WEDDING..

I am so exhausted this weekend has been full on! As you guys know we had D cousins wedding. Dims parents arrvied around midnight on friday so we had a late night catching up.


I ended up putting some extensions in my hair for some extra volume..looking back at this I miss my long hair!!  My hair dresser is the bomb an made it look so natural. I ended up wearing a blue lace dress from ladahk, black and gold Alice Mcall waist belt and nude Tony Bianco platform pumps.


The wedding was at 2.30 in South Melbourne surprisingly the weather wasn't as cold as I was expecting and the rain held out until just after we came out of the church hahaha then we all made a run for the car.


The South Melbourne Greek church is so amazing inside - I almost took more photos of the church than the wedding hahaha.. Only kidding. The reception was at Riva in St.Kilda and the back drop was stunning, we got to watch the sunset go down over the ocean.
The wedding was really beautiful it was a small intimate wedding with about (60?) people mainly the grooms family and the brides friends.


It was so good catching up with everyone again.
My favourite part of a wedding is listening to the speeches - The Groom (Ds cousin) and the bride both made speeches the brides was really touching as was the best mans speech!
Below is Ds two aunties and his mum next to me in Pink.


As you can tell by the quality of the photos.. the longer the night went on the messier everyone got..  there was so much alcohol and minimal food (The food was served on platters and everyone on the table helped themselves the food that they served was so delish).



Not many of you can say that they hit up the dance with their (future) mother in law.. but I did all night haha..It was such a beautiful wedding we danced away with the rain pouring down outside!


The beautiful couple!

        We ended up getting home just after 1am and I remember walking out of the reception and  
     realizing it was pouring rain tried to run to the car which was parked so far away then realizing I
  had huge heels on and that wasn't going to work so well. Good news was I wasn't too hung over this
          morning! Wine doesn't have a huge affect on me but champagne is my weakness.

We all went out for a recovery breakfast to the velvet bar on Bay Street.


American omlette with choritzo and a hash-brown on the side was enough to soak up all the left over alcohol floating around my system.

Whats your favourite hang over cure?

  4. Some people on my facebook attended this wedding too.

    We checked out the Sth Melb church to have our wedding there as they have a lovely english speaking priest who would have allowed a serbian orthodox wedding, but ended up finding another church.

  5. You two looked gorgeous:)
    Hmmm, could do with a hangover cure after this weekend. My cure is to wake up really early, throw down two litres of water, neurogenic and porridge, then go back to bed for another hour or so.
