Sferas Wedding – Rita & Chad

Rita and Chad held their Sferas wedding on a lovely, if not a bit chilly day in late June surrounded by their closest family and friends!

They made use fo the on site chapel for their ceremony, with photos throughout civic park, before returning back for their Sferas wedding reception.

 

Preparation

When I arrived at Chad’s place of preparation, I was greeted by numberous pets and animals, including the most impressive collection of large, talking parrots who kept me company as I began taking photos of Chad’s groom accessories.

Chad’s groomsmen were running late a little, and Chad preoccupied himself running aorund the house a bit for a cat he had temporaly misplaced, which meant we had not much time left for photos before we had to head off to Sferas for Rita’s preparation.

Rita and her bridal party were being prepared in the largest room available at the Sferas Convention center. The room boasted a huge, curtained window suited for hanging the wedding dress on, only it has no view as it overlooks the main Sferas lobby.

As rita and her bridal party were being prepared with hair and makeup, my wife and I busied ourselves simply documenting what was going on. At one point we also popped downstairs to get a few shots of the reception setup.

Sferas Wedding Ceremony

The Chapel area of Sferas, hidden behind it’s main ballroom, and overlooking the nearby Civic park was Rita and Chad’s ceremony venue. The space alows for two rows of chairs set up with a grand piano and wall covered in green ivy as the backdrop.

Rita and Chad’s ceremony was a simple affair with heartfelt personal vows exchanged before sharing rings, and their first kiss.

Glamour Photos

After having everyone on the grass nearby for a group photo using the drone, Rita, Chad and their bridal party went for a little walk about Civic park for a few glamour photos. After I had taken a few with the bridal party, they wewre able to retire back into the warm Sferas building, while Rita, Chad and I went for a further walk across the street to the lovely weeping willow nearby for more photos.

I felt a bit bad having Rita walk all that way as the weather was getting a bit chilly, and it wasnt a short walk in a wedding dress!

Sferas Wedding Reception

Once photos were complete, and Rita had a bit of time for retouching makeup and having guests take their seats, Rita and Chad were announced as husband and wife at their Sferas wedding reception.

The  highlight of the night was definitely the dry ice first dance they had organised, while everyone seemed to also have a blast with my photobooth which I had set up in the morning.

Festivities ran late into the night, culminating with a bouquet toss, and garter throw before the newly wedded couple exited under a traditional archway made from their guests.

Civic Park Wedding – Susie & Ricky

  • Susie & Ricky

    Civic Park Wedding

    Bride leading groom on merry jape

It was a gloriously sunny day for Susie and Ricky as they hosted their Civic park wedding ceremony up on the hill above the maid grassy area nearby the Sferas Convention Center. They had originally planned to hold their reception only to put that on hold for later in the year until the COVID threat had quietened a bit.

Despite their little postponement of their reception, this happy couple still made the most of their shorter day with gusto!

Preparation

Ricky and his best man was prepared at the family home nearby. I arrived as they were playing a few last video games – which is always a great start, and then we moved on to more usual things like cleaning mirrors while trying to tie ties 🙂

Susie and her bridal party were prepared at one of the suites at the Sfera’s Convention center in which they had a grand view over where their Civic Park wedding ceremony was being set up overlooking the little creek area at the center of the entire park.

I arrived just as the girl’s makeup was almost done, which is great as then I’m able to make the use of the time taking phtos of things like dresses and shoes, etc.

Susie spent some time in during her preparation on two special moments – the first being a first look with the handsome man who walked her down the aisle, and the other with her flower girl – to which Susie gifted a fluffy white cat toy, which the little girl wasn’;t overly keen on at first but came around to it 🙂

Civic Park Wedding Ceremony

Susie and Ricky’s Civic Park wedding ceremony took place under the shade of the gum trees that line the dry creek area that adorns the top of the path way that wiggles it’s way through the center of the park – while lined with grass. The path connect’s the Tea Tree Plaza shopping center and Sferas.

Being set up here was wonderful as Susie and Ricky’s guests were therefore protected by the harsh sun, as opposed to the poor other wedding ceremony that took place on the main grass area just after theirs.

Their ceremony itself was a lovely simple affair, with private in jokes based on a variety of popculture references which made a different small portion of their congregation chuckle at different times throughout.

Glamour Photos

After coaxing everyone out on the grassy hill for a group photo using the drone – so as to socially distance – We made use of the rest of Civic park for a few glamour photos before heading across the road to the Solandra Wetlands for a few more.

As the sun was super bright, my main goal throughout was simply to use as much shade as possible to bring some sun flares coming through and making the scene super pretty. It was however fairly early in the day – so this was a little tricky, but the beautiful surrounds of the foliage available still made for some lovely shots.

Sunnybrae Estate Wedding – Cristina & Thanasi

It was a gloriously sunny day for Cristina and Thanasi’s Sunnybrae Estate wedding at the beginning of October!

This lovely couple shared the day with family and friends and their personalities shone like a shining diamond all day! From a George Costanza photoshoot, immaculate grass and dancing all night with plenty of drink – their day was a joy to be a part of!

Preparation

I started the day at Thanasi’s place of preparation after having set up their photobooth at the Sfera’s Function center ready to go for their reception. His entourage were all there too along with Thanasi’s parents and some friends.

The atmosphere was laid back and fun filled where the boys shared some nice liquid courage and even goaged Thanasi into a bit of a risqué Seinfeild-inspired photoshoot which was a bit of fun! We even got to enjoy a bit of Thanasi’s father’s musical skills where he gave s an impromptu solo!

