22.01.2022 Karla and Blake were #marriedbymin down at Wollongong beach in front of their closest friends and family today. Another small and intimate wedding filled with love and laughter. Mr and Mrs Merlo are finally husband and wife! What a great bunch of vendors on hand to bring it all together

21.01.2022 Up to 20 come June 1st

21.01.2022 Flashback to my last wedding before Owen was born. He came just after the ring exchange, jokes! It was two weeks later . . Brittany and Lukes love story started as a high school crush and ended in Happily ever after. Thanks to Lucy for capturing this @translucent_photography and being on standby to be my midwife.

21.01.2022 Can't believe yesterday was another year! Happy anniversary @savdj_ and I hope Dylan appreciated you celebrating his bucks instead of taking me out for some fine dining

21.01.2022 In 2018 we lost one of our favourite humans Jae Haydon. Two years on we celebrate with his paddle out tribute. Love you and miss you everyday.

21.01.2022 Here's to the weekend!

20.01.2022 It is our great sadness to inform you that the Kangaroo Valley Bush Retreat has been severely damaged in the bush fire disaster which passed through Kangaroo Va...lley over the weekend. We ended 2019 on such a high, winning the Australian Bridal Industry Academy’s award for ‘Best Wedding Ceremony Venue' in NSW and only weeks later are faced with this devastating event. All of our staff, guests and suppliers are safe and we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all the Fire & Rescue, NSW Rural Fire Service and Emergency Services who worked with us to evacuate and tried so hard to protect our beautiful retreat. We will be in touch personally with all of our booked clients today. We would like to thank everyone who has sent us messages of concern and we really appreciate your ongoing support. There will unfortunately be no weddings hosted here for the moment and we will make further announcements as soon as we are in a position to do so. Kangaroo Valley Bush Retreat is a unique and special place treasured by many and it’s definitely our intention to have our wedding venue returned back to its place of natural beauty. Sincerely, From all the KVBR team.

15.01.2022 Love Me When I’m Old by Bee Rawlinson . Love me when I’m old and shocking Peel off my elastic stockings Swing me from the chandeliers... Let’s be randy bad old dears. Push around my chromed Bath Chair Let me tease your white chest hair Scaring children, swapping dentures Let us have some great adventures Take me to the Dogs and Bingo Teach me how to speak the lingo Bone my eels and bring me tea Show me how it’s meant to be Take me to your special places Watching all the puzzled faces You in shorts and socks and sandals Me with warts and huge love-handles As the need for love enthrals Wrestle with my damp proof smalls Make me laugh without constraint Buy me chocolate body paint Hold me safe throughout the night When my hair has turned to white Believe me when I say it’s true I’ve waited all my life for you

11.01.2022 Bruschetta" - Nick Harkaway . Find someone who eats bruschetta: That’s ‘broo-SKET-uh,’ not ‘brushetter,’ a slender piece of ciabatta toasted and brushed with garlic and oil and covered in fresh tomato and basil the chunks inevitably fall off the bread and the olive oil runs over your lips and down your chin. . The whole thing is delicious, deeply physical and delightfully undignified, and someone who can eat a real bruschetta is someone you can love and who can love you. ... . Someone who pushes the thing away because it’s messy is never going to cackle at you toothlessly across the living room of your retirement cottage or drag you back from your sixth heart attack by sheer furious affection. . Never gonna happen. For that, you need someone who isn’t afraid of a faceful of olive oil. . Find someone who has books: And not just a dozen or two, but books by the kg, dragged home in bulging plastic bags from a faraway church sale. . Because someone who can see the glory in this in getting your knees dirty scraping through crates for a withered spine and a hint of plot that’s someone who understands that a bad day stands zero chance against a good story, that’s someone you want to lock down asap, because if you're going to spend a life with someone, it better be someone who can tell that life well, someone with dirty knees. . Find someone who laughs: And I mean LAUGHS, in all caps, as in HAHA, not hehe. Find someone who guffaws, who bellows, who at the slightest hint of humour sounds like a hyena choking on a kazoo. . Don’t go for someone who'll let slip an austere chuckle every once in a while. Find someone who loses it on the regular, loses it so spectacularly that they have to sprint for the loo. Find someone who doesn't quite make it. . Find someone who laughs so hard that the joke is soon forgotten because the laugh is funnier anyway. That's marriage material, right there. And you can't have that that with a hehe. For that, you need a HAHA . @thelittleloves_sarahkennedy

10.01.2022 Ms Berejiklian also announced wedding and corporate event numbers would be capped at 150 people and they must be seated and there can be no dancing, singing or mingling. Damn COVID!!!!!!

