Pastel Flowers and a Ribbon Archway

The slight breeze made all of the pastel ribbons, that were perfectly matched to the bouquets and bridesmaids dresses, flutter underneath the stunning, handmade archway! Racheal and Mitch's wedding was just divine to photograph! Racheal had thought of everything, right down to the tiniest detail!

Merindah and I arrived at Peppers Convent just after lunch to photograph the bride and groom getting ready. The boys in one end of the Convent, the girls in the other. As per almost every wedding, the boys were so chilled out, while hair, makeup and lots of prep was happening in the girls room. While I photographed all the stunning little details in the girls room, and that oh so beautiful mirror, Merindah hung out at the pool with the boys.

The ceremony was held under the trees at Robert's Restaurant, under a beautiful handmade archway! And the light was just perfect coming through the trees behind them. After the ceremony and family photos, we wandered around the grounds of Roberts for some photos and then headed off to the Convent for a few more. Just as the sun was getting to that deliciously low point in the sky, we made our way off to one of my favourite paddocks in Pokolbin for a few sunset photos.

The reception was held back at Roberts restaurant, with long tables stretching the length of the venue, covered with beautiful pastel peonies and roses. To my absolute delight (and my taste buds didn't mind a bit either!), there were three wedding cakes! All different flavours! Racheal and Mitch's first dance was just lovely with some awesome country music that made me bop along and join in the fun while I was shooting.

You both have impeccable taste and should seriously consider a career in designing things for weddings as everything was just so beautiful and picturesque! Thank you for letting me share your day with and join in all the fun!
