Micro wedding at Rainforest Gardens, Mount Cotton
The couple chose a Wednesday afternoon for their wedding, and met their family at the gates of the gardens at 3pm. While gathered there, a pair of butterflies danced in the afternoon sun, a coincidental tribute to the butterfly tattoo on Tahlia’s decolletage. For James, wearing a suit was a first, and he looked very handsome in navy blue. Tahlia was lovely in a white lace gown with a fitted bodice and full skirt. She curled her hair and tied it back with a white lace bow.
As the clock struck 3pm, the couple joined hands and walked up the garden path to the ceremony area, followed by parents and siblings. They chose instrumental music by John Powell from the “How to Train your Dragon” soundtrack.
Tahlia and James took their places under the wooden arbour on the timber deck by the pond, shaded by towering palms. A fountain tinkled in the background. Their five guests sat upon timber chairs, enjoying the tranquil atmosphere of the gardens.
James and Tahlia requested a short and sweet ceremony, with just minimal trimmings. They were relieved that the ceremony was not as stressful as they had anticipated, and were soon delighted to hear that they were husband and wife.
Photographer, Will, soon put the couple at ease, and led them around the beautiful gardens for photos which will be treasured for years to come.
