WHAT MADE OUR DAY UNIQUE

"It was in my parents garden- which had always been my dream! This gave us the freedom to really create our dream wedding and put our stamp on things. We gave Rachael from Sweet Peony pretty much free rein over the flowers- she knew where we wanted them but she did everything else and we couldn't have been happier! Our best friend taking the ceremony and us saying our own vows topped it off. Wayne and I did a joint speech- it meant a lot to me as I wanted to be part of thanking everyone for helping us and being there to celebrate with us." - Rachel & Wayne

 

Sleeveless Wedding Dress

Bridal Lane Usk supplied this high neck sleeveless wedding dress by Adrianna Papell, which teamed beautifully with the bride's boho up-do and flower hair decorations. The bridesmaids wore gorgeous grey dresses from Watters and had hoop bouquets by Sweet Peony, all these touches come together to complete this dreamy summer wedding.

 

INSPIRATION & STYLING

"Our vibe was ‘us’ - everything we chose or made was something we loved and knew our guests would too. We had free reign to create this dream wedding where there were no compromises. We wanted something relaxed and personal- I love the boho vibe so made lots of dreamcatchers and had wooden details everywhere. Wayne made structures like a large light-up triangle- we'd seen it on a tv show and I mentioned how good it would look at our wedding- next thing I know, wood, copper piping and light bulbs arrived and he got to work! " - Rachel & Wayne
