jason + zara | handcrafted highlights film | brisbane wedding
Watching two people get married is always amazing...but there's something really special about watching two dear friends tie the knot! it's hard to describe the feeling! It is just surreal and very special!
Jason has been a family friend for many many years and it was awesome to be travelling together when he met Zara in New Zealand. It didn't take us long to realise that Jason + Zara were meant to be.
This really was a spectacular day and we were so honoured to be able to capture it for our friends.
With every wedding comes a few nerves, which now seem wasted as Jason's 'Groom-zilla' organisation and spreadsheets meant for a perfectly smooth day.
We have so many amazing memories from the night and hope the film shows how much fun they are and what a great team they make.
We love you guys and are so happy for you both!

dane + laurie | handcrafted highlights film | gold coast wedding
We have known Dane + Laurie for a long time, so it was an absolute privilege to be apart of their special day!
They are true high school sweethearts and definitely have that special connection....10 years in the making!
The boys started the day relaxing down at the local pub, with a few light ales to calm the nerves. While the ladies were sipping on Champagne and getting pampered at The Breakers Apartments in Surfers Paradise.
All the guests started gathering at Stella Maris Catholic Church as the skies started to clear, giving us some amazing light!
It was clear to see how happy Dane + Laurie were by smiles on their face as they walked out of the ceremony as Mr & Mrs Grant!
We then made our way across the road to the stunning Mermaid Beach with Brad Whelan Photography where we managed to capture some breathtaking shots of the newly-weds.
The party kicked off at Southport Gold Club, even with a special appearance by Dane's good mate Nick Maxwell!
Celebrations went long into the night and no doubt a few sore heads the next day!
Congrats guys, looking forward to sharing a few more drinks with Mr & Dr Grant for years to come!

sarah + liam | handcrafted highlights film | casuarina wedding
Well there's no secret that we get to work with the best couples and Sarah + Liam were no exception!
The day started early with the boys teeing off for a relaxed game of golf at The Glades. After a few attempts for a hole in one, the boys made their way back to start their preparations, with a Peroni in hand of course.
Sarah and her Bridesmaids were busy getting ready at her parents beautiful house, in Casuarina.
The ABBEY at Cobaki was the venue for Sarah + Liam's Wedding Day. The outdoor chapel was so quaint, making it the perfect setting for Sarah + Liam to become Husband & Wife!
The sun started to say hello as we got some awesome footage around the lovely grounds of the ABBEY. The guests then moved in to the reception room where the celebration went long in to the night.
Sarah + Liam are a true example of 'when you know, you know'... your love for each other really does show and your happiness shines through every smile.
Congratulations Sarah + Liam and thank you for a very fun day behind the camera. All the best for the future!

katie + khaled | handcrafted highlights film | byron bay wedding
Katie + Khaled's beautiful Byron Bay Wedding took place at the stunning Byron View Farm. Perched up high, the stunning venue looks down over the picturesque Byron Bay.
Khaled is a well know Brisbane Barber, so the day began with the boys in town where they relaxed with a cut throat shave. We then travelled up to the ladies who were busy preparing at the grounds of Byron View Farm.
Katie + Khaled said their 'I Do's" on the lawn in front of the cottage, with the Byron Hinterland in the background and the sun shining brightly over all the guests.
We hope their film shows the true emotion and love Katie + Khaled have for each other and it proves just how picture perfect Byron View Farm is.
Thank you Katie + Khaled for allowing us to share in your special day.
All the best guys!

lyndsee + jacob | handcrafted highlights film | sanctuary cove wedding
Lyndsee + Jacob had originally planned a destination wedding in Fiji until the health of Lyndsee's father deteriorated. They than planned a Gold Coast wedding so they could celebrate their love with family, friends and most importantly Lyndsee's father. Sanctuary Cove was an amazing backdrop for their special day and did we mention the weather.
With flooding through-out South-East Queensland the week leading up to the wedding, the weather man couldn't have been better to us. Perfect blue skies and the bright afternoon sun made for an amazing ceremony setting at the Garden Terrace.
The bridal waltz was a year in the making and all the hard work definitely paid off. We have never seen a more polished first dance (thanks to Lyndsee's dancing background). The guests celebrated long in to the night with some solid dance moves.
Thanks to Lyndsee + Jacob for allowing us to be a part of such a special occasion. We hope your wedding film is something that you and your family will cherish for a lifetime.

