It might be cheating a little when your family has a little vineyard on the Mornington Peninsula, but in every way that counts this was a backyard wedding (which are my absolute favourite weddings to shoot). Liv and Jonny DIY’d most of their decor, they had family friends assist with catering in a mutual agreement they have where they help each other out at important family events, there was a tractor tray full of ice and a variety of drinks, the cake was made by a talented aunt. Liv bought her dress secondhand and Jonny bought a quality blazer and mismatched chinos that he’ll be able to work again. Their pup Maggie was the centre of attention and had free reign through the entire wedding. Liv and Jonny were having so much fun that they almost forgot to do speeches. I love backyard weddings because they’re simple and meaningful, stripped back to the important stuff. This day was perfect because it was full of important people and important relationships, which is what I love to capture most.
