{Part 2} Fiona + Troy's beautiful Brisbane wedding. Time to party!

LOVE the apple garland!

The party begins!

We hope you enjoy part 2 of our Fiona and Troy blog post! This week we look at the couple post nuptials … having an absolute ball at the reception! We just loved the dancing photos, happy faces + reception venue table details … just gorgeous! We particularly love the black and white shots of Fiona and Troy during their first dance, a quiet moment the two had together before the night kicked off!

Fiona and Troy submitted their real life wedding recently and feature in the new Spring 2011 issue of Queensland Brides magazine (grab your issue online here : http://graphicpublishing.com.au/subscribe/qldBrides.htm). We were so smitten, we just had to show you as many gorgeous images as we could (we can only fit so many in the magazine!) So we hope you enojy part 1 of our Fiona and Troy blog post! This week we look at the couple ... in the lead up to that walk down down the aisle. Those special moments shared with your bridal party and family getting prepared and ready ealier in the day ...

Love the bow ties & suspenders, a dapper alternative to the regular tie and vest!

handsome group, yes?

Troy gave his groomsmen personally engraved harmonicas!

... yes she does!

Beautiufl bride Fiona. Love this candid shot, not to mention the jaw dropping blue suede YSL heels below! WOW!

THE COUPLE

Fiona Hiette and Troy Malcomson

THE HISTORY

Troy and I met twelve years ago at a high school dance, but it only feels like yesterday. Troy proposed in the kitchen of our newly bought townhouse. It was a complete surprise to me as I thought he may have proposed on a recent trip to Melbourne for our tenth anniversary. It was perfect - he had a huge bunch of flowers sitting on the kitchen bench, I went over to take a look at them and then turned around to thank him and there he was on one knee. All I kept saying was OMG, is this really happening! The ring was amazing. Eventually after all the OMG’s of course I said yes.
