With it’s convenient location and beautiful surrounding scenery, the iconic New Farm Rotunda is a dream venue for a wedding ceremony. We recently had the pleasure of styling this elegant wedding, with Celebrant Jamie Eastgate delivering an incredible ceremony, what a happy day it was!
How they made their day the best day ever!
Here’s some of the aspects that made their wedding such a memorable day that everyone (particularly them) thoroughly enjoyed:
-
Weekday Wedding Perks: Choosing a Friday afternoon for their ceremony offered the delightful benefit of New Farm Park being peaceful and serene. Typically bustling on weekends, the calmness of a weekday provided the perfect amount of privacy for the couple to exchange their vows at the entrance of the rotunda. It truly felt like we had the park all to ourselves.
-
Happy Ceremony: Having Jamie Eastgate deliver the ceremony was absolutely perfect! Jamie’s ability to deliver happy, celebratory, and genuinely enjoyable ceremonies was a perfect fit for this couples vision. What a joy to see guests along with the happy couple loving every heartfelt, heartwarming and hilarious moment throughout the ceremony.
-
Capturing Emotions: The couple shared personalised vows, that were both heartfelt and humorous. We especially love how their photographer captured these special moments with the guests in the background.
Fun fact: When one of us is your celebrant, we always step off to the side to allow your photographer ample opportunity to capture all the special moments, including the vows and of course the kiss shot, without us being in the shot!
- First Look, Lasting Memories: Opting for a first look before the ceremony was a brilliant move for these two. This allowed them to share those special pre-ceremony moments together and create memories over a drink or two while having their photographer capture it all. Having these earlier location photos also meant that after their ceremony, they got to spend more precious time with loved ones celebrating their marriage over cocktail hour at the rotunda.
An Elegant & Inviting Rotunda Ceremony Setup
The ceremony took place at the entrance of the rotunda, a truly magnificent backdrop. To enhance this stunning location, we adorned the ceremony space with elegant white draping. Framing the couple perfectly were our white aisle pillars adorned with beautiful, dried florals.
Ensuring the comfort of their loved ones, the couple provided 50 chairs for guests to be comfortably seated during the ceremony. The combination of white decor against the rotunda and the comfortable seating created a truly elegant and inviting atmosphere.
A Ceremony Filled with Happiness
Legendary Wedding Celebrant Jamie Eastgate, a Brisbane fav was chosen to create and deliver their personalised ceremony. (Full disclosure, I’m super proud that this highly sought after Brisbane Celebrant with hundreds of 5-star Google reviews just so happens to also be my husband!)
His warm personality combined with his signature happy, enjoyable, seamless ceremonies made him the perfect fit for this couples celebration.
Congratulations to the happy couple, and a special thanks to Celebrant Jamie Eastgate for his wonderful contribution to their special day!
