Naomi & Daniel

I love a restaurant wedding – it’s the perfect excuse to really show off your favourite restaurant, order your favourite dishes and still have that lovely intimate feel. Naomi and Daniel’s gorgeous Sydney wedding was at  a particularly popular restaurant and ended in fireworks (as Sydney does so well!)

As for how they met? Here’s their story! “Naomi traveled to Ghana, West Africa to volunteer and met Daniel while she was over there. They fell in love and Daniel moved to Australia.”

gm photographics captured today’s beautiful photography while Couture Wedding Planning was chosen as the couple’s wedding planner.

Maria Lush Florist created the floral arrangements for the day.

Naomi chose a gown by Pronovias.

Naomi and Daniel were married at Seventh Day Adventist Church, Wahroonga. Naomi remarking, “The church was beautiful. Very special to the both of us.”

Naomi walked down the aisle to ‘The Bridal Chorus’ by Wagner.

Of their photographers, Naomi tells, “GM Photographics were simply amazing. We could not have asked for a more professional and fantastic team. We will cherish out beautiful photos forever.”

The stationery for the day was created by Huetopia Design.

Naomi and Daniel held their reception at Aria Restaurant. “Aria was breathtaking. The food and atmosphere were impeccable.” Guests received favors from MOR Cosmetics.

Faye Cahill Cake Design created the three tier wedding cake.

“Instead of a gift registry we decided to ask the guests to make a donation for the East African Food Crisis at the time. This cause means a lot to us. As Daniel is from Africa, he understands the hardships, and we wanted to do something for those in need.”

For their first dance, Naomi recalls, “I forgot the steps, but Daniel was there to remind me and guide me and it was beautiful.”

There was one final surprise, Naomi remembering, “I surprised Daniel with fireworks at the conclusion of the reception. He was so surprised. They were amazing. After the fireworks we took a private boat to the Park Hyatt and spent the night there.”

Congratulations Naomi and Daniel on your marriage! Thank you for sharing it with us! Thank you to gm photographics for sharing today’s images with us!
