The photographs
What the day threw at us
The only hiccup that happened was that the guest bus was delayed due to traffic! But overall this didn't affect anything and everything ran to time.
In their words
“From the help with the run sheet to the coordination on the day – everything was seamless and Jordan’s communication was top notch.”
Beyond grateful for the team at Managing Matrimony for all their efforts helping with wedding planning. From the help with the run sheet to the coordination on the day – everything was seamless and Jordan’s communication was top notch. Thanks again to the amazing team!!
Their story
The couple
Bec & Tim were the sweetest couple, even gifting us one of their homemade limoncello favours. They'd been together 5.5 years as of the wedding day. Bec's vision was a beautiful riverbank ceremony, bows fluttering in the wind. The weather turned it on for them, stunning sunshine and a light breeze. They were so calm, so ready to get married. And it was the most beautiful day.
The venue
Bec & Tim chose the stunning Terara Riverside Gardens as they loved the location, and of course the natural features of the greenhouse and the rose garden. Other venues didn't compare in terms of variety and beauty. They really wanted to showcase the riverbank and manicured lawns for their ceremony.
What we loved
From the perspective of their on-the-day coordinator, the highlights had to be sending Bec down to marry Tim, seeing their guests' faces when they saw their Limoncello seating chart and of course the giant cannoli. They really catered to their guests on their wedding day with custom lawn games and endless Aperol Spritzes and Espresso Martinis.
The proposal
Bec's stepmum had a 60th birthday trip to Europe, so they went over and joined them for a week in Spain. They made a whole trip out of it and went around Europe for 2 months.
By week 6-7, they went on a picnic (very normal for them) to Cabo da Roca in Portugal (the most western part of Europe) and Tim popped the question with the drone flying beside them capturing the special moment. They then went out to dinner by the beach and celebrated.

Very strong wind on the harbour did not mix well with the technology, and it still all came together.
