This beautiful Adelaide garden wedding is courtesy of South Australian based EON IMAGES. Wanting a relaxed atmosphere where their guests didn’t have to travel between locations the private estate offered Cass & Tk some gorgeous gardens for the ceremony and photos, as well as a converted barn for the reception where they could set up long tables for their guests to celebrate over a family style dinner. The wedding was a true blending of cultures with Tk’s family performing traditional dances at the reception to entertain everyone.
TELL US ABOUT YOUR PROPOSAL: Tk proposed while we were repeating our first date we had trying to get to know each other. I had a inkling that this was going to happen but I had checked all his pockets with a quick pat down but little did I know his jacket had a secret pocket.
TELL US ABOUT FINDING YOUR WEDDING DRESS: I was so nervous about finding a wedding dress as I left it to the six month stage and many people were starting to judge this as not enough time. It took me three weeks looking in every dress shop I knew before I found a dress for my engagement party, the idea of trying to find the ‘it’ dress had got me worried. I decided one weekend to just have a look in a few wedding dress shops in my area and it was only the second shop I needed to enter before I really did find the ‘it’ dress. Before trying it on I knew that it would be the dress, it had my personality all over it. I wasn’t expecting to find a full dress and had stayed clear of them in the previous store but when I set my eyes on the skirt I knew that it would be the dress for the day.
DESCRIBE YOUR WEDDINGS FLOWERS: Growing up everything in the house was lavender scented and to me that was such a personal decision to make that I would never change. Lavender to me brings memories of my childhood and the time I spent with mum. Lavender is such a calming flower and I think everyone could say the wedding had a calm and comfortable mood.
FAVOURITE DETAILS OF THE DAY: Due to our budget we didn’t think having special cars was necessary and had planned to just make the trip to the ceremony using my parent’s cars. Before we left my dad had one last surprise to show me. He organised a beautiful white Chevy for my sister, himself and I to ride together. This small detail was my favourite as it was one of the few things that I hadn’t planned and it totally surprised me.
MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT: The most memorable moment during our day was when Tk’s family decided they would give a performance and do their traditional dance in front of all our family and friends. Seeing Tk and his mum dance together was such an amazing sight and made me excited to be introduced to this new culture and all the experiences they bring to our life.
