On April 23, 2016, Michael and Olivia celebrated their wedding, a day full of love, joy, and unforgettable moments at the stunning Sheraton Grand Mirage on the Gold Coast. Over the years, their bond has only grown stronger, and they’ve extended their family with two beautiful daughters—Addisyn, 5, and Montanna, 1. These two little girls have brought endless love and laughter into their home, filling their lives with even more happiness.
For their wedding, Michael and Olivia chose Jadore Weddings' photo and video combo package, allowing us to seamlessly capture every special moment from start to finish. By having one company handle both photography and videography, we were able to work in perfect harmony, ensuring every cherished memory of their big day was beautifully preserved.
The day began with preparations at two different holiday houses on Chevron Island, which, coincidentally, is now home to the Jadore Weddings office!
Michael’s getting-ready location was filled with the sound of laughter and excitement, and his beaming smile said it all. Olivia, on the other hand, was filled with excitement, counting down the days on Facebook, and when we arrived, we could feel her joy. Her bridesmaids, dressed in stunning deep navy gowns, added to the elegance of the morning, while their bouquets, designed by Tyree from Ufloria, featured gorgeous shades of purple that perfectly complemented the theme.
One of the highlights of the day was Olivia’s arrival at the ceremony in a classic car that added a touch of timeless beauty and sophistication. Her entrance was nothing short of spectacular, perfectly matching the grandeur of the day.
The ceremony itself took place at the Sheraton Grand Mirage, the only 5-star resort in Main Beach with direct access to the beachfront. The venue’s outdoor setting was enhanced by its beautiful wooden walkways, leading to the Lagoon section where the ceremony was held. White flowers were elegantly centered down the aisle, and draped curtains framed the moment Michael and Olivia exchanged their vows. The love they share was on full display, and it was clear to everyone in attendance how deeply they are connected.
One of the unique aspects of Jadore Weddings is that we offer both photography and videography, allowing us to capture every special moment without missing a beat. Our team worked seamlessly, ensuring that nothing went unnoticed and that the day unfolded effortlessly for the couple. After the ceremony, we took Michael and Olivia to Main Beach, where they had direct access from their venue. The easy access allowed us to capture stunning shots of the couple walking down the dunes, the wind softly blowing, as they made their way toward the ocean. The sky lit up at the perfect moment, and our photographers captured some truly magical shots that we knew would be perfect for their wedding album.
As the day moved into the reception, the Sheraton Grand Mirage once again provided a breathtaking setting. Instead of glass seating arrangements, the room was adorned with a stunning four-layered cake, decorated with a blue satin ribbon to match the wedding theme. Embossed with intricate details, this cake remains one of the most beautiful designs we’ve seen to date.
The evening was filled with heartfelt speeches, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Olivia’s sister delivered a touching speech, with Michael lovingly standing by her side, and the room was filled with joy and emotion. From start to finish, everything ran smoothly, with countless amazing moments shared by all. The day truly reflected the love Michael and Olivia have for each other, and it was felt by everyone lucky enough to be there.
It’s hard to believe that eight years have already passed since Michael and Olivia’s stunning wedding day. Their love has continued to flourish and deepen, truly exemplifying the strength of their bond. With the joy and laughter brought by their two beautiful daughters, Addisyn and Montanna, their journey together has become even more enriching and meaningful.
The wedding video we captured that day holds a special place in our hearts, serving as a timeless reflection of their devotion to each other. It beautifully encapsulates the raw emotions, joyous moments, and heartfelt connections that made their day so memorable.
While we look back fondly on this cherished video, it’s remarkable to see how much we’ve evolved as a company since then. Our skills and techniques have advanced significantly over the years, allowing us to create videos that capture love stories in even more dynamic and creative ways.
Ultimately, Michael and Olivia’s wedding video remains a poignant reminder of their beautiful love story and the incredible memories we were privileged to document. Their journey continues to inspire us, and we are thrilled to celebrate the enduring love that they share, which has only grown stronger over the years.
It was a true honour to be part of such a memorable day, and we wish Michael, Olivia, Addisyn, and Montanna all the happiness in the years ahead!
