Living right next door to Terara Riverside Gardens, it came as no surprise that Jodee and Dale chose to wed there. And it really is one of the most beautiful venues on the South Coast, being right on the Shoalhaven River.

A couple of years ago I had actually snuck onto their place with another bride and groom to get some shots in their quarry (and had paid for it getting caught in quicksand), so it was nice that despite my trespassing Jodee and Dale called me up and asked me to capture their day. It was great having Wolfmoon along again to film the day.

And it was a day full of joy, love and personality, Jodee looked gorgeous (with the help of Maidenhair and Natalie Gauci) in her gorgeous Love Marie Bridal Boutique gown customised by Paula Jane and she literally didn’t stop smiling the whole day!

A perk of having the wedding next door meant Dale could wake up in his own bed and have a relaxed morning at home. Todd (and his mo that I am eternally jealous) officiated the ceremony as Jodee and Dale became husband and wife. They celebrated in front of family and friends with a gorgeous circular arbour made by Jodees’ Dad as the backdrop.

Duck Duck Goose Catering served up their usual scrumptious feast while the marquee looked stunning thanks to Heart and Timber, and Sweetie Petite Caravan Bar looked awesome amongst the Autumn leaves. Stellastudioz had everyone up on the dance floor right from the get go!

I had such a great day with these two at Terara Riverside Gardens, thanks for making me feel like a guest!
