They say that when you meet the right person, you just know. So it’s no surprise Tash and Sam met, dated, and got married in about a year.

These two are clearly made for each other. I spent their wedding day getting to know so much more about them both, and I marvelled at how different they are, yet how completely and perfectly they fit together. A match made in heaven, as they say.

Heartfelt wedding vows, a Chinese tea ceremony, delicious meal, and a rocking party completed their big day, surrounded in so much love from their family and friends. Even the weather came to the party with a warm night spent outside, slow dancing under the festoon lights (scroll to the end~). These are the things summer is all about!

And to finish, proof that it’s always a good idea to sneak out of your reception for a slow dance on the lawn under the festoon lights.
