The Day

​

From the moment Siobhan walked down the aisle to see Edan for the first time, the day was overflowing with meaningful moments. Their two dogs, Narla and Indie, played a starring role as flower girls, delivering the rings mid-ceremony. With Jessie Belle guiding the celebration and sharing their love story, the ceremony felt deeply personal.

Held at Merne at Lighthouse, the day was filled with warmth, exceptional hospitality, and heartfelt touches. The couple cherished their quiet time away with photographer Meg during portraits, and their long-rehearsed first dance was a huge hit – all set to a soundtrack of love songs performed by Sam Hanson, who learned each one especially for them.

They travelled in style to and from the venue in the bride’s parents’ 1957 Chevy, a sentimental touch that included a nerve-calming chat with Siobhan’s dad on the way there, and a surprise bull ant bite on the way home. A sparkler exit, joyful dancing, and the peaceful atmosphere brought on by rain made the whole day feel incredibly intimate and full of love.

Styling leaned into native florals and natural textures, with leafy bouquets in bright colours from a local Inverleigh flower farm, greenery running down long tables, candlelight, and rustic wooden name cards.

Siobhan and Edan made a conscious effort to support local Geelong vendors wherever possible, and they especially wanted to thank Sharon and Caleb from Merne for going above and beyond to make planning seamless and the day itself unforgettable.
