By Sally Hughes, Melbourne Marriage Celebrant

What do you get when you combine two gorgeous, accomplished and utterly joyful people, a glamorous bride tribe, dapper and downright hilarious groomsmen, an elegant garden setting, a wise and oh-so-witty zia and some seriously A-grade vendors? One of the most elegant and exuberant ceremonies ever.

The impeccably dressed and contagiously happy Zoe and Dan were married in the Italian Garden at Coombe Yarra Valley. With superb styling by Tori Allen Events and music by the fabulous Logan Entertainment their sentimental, yet laughter-filled ceremony looked and sounded amazing. And it was once again so wonderful to team up with some of my very favourite creatives; photographer Katie Harmsworth and videographers Annette + Dani Films.

Zoe and Dan, thanks so much for the many, many laughs and for sharing these images of your utterly beautiful day.

(Laughing before we officially begin. Love that!)

(Still laughing….)

(Until Aunty Betty’s story brings Zoe to tears.)

(How’s that for perfect dress and wedding party placement? I’m ALWAYS on top of this!)

(Thanks for laughing at every. single. joke. Dan!)

Love Note…

Sally is simply the best! She created the most warm and engaging atmosphere during our ceremony which was the highlight of our day. She thinks of everything and manages all aspects of the ceremony from start to finish masterfully, not to mention what a joy she is to work with in the lead up to the big day. Thank you Sally!

Zoe + Dan
