Portobello Bride Featured Wedding: Mandy & Sammy by Jonas Peterson

A unique couple calls for a unique wedding and Mandy and Sammy are one of those couples! This truly bohemian, outdoor-and-adventure-loving couple created an amazingly rustic wedding on a beach in Bali. The big day had beautiful earthy and tribal details to really set off the celebration in a personalised way. The incredible photographer and Portobello Bride member Jonas Peterson captured the occasion with amazing style.

Mandy writes a message to be put in a bottle and cast out to sea as part of the ceremony.

Mandy's dress and headdress are truly spectacular!

Gorgeous!

Sammy casts the bottle out into the unknown... such a great idea for a beach wedding!

Portobello Bride Featured Wedding: Tessa & Jaime by Milk & Honey Photography

Tessa and Jamie chose to have a very intimate wedding with only their close family attending the celebration. The ceremony was held in a secluded backyard in the inner Sydney suburb of Paddington. The intimate number of guests allowed them to have a leisurely lunch on the back patio for the reception. Boho chic are the words that come to mind when looking at this wedding. The colours are blogs and beautiful and rumour has it the feel of the day was inspired by the Bride's budgerigar - sweet! The gorgeous photos below were taken by Milk & Honey Photography.

The stunning array of flowers were gathered by Tessa and her Mum by scouring the streets for them in the days leading up to the wedding. The coordinating, but miss-matched fabrics look fantastic!

The place card design works in so well with the overall styling of the wedding. Perfection!

Tessa's parents surprised the couple with a trio of musicians who played just after the ceremony!

Fabulous and happy colours!

The gorgeous couple!

 Sweet moments!

 This photo is simply stunning!

Cupcakes and croquet add to the laid-back casual, but celebratory feel of the day!

This is one truly unique and personal wedding, and that is exactly what we at Portobello Bride love! Congratulations Tessa and Jamie! We wish you every happiness for your life together!
