Courtney and Ray’s simple and relaxed wedding at Victoria Park fitted them as a couple perfectly.
As a Wedding Celebrant, I love celebrating love, and believe wedding ceremonies should be tailored to each couple in a way that reflects the couple, connects with the guests, but also has the couple feeling as comfortable as possible so they can really enjoy every special moment of their ceremony.
On a crisp Brisbane Autumn afternoon, The Courtyard at Victoria Park provided a picturesque backdrop with sweeping views of the parkland and City in the backdrop for their “no fluff, no fuss” ceremony. The Courtyard space, with its signature arbour was adorned with fresh flowers, creating an ideal setting for them to exchange vows and make it official.
Courtney, arriving in style in a convertible Jaguar with the roof down, exuded elegance in her beautiful gown and veil accompanied by her bridesmaids in long soft pink dresses.
Being a Celebrant that likes to blend in seamlessly with the couples colour palette without standing out, I too wore a soft pink dress.
Ray and his groomsmen looked dapper in their navy suits, perfectly complementing the soft pink hues. As I delivered the pre-wedding announcements, the atmosphere buzzed with a sense of warmth and anticipation, a testament to the couple’s desire for a simple, stress-free ceremony.
I delivered their short and sweet ceremony in a happy and celebratory tone, setting the vibe for the rest of the day. They exchanged personalised vows sharing their love and commitment to each other, which they also kept simple and short.
Keeping the vows minimal, took the pressure off and was a great way for them to keep their nerves at bay.
Following the ceremony, the newlyweds and their wedding party cruised off around Victoria Parkland on a fun-filled photo session in golf buggies, making more special memories together.
Before returning to the Garden Marquee where they partied the night away surrounded by loved ones.
Courtney and Ray’s wedding is a beautiful example that sometimes less really is more. Their simple and heartfelt ceremony, filled with happiness and their undeniable connection, truly captured the essence of them as a couple. I loved being a part of their special day, and I was thrilled to receive a 5-star review from this happy couple. Congratulations once again, Courtney and Ray!
