Micro wedding ceremony and macro wedding party at Mount Coot-tha

 Paris and Connor wanted the best of both worlds for their wedding day. The pair decided on an intimate ceremony with just their immediate family in the Botanic Gardens, and celebrated with a huge party with all their extended family and friends at the Summit Restaurant, Mount Coot-tha afterwards.

The pair contacted the team at Elope Brisbane to book their ceremony, opting to DIY their styling, and select just celebrant and photographer for their ceremony package. On a gorgeous winter afternoon, we met the couple at the Brisbane Botanic Gardens. The garden ceremony was simple, quiet, and relaxed, with the couple’s vows to each other being the highlight. Afterwards, the occasion was captured in beautiful photos surrounded by nature.



Paris looked stunning in a strapless gown, with a pearl necklace and her hair swept up. Connor was very handsome in a charcoal suit and white shirt – relaxed with no tie. The bouquet and boutonniere featured bright pinks and oranges.  The pair couldn’t stop grinning throughout the day.




After the ceremony and photos, the group made their way up to the top of Mount Coot-tha to enjoy their reception dinner. The celebrations included a dance floor and a tiramisu tower.
