“Daniel and Maryana met at Southbank whilst out for the evening with their respective friends enjoying the night life. Maryana was single and ready to mingle! What she didn’t know was that she wasn’t going to be single for long after meeting her handsome groom to be that night!
Daniel spotted the gorgeous Maryana from afar and decided to do the courageous task of chatting her up. They got along well and Maryana was a little keen to get to know this fella a bit more. The end of the night came and Maryana was hoping for a kiss but Daniel being the gentleman that he was, decided to refrain from such a gesture. Maryana had lucked out! At some stage during the night, they must have exchanged phone numbers as a few days later, Maryana was going to a festival, and she decided to ask Daniel to come with her. She wasn’t quite sure if he would say yes or not but to her surprise, he came along. They dated for months, and it got to the point that obviously Daniel was a bit slow on the uptake as Maryana had to ask, “are you going to ask me to be your girlfriend?”
It would be their similar interests and values in life that would lead to a somewhat drawn-out proposal from Daniel to his gorgeous bride to be. Daniel had found a ring, so he was all set. They went to Mooloolaba one weekend for their anniversary, so this was the perfect time for Daniel to pop the question. He had planned to propose at dinner, but the restaurant wasn’t quite the place they thought it was going to be so Daniel didn’t do it there. They then went to another place for drinks, but he still didn’t get the courage to do it. They then went for a romantic walk along the beach. This was the perfect location for a proposal at the water’s edge with the moon reflecting off the water however, Maryana happened to spot a rat and was quite disgusted by this, so it just wasn’t the right moment. By this stage, the ring was burning a hole in his pocket!
They got back to their accommodation and in the confines of their room and with Maryana in her PJs, Daniel FINALLY asked the question. After all this, Maryana thought he was joking and asked him in a colourful way was he serious??? Maryana was so excited that she just simply cried….ALOT!
Maryanna and Daniel said their “I dos” at Redland Bay Golf Club. Miss Weddings styled their incredible space. Flowers by TN Bloom, signage by Amber Luxe. Photos by Romana Saeheng of course lol. Their day was epic! So romantic and so beautiful!

Kathleen and Alexander first met in an outback Hospital. Kathleen was a newly hired nurse, and on her first day, an intern wearing a pink dress shirt instantly caught her eye. Kathleen decided that her new job might be pretty interesting.
Not long afterwards, when Alex was relocated to Brisbane, Kathleen followed him, and they set about trying every restaurant on Alex’s rather long short-list.
Too besotted with each other to wait for international borders to be opened, Alex and Kathleen were married in a simple ceremony by the Brisbane River, surrounded by colleagues and friends. Their families overseas watched on via livestreaming. Celebrant Cheryl Landsberry guided the couple through the legal requirements and listened in as the couple exchanged sweet personal vows. Alex said, “You are the story I’ve always strived to write,” and Kathleen replied with, “You have become my best friend and my safe place.”
After cup cakes created by Cakes by Simone, guests made their way to a city restaurant for drinks while Kathleen and Alex made the most of the soft light before dusk with photographer Romana Saeheng.

Miranda often shared her memories of Lake Louise with Josh, and he just knew that this was the ideal place to propose to Miranda. Josh was so nervous about losing the ring during the trip to Canada, that he carried the engagement ring with him everywhere he went. On their first trip to Lake Louise, the weather closed in, and Josh’s proposal plans were thwarted. But their next visit to the lake brought perfect conditions, with a clear blue sky and a crisp day. The lake was frozen over, and Josh finally had his opportunity. Miranda was keen to head back inside to the warm fire, but Josh convinced her to stay a little longer, and he dropped to one soggy knee and proposed.
Miranda and Josh have been welcomed into each other’s family, and their wedding day was a celebration not just for the two of them, but for all their family and friends.
Their wedding ceremony and reception were both held at Redland Bay Golf Club.

When you know that all you want to do is just marry your person, no bells, no whistles, no stress.
Our hearts just melted when marrying Hannah & Josh, so much love, devotion and adoration. Both shy and not wanting ‘a fuss’, the ‘Newly-Wed’s-to-be’ chose Elope Brisbane for the simplicity and intimacy of a small wedding ceremony. Spending quality time together has always been an important element of their relationship, as well being very close to their immediate family. They felt that the best way to honour this was to keep it just them.
So, with the love and support of their parents they tied-the-knot at sunset, down by the Brisbane river underneath the iconic Story Bridge. It was symbolic, it was private, it was romantic, it was perfect!
A little nervous the Groom waited for his Bride under the beautiful Fig Tree. On approach and looking radiant in her gorgeous bohemian inspired lace dress, Hannah saw her man (back turned). She suddenly stopped with an overwhelming sense of ‘this is really happening’. Dad, with his Irish accent and tears welling, gave her some reassuring words and a loving hug. A couple of steps more, Josh turned for that ‘first look’, gave her the biggest of smiles and all was fine. When you have ‘your person’ by your side then you know that love is what gives you strength. With a deep breath, a moment to savour, loving glances and a sneaky kiss, Ketrina, was given the go ahead and began the nuptials.
A simple and sweet ceremony was their request. It was intimate, heartfelt with a few giggles along the way. Dad’s were the ring bearers, Mum’s were their witnesses. They held their ceremony their way.
Having shared their minimal vows and exchanged their rings, they enjoyed a few more meaningful words read by Ketrina, while holding hands. This time allowed for them to truly appreciate and digest that moment in time, without distraction.
‘You may kiss!’ and without delay, they embraced with joy and delight! Yay! All married!!! How wonderful!!
Captain Burke Park at Kangaroo Point in Brisbane offer’s so many photo opportunities; the dramatic backdrop of the Story Bridge, the glitzy city skyline, the parkland, river and not too far away the cliffs. And if you get the timing right, the ‘golden hour’ offers stunning lighting along with the chance to romance under the pretty fairy lights wrapped around the fig tree. Our photographer Romana will ensure that the essence of your captured with ease and beauty.
For anyone considering an elopement with us, whether they wish to celebrate with family and friends or just with your witnesses present, then we wholeheartedly recommend our ‘Simple Elope’ option. A special, small, intimate wedding that is inspired by personality and not dictated by tradition. A special day just for the two of you, just the way you want it.
