Photography by Anni Payne and Matthew Duchesne
We were very privileged to be a part of an intimate backyard celebration with a beautiful family who we have worked with before. The secret garden in the back streets of Paddington is a haven for love and privacy and we were thrilled to be a part of it! Tessa’s brother and beautiful wife were married in the same garden a year earlier with 100 or so guests and also knew how to celebrate a special day for themselves. Tessa and Jamie had a more intimate celebration with only their immediate family attending the celebrations, allowing the wedding lunch to be held on the back verandah that they had decorated with astro-turf and colourful styling and it seemed that Tessa’s budgerigar was the centre piece of inspiration!
The yellow and orange colours that Tessa chose for her outfit and flowers were just perfect and Tessa and her mother had scoured the streets the days before the wedding for the most amazing flowers which brought their colour scheme together. Their personal styling was impeccable and lovely to photograph!! Tessa’s parents surprised her with a trio of musicians just after the ceremony which was a lovely touch!
