Emily & Raph | Wattle Park Chalet

Emily & Raphael met during high school at their deb ball and have been inseparable ever since ^^ Still one of my fave weddings thanks to this awesome couple and their hilarious group of friends and fam! We laughed our butts off all day and I remember Luca (amazing videographer) and I soaking in the happy vibes and feeling so damn appreciative that we get to do this for work. In our email chats leading up to the day, Em told me she wanted to smash out the portraits so they could max out their time on the dance floor! Check out the party pics and you'll see what they mean xD To kick off the reception, Em & Raph celebrated their Polish heritage with both parents. In Polish tradition, parents serve the newlywed couple bread and salt as a blessing that their home will always enjoy abundance and that they may never go hungry or be in need. They followed it up with a modern twist on the second half and toasted with a shot of vodka instead of the traditional goblet of wine! The drink symbolises never going thirsty and having a life filled with joy and happiness ^^ So many great moments in here. Hope you enjoy looking through this gallery as much as I did capturing it! xx

P.S. Em's stunning wedding gown & bridesmaids dresses were all lovingly handmade by Raph's mum, Barb!

P.P.S. You're not seeing double, Emily is indeed a twin xD
