If you think there’s not much you can do to make a wedding at your house beautiful and personal, think again. I fell in love with the little details Mel & Graeme thought up – from the little chandeliers hanging over the carport, to the petal-strewn driveway, to the lanterns inside the marquee, to the heart-shaped rose-filled wire ornaments…I could go on for ages!
Or I could just let the photos speak for themselves.
Mel’s blue-grey vintage-inspired wedding dress was designed by the fabulous Abigail Betz.
She wore shoes she already owned…and why not, when they’re this pretty?
Her birdcage veil with feathery-rosey yumminess was also designed by Abigail Betz.
Mel and Graeme did a First Look before their ceremony. I set Graeme up under the gazebo and had Mel walk out to meet him. I think his face says it all.
Graeme’s two sons stood beside the couple as they made their vows and became a family. I love the expression on 9-year-old Nicholas’ face in this one.
I love everyone clapping as Mel and Graeme were pronounced husband and wife.
…the perfect end to a perfect wedding. Mel and Graeme, I hope you love your photos as much as I loved your wedding.
Absolutely gorgeous photos! Love her dress!
Awesome post! I love the way you capture all of the details.
You did an aazing job. Very nice photos and a superb job on the details!
I’m loving the details shots. So hard to get right and you nailed em.

they are an adorable couple and everything – your details, your portraits, your candids – really show how warm and intimate the celebration was. LOVE the dress too! 
Fab details and I love the shot of the bride clipping her veil into place, in particular. I wish people could get married at home over here!

You, my dear, are brilliant. I love every single image and just can’t help but love a couple who put together a wedding like this. Just fantastic!
Beautiful images that weave their way into the fabric of Mel and Graeme’s special day and reveal the substance so tenderly and meaningfully. Bravo Kat! Fantastic work … again :~)
I LOVE the texture on the photo of the shoes!
[...] Mel and Graeme celebrated their wedding at home in their garden. It was relaxed, charming, intimate, cosy and I could go on and on.
