reallife weddings

Due to COVID, they ended up having ample time to plan their wedding – close to 3 years! But it was worth the wait when their wedding day finally arrived. Their 80 guests from Melbourne and Brisbane were able to join them in celebrating their special day, and they were not disappointed, with a beautiful full 3 course meal and unlimited alcohol awaiting them.

Customs House was “AMAZING!” says Victoria. “We both fell in love with the venue when we first saw it.” Customs House staff assisted with lighting for photos, made sure to put food aside for Victoria and Brendan when they were busy chatting or taking photos, and they even followed Victoria around, carrying the train of her wedding dress on the day. “I could not fault the service we received from the venue” she remarks.

Their photographer, Bex from Raw Design Media, was fantastic, says Victoria. “Bex was a pleasure to work with and made us feel extremely comfortable on the big day.” And their lovely celebrant, Genene Deakin really stood out and made them both feel excited to get married!

With every part of the day feeling special to Victoria, she says that what surprised her was how surreal the day feels. “It is like a pinch me moment when you get married, and you feel very special on the day!”
