Dashing through the bush, In a rusty Holden Ute, Kicking up the dust, Esky in the boot 🎄 literally 😝 🔔 🍸 🎄
We did try a confetti shot with just me but it was a little odd, so threw in this kid to capture the real Christmas spirit 🎅🎄.
2022 where to start - it obviously rained a lot, so shout out to every bride who remained calm, even as roads were closed and access was looking sketchy. It somehow always panned out, perhaps a little wetter than we all envisioned but gosh the misty mountains in your photos look pretty.
Like most hospitality businesses the struggle was . We borrowed staff for bigger events and in return we helped out other hospo businesses with events if we weren’t busy. We somehow made it through to August before we found more staff. Maddi and Trav did the bulk of the closing shifts this year (thanks guys). And we are happy to be walking out of 2022 with a team of 10.
To our experience clients, Thankyou for trusting us to create space for you and the event you imagined, it brought us so much joy to see how happy you were on your special day - Trusting someone with your day is hard and I acknowledge that as I don’t run around with a note pad and excel spreadsheet or stress over stuff other people tell you that you should be stressed by and I pretty much just tell you “it’s fine” that it is a little daunting. (On that note 📝 y’all feel free to drop us a google review over summer 🫣🤪) .
Last year we learnt that you wanted to see more about us as a team, we managed to go 7 or so years with 1 team photo 🤷♀️. So we hope you enjoyed the individual profile posts this year. Most of us feel way more comfortable behind the scenes and letting you guys shine through on our page with all the details of your weddings.
To end on a high, there are so many it’s hard to choose! I think for me this year, it’s the support we received from vendors, it was meeting all our couples families and hearing their stories and the little DMs/emails we receive post wedding from your guests who attended and the general influx of new couples who have come through for 2024 and choose us because of your recommendations .
Now, I’m off to sip cocktails 🍸 by the pool before we do it all again in 2023. ✌️
Merry Christmas x 🎄
