Wedding at Cleveland Point Lighthouse, Brisbane

Wedding at Cleveland Point The Lighthouse

With a newborn baby in the family, Annaliese and Tom didn’t have a lot of spare time to organise a wedding. They tasked the award winning team from Pop Up Weddings Bayside with organising their entire wedding for them.


Their wedding day dawned a beautiful winter day, with the sun shining and a light breeze. With careful planning, high tide coincided with the ceremony time, and Moreton Bay was sparkling.
Steve set up a white hexagonal arbour and added the floral arrangement of green foliage and white flowers. A jute mat was set out to mark the ceremony space. White Americana chairs were set up for the guests.
Our groom, Tom, arrived at Cleveland Point, carrying the couple’s baby daughter, who snuggled into his chest. Tom looked very dapper in a suit and tie. The guests started to arrive and greeted Tom with hugs and well wishes.
Bride, Annaliese, arrived at the destination in a pale lemon convertible car. She stepped out on the arm of her dad, Andy, and followed flowergirl Evelyn down the aisle to “The Good Ones” by Gabby Barrett. And I think everyone who has ever met Tom would agree that he is definitely one of the Good Ones.
Annaliese looked breathtaking with her hair curled, wearing a stretch lace dress with a veil. The couple gazed at each other adoringly as Annaliese stepped up to the arbour and took Tom’s hands and held on to them tight.
The couple both wrote lovely vows to each other, promising to stand by each other’s side through anything that life throws at them.
After the ceremony, the guests tossed dried flower petals up as the couple walked back down the aisle together, ecstatic to be finally married.



The couple enjoyed some photo time by the Lighthouse as their guests made their way over the road to the gorgeous Lighthouse Restaurant, which looks out over the bay.
Congratulations to Tom and Annaliese from all the team at Pop Up Weddings. We hope you continue to look at each other that way for ever and ever.
