Weddings are beautiful. There is no doubt about that. Seriously. I love them. There is nothing sweeter than witnessing two people joining forces for good. It was especially so for this great couple.
I have known and loved Jo and Dan for over a decade, and I have to say…. watching them get married made me smile giant smiles. These guys rock. Seriously. Love them. Collectively (and individually even), they have pretty much every excellent quality known to the human race – they are fun, friendly, hilarious, smart, cool, classy, good looking and all the while they have the ability to bag the absolute crap out of themselves. Their bridal party share in these excellent qualities, and it was so fun to be around and photograph old friends for a day.
Their wedding was sublime. Every detail was perfect. As much as I rack my brain I can’t think of anything that did not run smoothly or look beautiful. Jo looked absolutely divine, her dress, her bouquets, her bridesmaids…. all totally stunning. Dan and his man-crew were spunky, cruisy and funny. The venue was awesome, the guests were having an absolute blast (and it was great to see more old friends amongst them).
The ceremony was held at the beautiful St Stanislaus College Chapel and Father James was his usual brilliant self. This was followed by after-ceremony shots at the beautiful village of Millthorpe (one of my favourite places in the world to shoot). I love this place for its character and charm – I could live there in an instant. The reception was held at the fabulous Tonic Restaurant (in the recently converted old movie theatre next door). This new function room has a great courtyard, and the room just lent itself to socialising. I swear, none of the guests were sitting down – everyone was up, about and chatting.
Dan and Jo, thanks for having me around on your wedding day. The love and respect you guys have for one another is unreal, and I am so glad you found each other all those years ago. Your wedding images are all finished now, and I will have them to you when you get back from your worldly honeymoon.