sally + pierre | handcrafted highlights film | rome wedding
Earlier this year we had the absolute honour of making our way over to Italy to film Sally + Pierre's destination wedding in Rome. It wasn't just a wedding, it was a three day celebration enjoyed by Sally + Pierre's closest family and friends.
The wedding day began with Sally + Pierre's preparations at the breathtaking Rome Cavalieri Resort. Once they were looking a million bucks we made our way to one of the most amazing churches we have ever stepped foot in.... the 'San Marcello al Corso'. Hundreds of people lined the busy street in the heart of Rome to see Sally arrive with her father, there was a massive cheer as Sally stepped out of the car. Both John and Sally couldn't wipe the smile off their face. The historic San Marcello al Corso was the perfect setting for Sally + Pierre to tie the knot.
After a celebratory drink outside the church we travelled to St. Peter's Basilica where we captured some great moments in between the thousands of tourists. We then made our way to the michelin star Ristorante Mirabelle which overlooked the historic city. The sun set on what was an amazing day and all the guests enjoyed great food, great company and great entertainment long in to the night.
What an awesome couple and what an awesome experience. Thank you Sally + Pierre!

brooke + jamie | handcrafted highlights film | hunter valley wedding
After the scary floods the week leading up to the wedding, the Hunter Valley sure did deliver an amazing day! Everything was perfect…. thanks to Brooke’s organisation!
It all started with a beautiful ceremony at The Lovedale Chapel, followed by two-up and Anzac Biscuits on the lawn to celebrate Anzac Day.
We then moved to Margan Estate Winery, where the real celebration began. The reception room was stunning. Two long candle-lit tables, covered with an abundance of beautiful flowers and surrounded by vintage wine barrels.
Does it get any better?
Formalities kicked off with a heart-felt speech by the proud Father of the Bride and finished with many, many, many laughs by Groomsman Matt.
The dance floor was flooded by one and all, producing very impressive dance moves… however, none as impressive as the ‘Eagle Rock Pants Drop’.
Congratulations to Brooke + Jamie on an absolutely amazing Wedding. We wish you all the very best for your long & happy life together and can’t thank you enough for letting us be a part of your special day!

tiff + pete | handcrafted highlights film | gold coast wedding
Words can’t describe how fun Tiff + Pete’s wedding day was! We began the day with Pete and the boys at their Villa in Surfers Paradise. The morning was relaxed for the lads while Tiff and her bridesmaids were busy making themselves look a million bucks (which isn't that hard really) at their beautiful home in Bundall. Tiff + Pete transformed their luxury Bundall home in to a stunning wedding venue.
With the sun beaming through the trees in the stylish backyard ceremony setting, Pete and Tiff tied the knot in front of all their loved ones. The guests then moved to the front of the property where the Spanish theme for the night was kicked off in style when ‘Big Papas Tapas’ were served. While the guests were wining and dining with their Spanish Tapas we were off capturing amazing footage at the Botanical Gardens in Benowa.
Jackson and his team were hard at work transforming the backyard once again ready for the reception to begin and they didn't disappoint. Everyone was blown away with the amazing festoon lighting thanks to Michelle Barnes and the beautiful furniture thanks to the Little Gray Station, not to mention the gardens. The Sangria flowed all night and everyone celebrated with Tiff + Pete in style. Thanks for the awesome day guys; we loved every second of it.

bree + brownie | handcrafted highlights film | brisbane wedding
There is no secret that we get to work with the best couples and Bree + Brownie were no exception. Their special day was full of class and style from start to finish. Not only was it Bree + Brownie’s wedding day it was also the Caulfield Cup and this was no coincidence. Bree + Brownie have a love for the sport of kings and this was truly a royal wedding destined to give Kate and Will a run for their money.
The day began with the boys studying the form guide and placing their bets. Meanwhile Bree and her bridesmaids were busy preparing at The Domain in Eagle Farm with a champagne in hand.
Once the preparations were complete we headed over to Hendra Catholic Church where Bree + Brownie began their life as husband and wife.
While the guests were sipping on their Pimm's cocktails at the garden party back at the BRC, we were busy capturing some incredible footage before the sun went down.
The reception maintained the theme of the day being colour, which blew the guests away as they entered the transformed Tote Room thanks to the amazing Judi from Little Gray Station. With horse racing puns at the top of the list, the speeches were hilarious while maintaining sentimental value.
Thanks to Bree + Brownie for allowing us to be a part of this truly royal occasion.

ashlee + aidan | handcrafted highlights film | brisbane wedding
We were lucky enough to be a part of Ashlee + Aidan's special day. The heavens opened up on us briefly after the ceremony (which I'm sure Aidan didn't have in his spreadsheet), however the sun then started beaming through the clouds which allowed us to get some magnificent footage. What a great day it was. Congratulations Ashlee + Aidan!
