DREAM THEME Sally and Guy’s love affair began
after a chance meeting at a shop in Shellharbour
where Sally used to work. A decade later, Guy
proposed on a beach in Fiji, and six months later
the couple exchanged vows in front of 100 guests.
Acknowledging the bride’s Greek heritage, the
couple chose a Grecian wedding theme with a colour
scheme of orange, cream, and gold.
WATERFRONT WONDERLAND The couple had an
intimate ceremony and reception at The Lagoon
Seafood Restaurant in Wollongong. “I always knew I
wanted to get married at the Lagoon so everything
else was decided after the venue was booked,”
says the bride. After a small ceremony by the water,
the party moved to the Moonlight Reflections
room. Guests enjoyed canapés on the verandah
overlooking the water before a sit-down dinner of
grilled barramundi and beef fillet.
GREEK GODDESS The bride wore a cream Carla
Zampatti gown from David Jones. It was a Grecianinspired, one-shoulder design with soft draping
around the body and cinched in at the waist.
Chunky gold accessories complemented the
look. The bridesmaids wore bright-orange oneshoulder dresses.
BRIDE’S ADVICE “Do what feels right for you and
don’t buy into all the stress and chaos that can
come with planning a wedding.”
