Sarah loves Daniel | Luxury Estate Wedding

Sally Townsend — Thu, 18 Oct 2018 03:37:52 +0000

Sarah and Daniel were hectically busy working and studying during their wedding planning process, but they were cool, calm and collected about their big day. Sarah says their chosen wedding vendors were so excellent, they were able to leave everything in their capable hands after their initial meetings when they presented their vendors with their vision for their luxury Sunshine Coast wedding.

Bride, Sarah, tells us all about her dream come true wedding day, and how she and Daniel pulled it together.

The Proposal

“Daniel proposed one night as we were getting ready for bed by hiding the ring box under my pillow. It took me ages to work out why he kept asking me if I was comfortable and if I needed to move my pillow!”

The Venue

“We love the Sunshine Coast, it’s been our home for the past 4 years. We fell in love with Spicers Clovelly Estate during our first visit there. The location, the scenery, the food, the accomodation, being able to have our ceremony and reception all at the same venue – it was perfect.”

Advice for Future Brides

“I was told repeatedly to take in every moment of your wedding day because it goes so quickly. It was great advice. Take time to practice mindfulness,take a mental picture, enjoy the moment – because before you know it the last song of the night has played and its all done!”

Most Emotional Moments

“It was the ceremony. We knew it was going to be emotional, but our celebrant Carly delivered the most beautiful ceremony that resulted in lots of tears – from both us and our guests.

“Seeing Daniel for the first time as I walked down the aisle. That was the moment that it really hit me “wow, I’m marrying the love of my life!” I was trying to hold back tears but I was also smiling so much at the same time.”

The Music

“I walked down the aisle to Heart’s on Fire by Passenger, reception entrance was to Love On Top by Beyonce, and our first dance was Come Away With Me by Norah Jones.”
