Fairytales do come true – Magical Melbourne Wedding

11.27.14

Good Evening folks,

We have been hanging out to share this wonderful fairytale Melbourne wedding with you guys!
Zuhre and Oguzhan came to us as soon as they had gotten engaged and made sure they had us locked down for their date. We were very excited to be a very big part of their day. The day was jam packed with a host of festivities, (and a wonderful Henna leading up to which will be the subject of the next post) it was magical, wonderful, whimsical, romantic and all the pretty and beautiful words that come to mind about a Cinderella Wedding!

Here are some words from the bride and groom Zuhre and Oguzhan:

How we met:

We met through a friend and agreed to have coffee at Williamstown by the beach. We lost track of time and walked by the beach for an hour. It was almost like we had known each other for a decade, and felt very strongly about each other from that moment onwards.

The Proposal was beautiful! Oguzhan proposed on a Gondola in the Yarra River as the crown lights lit up he popped the question.

We wanted our wedding to be a fairytale. I wanted to be the princess and he was the prince. We had an amazing ceremony at the Werribee mansion, in our favorite spot. I wanted to come in with a Cinderella carriage, on a pink carpet, ‘yes pink’. With the view of a brilliant mansion, I said yes to the man of my dreams. Later we had dinner at our reception, with some traditional music and emotional speeches.

It was really important for us to find a venue that was a beautiful outdoor setting. I wanted it to have manicured gardens and history so Weribee Mansion was the perfect choice.

My most memorable moment was walking down the aisle with my dad, all my childhood memories came to my mind, I felt like I was now growing up.

This day was so special to us because we both knew our families were very proud of us. And we experienced the answer to our prayers which was finding each other.
