This Bride and her Bridesmaids Were the Picture of Luxe Chic

This Bride and her Bridesmaids Were the Picture of Luxe Chic

Renee Forrest and Bryce met almost 18 years ago and finally tied the knot!

The Bride donned a uniquely structured and sexy gown designed by her brother, who just happens to be an Australian fashion designer! And she complemented her look perfectly with a cascading bouquet. Her Bridesmaids were ultimately chic in grey structured gowns each custom designed.

The couple exchanged vows in Mascot church, followed by their photoshoot at the Opera House, and celebrated the night away at their secret enchanted garden wedding reception.

“Our wedding reception to me was special and splendidly romantic with a harpist playing on entrance, our surroundings were that of an enchanted secret garden, with an arbour filled with roses and hanging greenery everywhere you turned. The evening started with heartfelt speeches followed by an abundance of beautiful food and drinks. As the night went on the dancefloor was full – we had Scotty on the Sax with vocalists and a DJ – the dancefloor then finished with a bang and an army of drums,” Bride Renee told Wedded Wonderland.

Be inspired, Fairies!
