How They Met

Jessica and Bradley’s wedding was a true celebration of love, filled with warmth, intimacy, and classic elegance. These two lovebirds first crossed paths at The Argyle nightclub in Sydney on June 17, 2017, and their connection has only grown stronger since that fateful meeting. Fast forward to January 24, 2022, when Bradley surprised Jessica with a romantic getaway to Bendooley Estate in Berrima. Little did she know, this trip would mark the beginning of their journey towards forever.

The Proposal

During their stay, Bradley orchestrated a delightful lunch at the estate’s restaurant, where they indulged in a delicious meal and shared a glass of wine. Little did Jessica know that this lunch would be the backdrop for a life-changing moment. As they sat by the cozy fireplace, Bradley got down on one knee and presented a ring, asking Jessica to be his forever. Overwhelmed with joy, she wholeheartedly accepted his proposal, sealing their commitment to a future together.

Planning The Wedding

With a shared love for classic and traditional styles, Jessica and Bradley wanted their wedding to reflect their timeless taste. They aimed for an atmosphere that would make their guests feel comfortable and cherished throughout the day. The bridal party’s attire perfectly matched their vision, with the bridesmaids donning stunning bronze dresses that captured the warmth of the occasion, while the groomsmen looked dapper in traditional tuxedos and pleated shirts.

Choosing the venue was a crucial decision, and the couple found the perfect setting at Curzon Hall. From the grand entryway to the sandstone castle and the exquisite stained glass windows, it was a dream come true. The Grand Banquet Room, with its majestic chandeliers and arches, made Jessica and Bradley’s hearts skip a beat. They knew instantly that this was the place where their wedding dreams would come to life.

To complement the venue’s natural beauty, the couple opted for simple yet elegant floral arrangements. White baby’s breath, roses, and orchids adorned the space, allowing the venue’s charm to shine through. The invitations, shaped like an arch, combined white and gold tones, mirroring the venue’s aesthetic.

The Wedding Day

As the day unfolded, every detail fell seamlessly into place. The candles in the reception created an intimate ambiance, bringing the couple’s dream to life. The color scheme of gold/bronze and white tied everything together, harmonizing with the venue’s enchanting atmosphere. For their location shoot, Jessica and Bradley chose the iconic QVB, with its stunning stained glass windows and beautiful architecture. The addition of a classic white Rolls-Royce added a touch of elegance to their special day. Jessica’s choice to wear gloves and style her hair in a sleek bun was a nod to the timeless beauty of Audrey Hepburn.

The Church of Our Lady of Victories in Horsley Park, NSW, served as the sacred backdrop for their wedding ceremony. As Jessica walked down the aisle, it was a moment that took everyone’s breath away. However, the entire day was filled with magic and joy, with not a single hiccup or issue. Bradley even mentioned in his heartfelt wedding speech that Jess “never misses a beat,” and their wedding day was no exception.

A Moment of Gratitude

Both Jessica and Bradley are immensely grateful for the incredible vendors who made their day so memorable. They express their utmost appreciation and would choose the same group of talented professionals again and again if they could. The couple also extends their love and gratitude to their parents and bridal party, as they played an integral role in making their wedding day absolutely perfect.

The photographer was deeply moved by the interactions between the newlyweds and their families. Every moment shared, whether it was the sight of the bride’s family beholding her in her wedding gown or the emotional tears shed by the bride’s brother as she walked down the aisle, touched the photographer’s heart. It felt as though they were a part of the family, capturing the genuine emotions and the joy of the occasion. 

Jessica and Bradley’s wedding was a testament to the power of love, the beauty of simplicity, and the importance of cherishing every moment. Their classic and traditional style permeated every aspect of their special day, creating an intimate and magical atmosphere that will be remembered by all who were fortunate enough to be a part of it. As they embark on their journey as husband and wife, may their love continue to grow, their hearts remain filled with warmth, and their spirits forever dance to the beat of their love story.
