Lucy and Andrew
Today’s real wedding is so amazingly reflective of the beauty of the Australian landscape that I couldn’t wait to share it. A relaxed beach side wedding which was beautiful in it’s simplicity and nod to the beauty of the surroundings.
Lucy and Andrew married last month at the Avalon Coastal Retreat on Tasmania’s East Coast. The ceremony took place on the beach while the house on the property (designed by Rosevear Arcihtects) was the stage for the reception.
The photos today are by Tasmanian photographer Jonathan Wherrett
The stunning Tasmanian coastline
Lucy assembled her own bouquet using flowers from the local market.
The couple wore thongs (flip flops) all day
Lucy’s niece wore a fairy costume for the wedding day.
While the bride and her maids bustled to get ready, Andrew took a more relaxed approach.
Check back later this afternoon for the beautiful, relaxed portrait shots and the beautiful reception!

Ok, I was going to ask how they got from the beach to a gorgeous, sprawling field on their wedding day. Apparently you just have to go down under!
