This Wedding Stylist Styled Her Own Wedding!

This Wedding Stylist Styled Her Own Wedding!

With their wedding planner pulling out two weeks before their big day, Carly was still determined to make sure her wedding was nothing short of perfect. Luckily, being in the industry, Carly went into full damage control, spending two weeks adjusting their budget and negotiating with suppliers, creating the wedding of Carly and Ahmed’s dreams.

A clear marquee, long timber tables, crystal candelabras, chandeliers, clear acrylic signage and clear table accents, this couple went all out, celebrating their special day in a beautiful outdoor venue, overlooking the Shoalhaven River on a property blanketed in fruit trees and paddocks.

The bride Carly was dressed in a gorgeous Maggie Sottero ivory lace gown, encrusted with clear crystals, set upon a sweetheart neckline and low V back. This was stunningly complimented with an ivory phalaenopsis orchid bouquet, crystal tiara and rose gold Italian heels … The perfect combination!

Making kicks in the air more fun, these lovebirds had specialised decal sticker on the bottom of their shoes reading, “I love you from head to toe”!

As the sun set, the newlyweds entered the marquee for one of the most memorable time of their life, with family and friends cheering them on to the sound of Lebanese drums!

Congratulations Carly & Ahmed!
