Before heading to the reception I have to show you the sweetest flower girl who only began walking two weeks before the wedding. Here, she was probably starting to feel a little weary from all the attention, not to mention all the walking.
And who should this glamourous lady be?
Dressed in shimmering, blue sequins that sparkled in the glorious sunshine was the very beautiful and proud Mother of the bride Marjon.
Not far away, with the most perfect tie to match which he proudly selected himself , was Gerard, Sophie's dashing and very proud Dad.
So off to the Reception being held at the historic site of WA's old brewery which sits alongside our majestic Swan River.
The bouquets were all placed in these vases which looked like they were filled with crystals.
Stunningly beautiful!
Simple table decorations of orchids, twigs and crystals
with this one beckoning a mystery with the tiny pegs
A grand jewellery box to hold the wishes from the wishing tree at the ceremony.
Sophies stunning dress now to be enjoyed up close showcasing the exquisite lace and tuille
Her fishtail and of course perfect figure
Nothing was overstated
Just classically beautiful.
The flowers were all prepared by her very clever and stylish friend and florist Tessa
( I will try to get a link to her facebook page)
Heartfelt speeches were given in front of this amazing view across water to the beautiful city of Perth
Some speeches included clever wit and funny stories to enjoy about the couple.
And finally Lyndon, as he spoke his kind words of thanks and gratefullness and above all his love for Sophie.
Such a lucky girl.
The crowning glory of delicate but stunning cupcakes.
Pale pastels to match the colours of the bouquets
The flowers looked so real but were actually made of sugar
The sweetest tags to describe and identify each cake. Such a fun way to choose and enjoy the mouthwatering cakes.
Even the tea and coffee was colourful yet elegant.
This tree was to eventually fill with with tiny, instant polaroids, taken by the photographers nephew, of all the guests and of course the happy couple!
Then finally the throwing of the bouquet
Caught by a delighted bridesmaid
A most wonderful and perfect wedding showcasing so much love
but also how vintage style can be used in such a glamourous way.
Congatulations Mr and Mrs Hart!
