The Sunshine Coast turned on absolutely perfect weather for Julie and Simon's gorgeous wedding day.
Simon and his groomsmen got ready at The Sebel in Maroochydore. The views were breathtaking. The boys were loads of fun. Simon is one very awesome human. Kindness exudes constantly from him through his ever-ready smile.
Julie and her bridesmaids, flower girls and page boy preened themselves at the beautiful rustic Arabella Guesthouse on Buderim. Julie and one half of our photographer duo Jesse, attended senior high school in Nambour together. Julie is still a laugh a minute. She is always laughing, always vibrant and one of the most delightful souls you could hope to meet.
All of the bride and groom's family and friends gathered at AnnaBella Wedding Chapel in Ilkley to watch them wed and make their vows to love, honour and obey each other before God, forever. Simon's reactions and emotions throughout the ceremony were so wonderfully candid and honest and so refreshing to see in a groom. Julie was a picture of absolute class and so ready at all times for a good laugh, which comes so naturally to her.
After the heartfelt ceremony the bride, groom and their bridal party took a walk with us around the lush semi-tropical grounds of AnnaBella Wedding Chapel (this is one of the most STUNNING venues to get married in on the Sunshine Coast or in Brisbane). This group of guys and gals were such a great reflection of the bride and groom - big hearts and always ready to laugh!
Julie and Simon's wedding reception was hosted by Harry's Restaurant on Buderim. The food was DIVINE. There is a reason why Harry's is one of the most loved restaurants on the Sunshine Coast - WOW. There is rustic charm around every corner at Harry's and with no other buildings or houses within a couple hundred metres of it, this is the epitome of privacy and exclusivity to top off your wedding day. The groom, best man, maid of honour and father-of-the-bride speeches were some of the best we've witnessed - full of belly laughs! The bride and groom clearly had the time of their lives.
We look forward to seeing what adventures Julie and Simon find themselves on in this exciting new chapter of their lives.
Big Love special ones X
Jesse & Mikala
