Portobello Bride Real Wedding - Holly & Adam

I love it when Aussie photographers with loads of creative talent find their way to Portobello Bride. Ben Adams who is both an amazing wedding photographer as well as a successful humanitarian/travel photographer is no exception. 
Ben captured Holly and Adam's pretty, colourful and casual wedding earlier this year. I love homestyle weddings and this gorgeous couple proved yet again, how you can really make a relaxed affair something memorable and really special.
There is nothing more beautiful than a happy and relaxed bride. Holly is simply stunning in her pastel blue wedding dress, her long natural hair, and a pretty headpiece of roses.
As for DIY details, Holly's takes the cake, dying her wedding gown blue in her bath tub. Talk about relaxed, I would have been petrified at the thought of doing that. It looks absolutely beautiful, and the shade of blue is my favourite. 

My favourite photo of the day.
The Prettiest table setting.
I can only imagine how thrilled Holly & Adam must be with their wedding photos, these are simply beautiful.
Holly, who works in the film industry and Adam Miller who is the most amazing guitarist are now based in New York.  I have been playing Adam's latest album all weekend. He is unbelievable, you have to check him out here
You can always tell when you an Aussie backyard wedding when guests take a seat on the esky, love it!

Portobello Bride Real Wedding - Ruth & Ben

Today's wedding looks like it has come straight out of any one of our favourite glossies. The fashion is simple and stylish, the setting relaxed and beautiful, the props very preppy and the bridal party are gorgeous. It is in fact the very sweet DIY wedding of Ruth and Ben which was photographed by one of Australia's coolest photographers, Glen Allsop. To read all about their wedding, visit one of the must read bridal blogs, Once Wed for all the lovely details.  From Ruth making her wedding dress, and her bridesmaids dresses, to the floral decorations and my favourite part, the relaxed moments that saw them even fitting in a game of Tennis. Love it!

Does it get any better than this-Love it!

Thanks to Glen Allsop for sharing your beautiful photos of Ruth and Ben's wedding with us. I look forward to sharing more of your weddings in the future.
