OUR WEDDING 2.0
Mar 27
2021
We invite you to be fully present. Please kindly turn off your phones and cameras prior to the ceremony and enjoy the special moment with us. We will happily share the photos that are captured on the day from our fantastic photographers.
Please be aware when considering outfit choices that the ceremony will be on grass followed by a stand up cocktail style reception in the Sussex Barn at Brickendon.
The weather for our first wedding date in 2020 was lovely - so fingers crossed 2021 is also kind to us! However we all know what Tassie weather is like, so please keep your eye on the weather leading up to the day to make sure you are prepared.
There will be seating options to rest your legs throughout the night. However, please make sure your footwear is appropriate to dance the night away!