Cristina was prepared similar to Thanasi alongside her bridal party, family and friends, also with a similar laid back attitude to the whole experience.

A part of the birdal party preparation was cracking open a champaigne bottle on Thanasi’s immaculately curated lawn which I hope diddnt harm it much! Certainly looked as though that lawn was a labour of love!

Sunnybrae Estate Wedding Ceremony

Being a photographer at a Sunnybrae Estate wedding is an experience I had not had for a very long time – it’s one of those wedding venues where it’s super popular for a number of different reasons – only to simply not book a wedding there for years and years – in my case it was around 7 years since I last shot a Sunnybrae Estate wedding, and the place had changed quite a bit since then! Funny thing is that I’ve now shot 2 here in the past few months!

The day was super sunny which made for Cristina and Thanasi’s choice of ceremony locations slightly unfortunate as they were forced to look back into the sun all ceremony, but at least their guests were in the shade thanks to the beautiful covering of trees available on the northern side of the ‘Marquee’ reception venue on the Sunnybrae estate grounds.

Their wedding ceremony was a short and simple one with Cristina and Thanasi sharing vows and their celebrant giving us all some amusing stories of their relationship up until this point.

Glamour Photos

After having all Cristina and Thanasi’s guests  move out to the open grassy area for a drone group photo, and then moving back out of the beating sun for smaller group shots – we then had a bit of a walk around the Sunnybrae grounds for some glamour photos making use of the sun shing through the lovely green foliage on display about the place.

We then head towards the city for a bit of a bite to eat at the fun APOPTECA bar – formally known as ‘the Apothecary’. The surrounds in here made for an interesting backdrop to some of their photos, while also using the famed black doorway of the nearby ‘Draling Building’.

Sferas Function Center Wedding Reception

Cristina and Thanasi’s Wedding reception took place in the Sfera’s Marquee function room, which boasts a huge area for large weddings and is always immaculately decked out with flowing silks, white sheets and general wedding prettyness!

Short of a bit of a hiccup with my photobooth early in the night – which I thank Cristina and Thanasi immensely for their understanding and patience, their night was a blast to be a part of! Ending far too soon with everyone on the dance floor ready to continue on until the early hours of the morning if the venue let them! I very much enjoyed the break out of Shalalala AUFC towards the end!

Sferas Reception Center Wedding – Liz & Dan

  • Liz & Dan

    Sferas Reception Center Wedding

    Inside a weeping willow

The Sferas Reception Center was the backdrop for Liz and Dan’s family oriented wedding on a sunny day in early November. They made use of Sfera’s little on-site chapel and went for a walk in the nearby reserve for their photos before retiring to the Starlight room also at Sferas for their raucous reception party! The dance floor was hardly seen all night!

Preparation

Before the big day though, Dan and his boys got ready at the family house, along with Dan’s beloved dogs who wanted to be in all the photos too! Once the boys were dressed we went for a bit of a walk around a nearby park for some glamour photos while looking all smart 🙂

Liz and her bridal party were being prepared in a room at the Largs Bay hotel. I always love heading here for preparation photos as the historic nature of the hotel is a fantastic backdrop for preparation photos, and allow for some grand scenes both on the balcony,. and using the awesome staircase rising through the middle of the building.

Sferas Reception Center Wedding Ceremony

The Sferas Reception Center’s little on site chapel is large enough for small to medium sized congregations, and for Liz and Dan’s family oriented ceremony, it was the perfect size. As it was a nice, sunny day the little room was illuminated beautifully and the sweet little ceremony was over before I’m sure they knew it! 😀

Glamour Photos

Once the family photos were out of the way, we began the glamour photos by having the bridal party follow us through the manicured gardens right next door to the Sferas Reception Center, before heading across the road to the nearby reserve, where it’s turning out to be one of my favourite trees for having wedding photos shot under! There’s a huge, wonderfully shaped weeping willow right across the road, a short walk away from Sferas that I just love using whenever I’m shooting a wedding in the area!

Sferas Convention Center Wedding – Michelle & Matt

I was happy to be a part of Michelle and Matt’s wedding at the Sferas Convention Center as their wedding photographer on a beautiful early October day! I was asked to cover their wedding for 4 hours, while staying the night manning the SvenStudos photobooth, which got a good workout throughout the night!

Sferas Convention Center Wedding Ceremony

The Sferas chapel in behind the Convention center complex was the location of their wedding ceremony. It’s a long, thin room designed to be fairly intimate and cozy, with a grand piano and floral decor at it’s head. The ceremony was a short and sweet affair, highlighted by Michelle and Matt’s adorable little daughter who was smiling the entire way through, along with an entertaining episode where the best man almost dropped the rings 🙂

After the group photos which were taken on the grassy area directly beside the Convention Center, we used the rest of Civic Park for a few glamour photos before heading over the road to make use of the more rustic backdrops of weeping willows and long, unkempt grass. We also returned to the hanging lights in Civic Park later in the night for some nighttime shots.

Sferas Convention Center Wedding Reception

The Sferas Convention Center boasts multiple, large function rooms, and as it happened, they were using at least 3 of them on the same night as Michelle and Matt’s wedding reception. The room in which Michelle and Matt chose to hold their reception was my favourite room of the lot – the Studio. While it isn’t the largest, I like it a lot for the lovely curved windows overlooking the nearby park.
