Blue Mountains wedding with a difference The Turpentine Tree at Kurrajong

Eric looks with happy anticipation as Michelle arrives for their wedding ceremony.

When Michelle and Eric planned their wedding, they really wanted it to be inclusive of their family and close friends, to be fun and reflect their personalities, values and sense of humour, to reflect Michelle's Buddhist beliefs and to be a sincere and lovely statement of their loving commitment to one another. These lovely photograph are by Julian Beattie.  Thanks Michelle and Eric for making me a part of your day!

They had a refreshing cup of tea with their bridal party following the ceremony

I loved the bride's exquisite gown and her bridesmaids in bright florals

One of my favourite photos of a couple who clearly adore each other
