This May I had the pleasure of tagging along with Coast Wedding Photography to shoot Tamara & Chris’ wedding at the gorgeous Ridge Estate on the Central Coast of New South Wales. These two humbly met at Fitness First many years ago. Chris, who worked for the gym at the time had a flirtatious back and forth with Tamara who kept accidentally forgetting her membership card. Eventually, the two worked up the courage to go on a date together and the rest, as they say, is history. Since then they’ve had two beautiful children and as of the 14th of May are married!

This fun and vivacious couple chose to have their entire wedding celebration at The Ridge Estate up in Peats Ridge on the Central Coast. This stunning venue offers an all-in-one wedding experience. Since the tranquil garden venue also features a 5 bedroom homestead, an outdoor altar and a large open barn for the reception, there’s no need to go anywhere else. This gives everyone a chance to take their time and relax during the day. The venue also features large open paddocks and the friendliest horses you’ll ever meet.

Tamara & Chris’s wedding was beautifully designed with an off-white, pink and eucalyptus colour palette. The bridesmaids were dressed in light sage dresses whilst Tamara wore a stunning lace gown from Luv Bridal. The groomsmen also looked dapper in their off-white suits with green and pink floral integrated into their ties.

By far one of my favourite stylistic elements of the day was the portable Florence bar by Memory Lane Weddings & Events. The bar itself is in an upcycled caravan which I think is extremely cool. The Florence bar has a beautiful pastel blue outside with natural wood and florals as well. Not only did the Florence bar give us insane summer/boho vibes, but their espresso martinis were to die for.
