On the morning of Natalie and Tony’s wedding, there was not a cloud in the sky. A perfect summer’s day set the tone for the big event, which was a gathering of 430 guests.

As the bride and groom prepared to take their vows, the mood became electric and a group of flute players and Lebanese drummers entered the St Charbel Church in Punchbowl.

The reception took place at Doltone House, Hyde Park and guests dined on five extensive courses, as well as Lebanese Mezza and canapés.

Keeping with Natalie and Tony’s Lebanese heritage, the evening commenced with the official bride and groom entry to the sounds of beating drums.

After cutting the extravagant seven-tier wedding cake, Natalie and Tony danced the Bridal Waltz to Bryan Adam’s and Barbra Streisand’s “I finally found someone”.

Natalie’s biggest piece of advice for brides-to-be is to enjoy every moment of the wedding day, because it truly goes by so quickly!
