This Sydney Wedding At the Ivy Ballroom is Striking

This Sydney Wedding At the Ivy Ballroom is Striking


High school sweethearts Kathleen and Michael tied the knot in a stunning wedding, celebrating the happiest day of their lives.

Despite the global pandemic impacting their wedding plans, they still stuck to their original Wedding date knowing that love always wins.

Bride Kathleen told Wedded Wonderland, “My favourite part of the night was the party. We had stuck to our original date which we chose a year before the COVID pandemic had hit. Normal planning and prep were tenfold with such uncertainty around numbers, additional government restrictions, dancing etc. The week before our wedding, the government announced that we were allowed 20 people to dance, which now meant we could dance with our parents and grandparents. this meant the world to us.”

The couple were absolutely stunning, with Kathleen donning an intricately beaded Pallas Couture gown complete with a thigh-high split, while Michael looked dashing in a Tuxedo. The backdrop of their reception completed their sexy look, an all-black theme lit up by dozens of candles and hanging golden lights.

Reflecting back on the Big Day Kathleen told Wedded Wonderland, ” I am honestly just grateful I got to marry the man of my dreams. Many people aren’t as fortunate in the current state of the world. As long as weddings keep on happening, love keeps on winning.”

Be inspired, Fairies!
