Modern Rustic Wedding - Polka Dot Bride

There is a beautiful feel to this modern rustic wedding of Jenna and Nick. Marrying at the ever popular Stones of the Yarra Valley, Jenna and Nick wanted a day that was all about family and friends. They chose Image Eight Photography to capture their wedding day.

The bride chose a gown by Catherine R Couture, noting, "The day started off with us both getting ready with our friends and family, and was such a easy going morning, out for breakfast and then getting primped and prepared, whilst enjoying some champagne. Then all of a sudden the photographer and videographer arrived and it all happened so fast. It was time to get dressed and go!

The last few minutes before we left the hotel were a bit hectic making sure we had packed everything we could possibly need just for just in case situations. The car ride to the chapel was actually a lot of fun and a nice moment to just enjoy and I just kept saying "lets do this!" I was pumped."

"When we got engaged we didn't want anything too over the top and weren't planning anything too spectacular until we saw Stones of the Yarra Valley for the first time and both fell in love with the rustic charm and beauty of the venue and its surrounds. We knew it was perfect straight away."

"I didn't really get nervous until the chapel doors opened and I had to walk, but I just kept looking at Nick, I didn't notice anyone else in the room."

"Our wedding was based around friends, family, love and lots of laughter. We had personal touches such as our dog 'Buddy' acting as the ring bearer, readings from friends and family. I also walked down the aisle to Nick's cousin playing a guitar solo."

"After the ceremony it was just like a dream. Like the best party you have ever been too and it's all for you! I remember walking into the barn and seriously being shocked by how amazing the place had been styled and thinking oh my god it looks like something out of magazine! We danced the night away and left in a shower or sparkles and could not have been happier!"

Jenna and Nick worked with Ruffles & Bells to style the wedding, the bride remembering, "Hiring a stylist was definitely something I would recommend to other brides as it really takes the stress out of setting up props and styling pieces as the girls not only take all the props to the venue but also pick it all up for you the next day, allowing you to remain in your wedded bliss the day after! We had a close friend Casey from Tillda Flowers as our florist, and Rita from Blooming Brides to create a stunning and giant hanging centrepiece in the barn which took absolutely everyone's breath away including the groom!"

The White Tree performing led to a very active dance floor, the bride tells, "The White Tree band performed at the ceremony and reception. The White Tree also did an amazing wedding video which we are so glad we invested in. Photos are great but watching the video when we got home from our honeymoon was literally like reliving the whole day over again and so emotive."

Thank you for sharing your wedding with us Jenna and Nick! Thank you also to Image Eight Photography and Ruffles & Bells for sharing today's wedding!
