Throw back to Dec. last year when my amazing lash lady Lauren wed her handsome man Josh 😍

I'm not sure what cool, calm & cheeky Josh said during the ring exchange but it certainly gave Lauren & I a good belly laugh 🤣🤣

Surrounded by a small gathering of family & friends with their 2 gorgeous little girls by their side, these two said "I do" at the rustic Wyanga Park Winery in Lakes Entrance.

A simple, intimate ceremony for a lovely local couple 🥰

Thanks Jude & Jarrod!

As a celebrant it's an absolute joy to officiate for two of my fave humans, because I've already seen behind the scenes and watched these amazing people that I adore, navigate through the ebbs & flows of life.

I've watched as they've supported each other through the highs and the lows of life, deepening their connection & growing and evolving as a couple, so I know beyond a shadow of a doubt, that this is an everlasting love 🥰 and I'm so proud and honoured to have been able to formalise their commitment to one another.

Have a fabalicious life together my friends, I hope you don't mind me coming along for the ride, considering I've adopted you as my family and stuff 😁

SARAH & MICHAEL 23/11/24

This lovely couple travelled all the way from Canberra to seal the deal and make their union official at the beautiful Eight Acres Lakes Entrance.

It was a scorcher of a day with the thermometer topping 37 degrees, so we were extremely grateful for the towering gums providing shade throughout the ceremony.

Big thanks to Adele at Ella del wedding and events for coordinating EVERYTHING on the day, you're such a gem.

Wishing Sarah, Michael and baby Abigail a wonderful life together ❤️
