Sebastian and Jessica first met through mutual friends at a 21st birthday party seven years ago. When they first met, Seb noticed that Jess was contagiously bubbly – a girl who knew how to have fun. Jess noticed that Seb wasn’t interested in playing the tough guy. His heart was open, his nature was gentle and kind. From the iconic Fox Hotel at Southbank, they stumbled to the Pig and Whistle at Eagle Street, on the other side of the river, chatting as if they had known each other for years. Unfortunately, the security team decided that the evening should end at that point, and Jess and Seb lost sight of each other.
Some months later, Jess was wondering if Seb was still thinking of her. It turns out that he was, but needed some encouragement to make the first move. With the assistance of their mutual friends, the pair reunited, and picked up where they had left off, chatting easily as the hours raced by.They planned their wedding day at Bulimba Golf Club, an unpretentious little golf club on the Brisbane River.
The couple rounded up friends and family to set out the décor in the marquee at the golf club. Finally, their spare room at home was emptied of the vases, flowers, glow sticks and candles that had been accumulating there.
Sebastian and Jessica’s ceremony was so personal, with their sweet and humorous story being the focal point. The couple looked at each other so adoringly as I told their tale, with so many of the guests commenting afterwards that they really enjoyed those adorable moments.
Thanks so much to Tram and David who referred their friends to me – it’s so beautiful to reunite with such a lovely couple. I feel like I will always share a special bond with the couples whose wedding days I’m fortunate to share.
