Rosie and Tim. Sails on the Bay and St Catharine’s Anglican Church

Rosie and Tim live in Orange but decided to have their wedding in Melbourne, in the very church that Rosie’s grandmother was married. It was lovely to see the family gather together, including Rosie’s very proud grandmother, in a church steeped in family tradition.

From the time of their arrival in Melbourne there was a lot of running around for Tim, Rosie and the family to do to finalise all of the last-minute details, but everyone agreed that the end result was well worth the effort! The girls spent the morning of the big day getting ready in an apartment overlooking Albert Park and the City, with sun streaming in through the big windows. Rosie even made time to put her feet up with a glass of champagne!

As a result of a few busy days leading up to the wedding, Rosie said that she felt as though she had hardly seen Tim leading up to their big day! It must have been very special to see him waiting as she walked down the aisle. Rosie also mentioned that it was lovely to share some quick but private moments throughout the day, as she had really missed him in the rush leading up to the wedding.

It was lovely to wander along the beach around Brighton and Elwood with Rosie and Tim, photographing them while we all enjoyed the divine weather. Rosie was the happiest bride you’ve ever seen; always laughing, smiling and radiating pure joy.

We ended the day at Sails on the Bay, where everyone enjoyed their meals overlooking the beach as the sun set on a beautiful and perfect day.
