Elise and Julian - An Urban Wedding

Elise and Julian couldn’t believe it when they met each other after being set up by their parents, and they actually hit it off! Elise’s Dad was right, Julian was kind, handsome and successful, and the rest was history. Julian proposed at her favourite restaurant, with views of the Melbourne skyline behind him. 

They chose a city centre venue with beautiful views of the lake, it was perfect for them. Their traditional-yet-edgy theme worked brilliantly, keeping the main colour scheme very neutral but adding touches of green flora to give it a modern spin. Their seamless day was created with the help of a wedding planner, and Elise would definitely recommend using one. It stopped her from stressing out about the little things and helped her to enjoy the planning process.

Elise describes her wedding as everything she wanted it to be, her favourite part was undoubtedly checking out everyone's dance moves at the end of the day.
