Wedding season means weddings everywhere and celebrities aren’t excluded!
Our Australian (and international) celebrities have had some beautiful weddings this year- we thought we’d show some on Polka Dot Bride!

First up, a not so real wedding- the wedding of Peter Baker and Amanda Vale on Home and Away aired last night on Channel 7.
Walked down the aisle by son Ryan.
Holly Brisley who plays Amanda looked stunning in her Pallas Bridal gown covered with crystals. She wore no veil, instead wearing earrings from Nikki Kovesi were a feature. She wed Peter in a garden ceremony surrounded by family and friends.
Amanda’s earrings were a spectacular feature.
Her bridesmaids were dressed in blush pink gowns by Messina (02 9698 5099), and finished with crystal jewelery and matching shoes.
The processional was by Katie Noonan and is called ‘Love’s My Song’. A beautiful ceremony- but in true Home and Away style was ruined by a sordid plan to make Amanda suffer (devised by her sister!)

Ada and Chris had a black, white and red ‘mad hatter’ style wedding cake as a nod to Chris’ support of football team the Sydney Swans. Their reception involved plenty of Greek dancing and eating at Sydney’s Shangri-La hotel.

Erica wore two Alex Perry designed gowns- which he gifted to her, one a sleek fitted dress was worn for the ceremony, and a shorter, fun dress was worn for the reception. Erica and Andrew filled the reception with white flowers and danced the night away (in her sparkly Terry Biviano shoes!).