10.01.2022 Tinnielle loves how you inspire her to take more adventures and live freely. She can’t wait to spend the rest of her life with you, to start a family, to grow old together, and to do all the cool things in life together. More importantly, Tinnielle knows happiness because of you and the joys of having someone else pack her lunch every day!

10.01.2022 Meet Mr and Mrs Stone, who were #marriedbymin! Now Mat and Tatjana had been wanting to get married for a while but weren't overly keen on an extravagant wedding. The idea of eloping suited these two to a T! So they asked @ainsleeburkephotography to capture their day, @be_designed to style and their good friends Ally and Cole if they could use their property @warreenhomestead. It all came together beautifully.

09.01.2022 Most couples who have been planning a wedding during pandemic times have opted to either postpone their plans, or continue with their plans and adapt to whateve...r restrictions necessary for their day to go ahead. Tahlia & Kieran... well, they undertook option 2, but actually brought their wedding forward! Initially scheduled for February 2021, they scaled back their wedding to an intimate celebration of 15, all comprising of family only and were married today in what was a beautifully overcast day in seaside Kiama. The rain held, the conditions were perfect, and their new wedding date couldn't have suited them better. With a few wedding day nerves, they were soon subsided when they were hand in hand at the alter, where they were married by Merinda Richardson Civil Celebrant earlier this afternoon at The Sebel Harbourside Kiama. Today's date holds significance to them too, as today not only celebrates 4 years of their relationship, but also exactly one year of being engaged also! 12th November 2020 is now the 3rd milestone to follow on with the 12th November tales in their relationship, now signifying their marriage. www.translucentphotography.com [email protected]

07.01.2022 Tom and Shelley were #marriedbymin. These two beautiful humans, innocently dated in Year 7 for a few months, shared their first kiss, and then the rollercoaster of on and off again for a year and a half begun. Throughout it all, our couple remained friends. When it was finally the right time (Year 9 in 2005), Tom and Shelley came back together once again and have not parted ways since.All the best for your next adventure together now as husband and wife

07.01.2022 Big thank you to @themannproject who captured my little family this year. It was a lovely 43 degrees that day, and Sarah had been shooting since 8 am and stayed back to fit us in! .

06.01.2022 Who dis? . Is this Min at another wedding?? . Damn straight!!!... . Everyone meet Mr and Mrs Meuron . These two could not be more opposite. Alisha is the talker, and Corey is the listener. Alisha has a very specific, detailed memory, and Corey can’t remember what he did yesterday most of the time he has no chance in an argument! Picking a movie takes forever and date night can be a struggle because Corey is a night owl and Alisha likes to be in bed by 10:30 every night. Despite their differences, they do share the same values and dreams of their future together. Corey and Alisha also love each other unconditionally and would do anything to make each other happy.

06.01.2022 Cindy from @live_photography_australia capturing some goodness here! . On July 20, 2019, Rohan and Sam went on one of their classic picnics in the National Arboretum in Canberra. After a delicious meal, they walked to a place with a picturesque view. ... Rohan told Sam how amazing she was and that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her, and then he popped the question. Sam said yes and in turn,also exclaimed she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him and pulled out a ring as well. A beautiful story of a couple marching to the beat of their own drum.

03.01.2022 Some love stories don’t start as a romantic fairy tale. No, some start as two students in a tutorial for Assessment and Reporting at university. Rohan was sitting in front of Sam,and when the tutor announced that there would be group work, Rohan did not hesitate to whip around and ask Sam to partner up. ... From that day forward, Rohan strategically made sure he sat close as he could to Sam in their few overlapping classes just for the off chance more group work would take place. This was the beginning of something unique that started in that moment and brought their relationship to fruition.

02.01.2022 These two #marriedbymin on Sat Big shout out to @alanataylorphotography who not only is a killer behind the lens but can sew. She saved the day once again. Everyone needs an Alana on their day!! . . Heathcote high school is where Dylan and Jen’s love story began, but it wasn’t until December 12, 2008, that these two friends became more. While everyone was celebrating at a birthday party, Dylan asked Jen to be his girlfriend, and then the two snuck away from the party and... shared their first kiss. Together, Dylan and Jen, have a perfect balance and bring out the very best in each, and anyone who stays together throughout those rollercoaster teenage years has what it takes to go the distance . . #wedding #bride #groom #weddingphotography #weddingparty #weddingday #weddinginspo #marriedbymin #weddingvenue #firstdance #beautiful #dreamwedding #happynest #sharethelove #weddingdress #australianwedding #weddingau#weddingideas #weddingplanning #weddingdetails #weddingstyle #classicwedding #modernwedding @ Bonaira Native Gardens, Kiama See more
