The Wedding of Chelsea & Jacob
Chelsea and Jacob celebrated their beautiful wedding in Brisbane at Victoria Park, a heartfelt gathering that blossomed amidst the elegance of the Courtyard and Garden Marquee.
Tell us about your journey together, from how you met, to what the proposal was like!
Jacob and I both worked for the same company, however had never met one another until our work created a work football team! From there, sparks flew and we had a strong connection on and off the field. We still play in the same mixed comp today! We had been together for about 5 years before he proposed. He decided to propose on his 30th birthday (so he never forgets the date) and we got married the day before his 31st. It was a beautiful proposal along the rocks by a beach whilst we were away camping with his family.
What does marriage mean to you?
Marriage for us means loving one another unconditionally and growing together, both in life and age!
What (besides the obvious “I do” was your favourite part of your wedding?
Our whole day was absolutely perfect, but our favourite part was having ALL our family and friends together!
What traditions, new and old, did you incorporate into your wedding and why?
We did something blue, new, old, borrowed. My family also sang a song after my dad’s speech to represent part of my culture.
Tell us about your decorations and wedding styling – did you incorporate anything new/ a theme?
We did a garden theme as we were in the Garden Marquee and thought it would be the best fit! It was stunning, we did sage favour cookies for the guests and had a live band!
What’s the best piece of advice you can give other brides to be?
Stress less about the little finer details! All the love and fun you have throughout the day trumps everything! Take in every moment as much as you can because the day just flies.
We’re so thankful we were able to be part of your special day!
Why did you choose Victoria Park and would you recommend our venue to other couples getting married?
We chose Victoria Park as it was absolutely stunning, and very good value for money. It had been recommended by another friend and the process seemed really simple as the customer service team were very responsive.
I would absolutely choose Victoria Park again, everything was amazing. Our family and friends have been to many weddings over the last couple of years but we had so much good feedback saying the food at ours was by far the best!
