The bride and groom announced their engagement over two years ago and the wheels were set in motion for the 'big day.' They chose the amazing back drop of the beach at Port Douglas Queensland for their celebration day.
Like many of the guests we made our trip a mini holiday. Mel and I booked an amazing tour after the wedding to the Daintree rainforest and Mossman Gorge. It was a fabulous experience.
We bought gorgeous dresses for the wedding. Oh and then there were shoes and bags and makeup, the list goes on and on! It kept us busy and we soon forgot about going to the gym or why we even signed up!
We flew on a country jet to Alice Springs, smack in the middle of Australia and then directly on to Cairns airport.
Port Douglas is an hour north by car. The weather was a warm inviting thirty degrees celsius. So much warmer than Perth at the time!
A day later the bride walked with her father among the wedding guests to meet her groom waiting expectandly for her. She was a vision in white. It was a truly wonderful wedding. The reception was relaxed and fun. The wine flowed and finger food was delicious. Everyone enjoyed a most wonderful wedding.
The bride's mother fell and broke her arm the day before the wedding. It wasn't planned, it just happened. It didn't take away from the two years of careful planning. The bride had her most wonderful day and her Mum and Dad were there to share it with her.
