Morning Wedding at The Courthouse Restaurant Cleveland

  • Posted By cheryl

School teachers Sammi and Aaron chose to marry during the school holidays. They decided on a morning wedding at the Courthouse Restaurant at Cleveland. The couple envisioned a super chill and authentic ceremony, keeping it small and intimate with just their closest loved ones.

Breaking with tradition, Sammi and Aaron decided to walk down the aisle together, along with their three young children. They chose the song, “Palaces of Montezuma” by Grinderman for their entrance. Very cool!

Aaron and Sammi met up with photographer, Steve Doyle, for some classic black and white photos at the historic Courthouse before the ceremony. Against the timeless black and white floor tiles, Steve captured some elegant pictures.

The couple decided to create a Love Letters and Wine Box during their ceremony. They placed their printed wedding vows and a copy of their wedding menu in this special keepsake box.

What an absolutely stunning wedding! It was such a joy to be surrounded by such a lovely family.

Sammi left this much appreciated review,

“Cheryl was warm and welcoming when we met her at our first appointment. She gave us so many options and suggestions for our ceremony.

Cheryl is very organised and we received a wedding checklist folder which really put our minds at ease when gathering information for our ceremony.

Cheryl brought a smile to everyone’s faces throughout our ceremony. Her calm nature helped me to get through those first few anxious minutes.”

Beach Wedding at Straddie

Beach Wedding on Straddie
Louise and Travis don’t like being the centre of attention. For their wedding, they decided on a micro wedding at their favourite place in the world – North Stradbroke Island. With just their immediate families present, the couple started their forever on the white sands.
Louise and Travis chose the Sun Salutations option with beach wedding specialists Elope Stradbroke. The package included local Redlands celebrant Cheryl Landsberry, who created a personal ceremony with the couple, local Redlands photographer Romana Saeheng who captured memories of the ceremony , guests, and couple, and styling with a sun arbour, jute mat, signing table, and Americana white chairs.
Louise looked stunning in a slinky white dress with a low back, and a long veil pinned under her bun which caught the ocean breezes. She wore a retro string of pearls. Tradie Travis tied up his dreadlocks and donned a mint green jacket for the ceremony. The colour really suited the gorgeous aqua colour of the ocean.
After a short and sweet ceremony, the couple exchanged wedding rings and signed their marriage certificates. They grinned with delight at the simplicity of it all. Louise said laughingly, “it was that or nothing” echoing the feeling of so many couples who are delighted with their choice to celebrate with a stress-free micro wedding.
After a celebratory dinner with the family, the couple plan to throw a party in their backyard to celebrate with all their friends. That’s the way to do it!
Ceremony location: South Gorge, Point Lookout, North Stradbroke Island (booked through Redland City Council)

Evening wedding at Mowbray Park, East Brisbane

The thought of planning a traditional wedding with a seating plan, alternate drop meals, and a garter toss just didn’t fit with Steph and Curtis’s vision. Instead, they contacted the team at Elope Brisbane and booked the Simply Elope package with just the essentials – celebrant and photographer.

Steph and Curtis decided on a 7pm ceremony, to coincide with their anniversary time, so the hunt was on to find a ceremony location in Brisbane with night lights. Mowbray Park at East Brisbane alongside the Brisbane River was the perfect location, with the giant Fig trees decked in fairy lights providing plenty of light and ambience for the occasion. The heritage park looks over the river to the Story Bridge, which is also lit up at night, and provided gorgeous backdrop for the photos.

Steph grew out her golden hair and curled it for the ceremony. She looked gorgeous in a J’Adore sparkly purple evening gown, topped with a black wool cross over. Silver heels completed the look. Curtis was matching in a smart grey suit with a purple tie. He managed to include his lucky Meerkat socks to top off the outfit.

The couple organised a pre-wedding photo shoot in the afternoon to enable them to have some daylight snaps, then met their families at a Kangaroo Point bar for a sunset drink. Once the sun set, the families headed to Mowbray Park and were relieved to see the area had plenty of parking available.

The winter evening was crisp and clear, and the park looked magical. Steph and Curtis exchanged their marriage vows under an ancient fig tree, watched on by just their closest family. Their mums witnessed their signatures on the marriage certificates, and after a couple of family photos, the newlyweds and their parents drove off for a celebratory dinner in the city.

We loved working with this genuine couple and were so pleased we could bring their wedding vision to life.

Micro Wedding at Brisbane Botanic Gardens, Mount Coot-tha

After making the decision that they were in it for life, Mandy and Adam pictured a simple but elegant wedding with just their closest family present.

Mandy and her lifelong bestie, Maddi, prepped for the ceremony together, before arriving at the ceremony location in a sleek, black car. Mandy wore a beautiful white lace dress from @White Lily Couture, and Maddi wore a slinky midnight blue slip dress. Both had waves in their hair. Mandy takes care of her beautiful fair skin and looked luminescent  – a timely reminder of the importance of sun protection (I’m vowing to put this into practice more often now!)

Mandy and Maddi walked into the ceremony to “Across the Stars” by John Williams – a nod to Mandy and Adam’s shared passion of all things Stars Wars.

Deb from Miss Weddings had set up a white circular arbour with blue florals and white Americana chairs in the ceremony space at the Palm Tree Lawn at Brisbane Botanic Gardens, Mount Coot-tha.

Adam was looking super dapper in a crisp navy suit with a white shirt and a navy tie. His hair and beard were freshly trimmed, and he smiled as he caught sight of Mandy walking down the aisle towards him.

I loved working with this quirky couple to create a ceremony which reflected their personalities. We included a quote from Lord of the Rings, a reference to building Lego models together, a mention of the couple’s haughty  cat, Salem, and goals of coffee drinking on the balcony together.

It wouldn’t be a Mandy moment without a Taylor Swift song, so Adam’s first concession to his new wife was walking back down the aisle to “Paper Rings” by Taylor Swift.

After their intimate ceremony, the couple and their guests enjoyed cupcakes to reenergise during a photo shoot around the gardens.

Micro Wedding at New Farm Park

Hanna and Nick wanted bright flowers and a relaxed vibe for the intimate ceremony, inviting just their immediate families and a handful of friends. They asked the team at Elope Brisbane to create a low key, fun, and memorable ceremony for them. 

Hannah and Nick’s first home together was at New Farm, and so New Farm Park had a special significance for the couple. They decided to marry under one of the huge Fig trees at New Farm Park.

Steve from Kandid Kombi picked Hannah up and delivered her to the ceremony space in his colourful orange Kombi Van, Busta. Mel from Miss Weddings styled a hexagonal shaped white arbour with brightly coloured flowers and foliage, and set up Americana white chairs. Celebrant Cheryl Landsberry told the cute story of the couple’s meeting and led them through a sweet and simple ceremony.

Hannah was ethereal in a beautiful lace and tulle wedding dress with blush underlay from When Freddie met Lilly. In this job, you get to see a lot of gorgeous dresses. But this one might just be the new favourite! Hannah carried a bouquet of natives from Little Miss Flower Shoppe. Nick wore a sage green suit. This colour is so appropriate for a garden wedding, and we’re really loving it.
