Hi all, I just wanted to start this one off by saying how appreciative I am being able to attend this wedding down in Newcastle. As previously…almost a year ago now, we got the privilege of working with Sila & Sarah on their big day, so we were extremely excited to catch up with the couple to see how everything was going along. But first we had a new Bride and Groom to be excited for, Sila's cousin Weinmmannia & his soon to be bride Talia were getting married at the beautiful Crowne Plaza Newcastle having their reception at the magical Fort Scratchley.
When we had arrived at the girl’s house, Talia was attending to her 2 beautiful children Cherish & Eddie while the girls took turns getting their hair and make up done. We got straight into setting up the dress, shoes & accessories, having 2 hours for getting ready shots was amazing for us. We love being able to take the time to get things as perfect as we can, priding ourselves in the quality of the work we do & provide to all of our couples. The girls had a great time having a few drinks whilst getting their hair & make up done all morning, fussing over the beautiful bride & dancing around the living room with the 2 beautiful children.
The 5 bride’s maids wearing soft purple dresses, Talia with a gorgeous flower crown in her hair to match the bridesmaid dresses. The weather today was just perfect! A beautiful sunny day, it couldn’t get any better for this beautiful wedding.
Mannia & the boy’s preparation went smoothly as well, jumping in the stretched hummer limo they began their journey to the ceremony. Mania celebrated & commemorated his family by wearing badges on his shirt of the people that have passed to keep them close by.
The ceremony was great to be apart of with a great balance of fun moments as well as a few emotional. The location was a great spot for wedding photography & video, the crew and I enjoyed the scenery a lot! especially on such a beautiful day it doesn’t get much better than this.
The beautiful wedding photos on top of the hill which made the dress blow out and looked amazing! This being where he first asked her out, looking over the ocean this was a very special moment in time for the both of them.
Moving onto the reception after entry we noticed a beautiful sunset outside so we quickly snuck them away for a short while to get a little bit more footage & some effortlessly gorgeous photos.
At the reception the 5-layer cake as well as separate cakes for the people that had to get them by tradition the preast, both families of the bride & groom. The night was filled with fun on the dance floor, these guys really new how to party this made for some great atmosphere.
Thanks for taking the time to have a read.
