Portobello Bride Featured Wedding: Ramona & Daryl by It's Beautiful Here

Today we have the pleasure of sharing the personal and intimate wedding of Ramona and Daryl. The wedding was held in the Bride's share house in Fitzroy, Victoria. The gorgeous photos below were taken by Portobello Bride Member It's Beautiful Here.

Ramona tells us about her stunning dress:

My dress is so old I don't know who made it, but the Wedding Gown Specialists in Caulfield did an outstanding, loving restoration job on it and the amazing women at Elite Alterations in Richmond fitted it to me perfectly, in one go.

My grandmother bought it for my mother in 1960 when Mum was 15, to wear to her first ball. But Mum never wore it and in 1980 when I was 15 I pretty much stole it from her claiming it would "be the dress I married in" ... and it was! Thanks Nana.

The intimate atmosphere of this wedding is so precious!

Daryl and Ramona especially wanted to have photos taken outside this local unused church. The couple have spent many hours on these church steps together with a glass of wine. It's a very special place for them. Another beautiful personal touch.

Heath Boyd was our caterer and he was so easy to work with, he made the whole catering experience a delight. He embraced our vegan wedding with gusto and I think every guest commented on the amazing food he made. I hope I get to work with Heath again and can't recommend him enough! - Ramona [Bride]

What a beautifully personal and unique wedding!

Congratulations Ramona and Daryl. Best wishes to you both for your life together!

Thanks to Scout from It's Beautiful Here for allowing us to share these great images!

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!
