Simon married Felicity in an elegant Melbourne wedding on a warm summer’s day.

Simon’s tuxedo and French cuff shirt were from Arthur Galan. Simon’s tie was covered in tiny polkadots with the added touch of skulls to add a touch of individuality. His tie and scull cufflinks were from Alexander McQueen.



Simon says, “Everything ran like an expensive Swiss watch….except for forgetting my belt, leaving the rings in the hotel safe and having to get my speech printed again…..”

The Stokehouse is such an iconic venue in Melbourne, and this is where Suong and Robert chose to get married, on the deck overlooking the beach and Port Phillip Bay. Robert looked elegant in a charcoal suit from Hugo Boss His shoes were from Myer.




Robert’s groomsman complemented Robert’s outfit by wearing a suit which was tailored in Hong Kong. Their boutonierre was a classic white rose (two for Robert) which echoed the bride’s gorgeous white rose bouquet.

How gorgeous is this? Tim waited at the bottom of the stairs for his bride Tara and walked her down the aisle. You can feel the anticipation and excitement as Tim waits, catches a glimpse of his bride Tara and catches her hand.


The groom’s most memorable moment was watching Tara arrive, greeting her and walking in with her through the human aisle of friends and family.
