This afternoon I get to introduce you to the wonderful Rhianna & Mark where their Tasmanian wedding took place outdoors and photographed by the wonderful Lakshal Perera AKA Lucky.

Taking place in the grounds of Quamby Estate, Tasmania, Rhianna & Mark had a beautiful day full of sunshine, family and friends. Even their dog Duncan had a part to play being their ring bearer.

“We don’t stress about much and we wanted our family and friends to have a great time”

I was having a BBQ across the way from Mark’s work. It was a last minute thing so I had forgotten few things so I thought I would ask the restaurant across the road if I could borrow some tongs. I went in to ask and Mark’s response was “You can have some tongs, but only if I can have your number” and I wrote it down, took the tongs and ran giggling like the little school girl I was. On our wedding day our best friend gave us some barbecue tongs that had “Stuck Together Forever” engraved on them. It made us so happy!

The highlight of our wedding day was getting married! But it was also seeing all our most loved feeling as happy as we did and involving them in our hand fasting ceremony.

I collected tea cups and saucers to plant succulents in to use as name card holders and gifts. I made 20 odd pompoms that I hung from the ceiling and I hand cut all the table runners.

I collected vases for the flowers from tip shops and op shops. I also made cake stands from plates and candle stick holders and I made all the photo booth props.

My mum helped me with so much of the DIY and we spent so long on those bloody pompoms but we loved it, it wouldn’t have been the same without the DIY.

“I knew what kind of dress I wanted from the start.”

I was worried with the style of dress that people would think I was trying to cover up my tattoos when really, I just loved the style of dress and I wasn’t trying to hide them at all.

How fabulous do Rhianna & Mark look? I love their hand fasting ceremony too. Be sure to leave them both and their photographer Lucky some love!
