:: Wedding Details - The Honeymoon ::

I have been very spoilt with weddings this year. So far I have been to three weddings, and have recently found out I will be back-up photographer for a dear friend's brother's wedding in May. Until then, the royal wedding has satisfied my wedding lust. Did you watch the royal wedding? Unfortunately I was travelling up north while it was being televised, but I have been Googling every detail I can ever since I came home! What were your favourite parts of the royal wedding? Is it wrong that I'm already imagining how adorable their children will be?

I received a call from our wedding photographer yesterday to say that our wedding album will be ready to pick up this Friday! I am beyond excited! I can't wait to share some professional photos with you all. In the meantime, I have some photos of our honeymoon in Melbourne. We adore Melbourne, it is a city full of culture and history, amazing food, incredible architecture, and out-of-this world shopping!

Melbourne is known for it's graffiti art decorating the cafe-filled lane ways between buildings. Far from looking grungy, it adds an artistic edge to otherwise upmarket cafes.

The last photo reminds me of an old-time movie set! It is a photo of the Flinders St train station.

This Sunday is Mother's Day. To celebrate how amazing our Mum is, we're going on a picnic (yay!). I hope the weather is on our side and that my Mum has a fantastic day. How are you celebrating Mother's Day? And to any mothers, what are you hoping to get for Mother's Day? My Mum always used to ask for good children, ha!

Happy Wednesday!

  6. For Mother's Day, I would love to be allowed to sleep in. Then I'd like to be served breakfast in bed and when I finally come downstairs... to find a clean and tidy kitchen!

    I'd love to visit Australia one day. Melbourne looks amazing!

  10. I watched the Royal Wedding! I loved when they first saw each other in the church, and their kisses on the balcony. Will blushed! So cute!

    Awesome photos, Dave. I've only been to Melbourne once and didn't see much. Hopefully I'll visit again someday!

    For Mother's Day we're having a family bbq. My Mum's just happy to be spending it with all of her children and JJ! :-D

  14. Thanks again for your awesome comment! I'm glad that I'm not the only one who is going through changes. And we should do a class or two together. I will look into it more (and whether I can even afford them at the moment). But I will definitely let you know what is happening with it. xx
