Ashley & Allan’s wedding was the definition of intimate and meaningful. Picture this: a crisp September afternoon, a quiet stretch of private family property by the ocean, and just twelve of their closest loved ones gathered as they promised forever. No fuss, no distractions—just love, pure and simple.
The morning started separately, with both Ashley and Allan getting ready while sharing sweet moments with their little girl, Ava. She was at the center of it all, making their day not just about two people but about the family they’ve built together.
When it was time to say “I do,” there wasn’t a dry eye in sight - after their emotional ceremony, they walked back down the aisle hand in hand, Ava grinning between them. It was one of those moments that didn’t need anything extra to feel extraordinary—just the three of them, the ocean, and the people who mattered most.
Once the vows were sealed, family and friends arrived for their intimate on-site reception, and let me tell you, the details were chef’s kiss. Ashley’s floral applique sleeves? Stunning. Allan’s sage green suit? A+ in the style department. Classic florals from Twig and Twine Floristry completed the effortlessly elegant coastal aesthetic. And with Love Nest Events keeping everything running smoothly (including working around Ava’s schedule like a pro), the entire day felt perfectly relaxed and meaningful.
The heart of this wedding was family. You could feel it in every hug, every laugh, every stolen glance. From the flawless glam by Chantelle Brown and Robyn Lloy to the delicious cake by Michelle Ashley’s Bakery, every detail came together seamlessly. Golden Service Bar kept the drinks flowing, Horizons Catering served up a feast, and Glow The Event Store set the ambiance. And let’s not forget Ashley’s dress from Chester & Felicity—an absolute dream.
