“Share as much of the day as you can together – I loved getting ready with Carmen and sharing breakfast. Throw out old traditions if they don’t fit – we wanted our wedding to be a celebration of us and our friends and families rather than an overly sentimental event full of what we perceived as antiquated traditions. It’s your wedding – plan the day that you want to remember. Everything that we planned was because we wanted it that way.”⁠ ⁠ From start to finish, Carmen and Tom shared every moment of their wedding day. Their wedding was filled with tender, playful moments, from their two beautiful dogs, a flower-hungry goat and their infectious joy.⁠ ⁠ Live now on Polka Dot Featured – link in bio!⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @sarahgodenziphotography / Wedding Cake: @am_bakehouse / Bride's Suit: @annacordellclothing / Groom's Attire: @annacordellclothing / Flowers: @thriveflowers / Wedding Ring: @lottstudio / Cake Topper: @that.little.nook / Reception Venue: @collingwoodchildrensfarm / Catering: @farmcafeweddings/ / Musicians: @bakerboysband / Ceremony Officiant: @natsproal.melbournecelebrant / Sweet Treats: @sweetmickie / Pet Sitter: @theweddingsitter.au⁠ ⁠ [Image one description: Sitting on a wooden bench in front of a river, Carmen rests her legs on top of Tom’s lap.

“Don’t get bogged down too much in the minutia “Don’t get bogged down too much in the minutiae or worries that things will go wrong. Things will go slightly wrong at some point, but remember that you're in love, you’ve got each other’s backs and everyone at the wedding is there to cheer you on. If you slip during the dance or cry too much out of joy, your guests will only love and applaud it.” – @louisafitzy & @djandrewmcclelland⁠ ⁠ What happens when you throw a wedding and your guest list is filled with performers?
