the river. The bridal party, comprised of friends and Kirsty and Ben’s kids, were superstars. Their best man, Brad, is one of our former grooms - where has that 6 years gone?!

Their reception was a gorgeous night under the stars, with twinkle lights and perfect weather. The meal from Salads and Sides was absolutely mouthwatering! (Yes, Chris definitely went back for more). I couldn’t believe this catering team from Sydney turned out to be none other than my former high school Deputy Principal and his lovely wife, Sharyn. I highly recommend these guys!

Finally the dance floor opened and there was even some surprise fireworks!

Ben and Kirsty, thank you for being so amazing and for choosing us to capture your best day ever! You waited so long for this day and it couldn’t have been more perfect. We loved every minute of it.

Dubbo Golf Club Wedding | Emma & Luke

This could not have been a more perfect wedding day.  Emma was possibly the most relaxed, down-to-earth bride I have ever come across, a true blue country girl. When she and Luke saw each other, you could truly see the sparks fly.  They were so relaxed and easy going in front of the camera that it really let their love shine.  

They were married at Dubbo Golf Club.  Their ceremony and reception was beautifully set by event designer, Tara Taylor of Taylormade Weddings & Events and every detail was impeccable.  

Emma and Luke's day was so personal and full of love, with Emma being attended to by her brothers and Luke by his brothers and Dad. After the ceremony, Emma & Luke jumped in their ute for a quick trip out to their cattle, who of course had to feature in their photos. And not to forget, their fur baby too. Cowboy boots, cows, a dog, gorgeous afternoon sun and perfect weather - heaven!

Lazy River Estate Wedding | Lauren & Brenton

Lauren & Brenton's wedding was a special one for us - our first wedding back after the birth of our son. And to make it more special, it was at the spectacular Lazy River Estate, where we ourselves were married. 

The love and respect that Lauren and Brenton have for each other just radiated from them all day. Any nerves Lauren may have had in the morning vanished the moment she laid eyes on Brenton. Throughout the day, they were just so happy to be in the moment together and soak up their first day of being a married couple.

Back at the reception, everyone let their hair down and much fun was had. The decorations were stunning, and the catering by Lazy River was heavenly.

Dubbo Secret Garden Cafe Wedding | Kate & Chris

I have known Kate since I was in school, so it was truly special to be asked to capture her special day. 

Kate was so excited to be marrying the man of her dreams. Being a hairdresser, Kate has been involved in countless weddings, so she had every detail perfect. With Danielle from Danielle Pearce-Artistry there to do the makeup, it was a real 'Narromine girls' event. Danielle did an absolutely stunning job, as always. 

Kate and Chris married in a garden ceremony at the Secret Garden Cafe in Dubbo, with their kids playing a special part in their day. There was so much love in the air as they finally tied the knot, with family and friends watching on. Chris's reaction when he saw Kate for the first time that day moved everyone there, including us. It was a truly beautiful wedding.
