Embark on the captivating journey of Stephanie and Irin’s wedding, a heartfelt celebration of love that blossomed within the stunning beauty of Victoria Park’s Garden Marquee.

Tell us about your journey together, from how you met, to what the proposal was like!

We’ve come a long way from when we first met 8 years ago through mutual friends. We were holidaying in New Zealand, and Irin was obsessed with finding a clear night sky. Unfortunately, it was cloudy most nights, but we had such a great time regardless, so I didn’t understand why he was so stressed. That was until a clear night finally appeared, and he proposed to me under the stars with a light-up ring box! I think I stood there in shock for a good five minutes!

What (besides the obvious “I do” was your favourite part of your wedding?

We had lion dancers as our surprise entertainment, and they came rolling in during the middle of our first dance. Our guests thought it was amazing, and personally, it was great to give them a break from my horrible dancing!

Tell us about your decorations and wedding styling – did you incorporate anything new/ a theme? What did you choose for your wedding entertainment and guest favours?

We wanted a light and airy theme, so opted for white with greenery, Our dress code was black tie, so the guests looked absolutely stunning in contrast to the white décor.

What’s the best piece of advice you can give other brides to be?

Everything won’t be exactly as planned, but what’s most important is that you take a step back and fully enjoy what will be one of the best days of your life. Blink and you’ll miss it!

Would you recommend Victoria Park to other people getting married?

We definitely would. Our planner and function manager were incredibly helpful and made the whole day run smoothly. We knew that we could contact them any time we had a question, and they responded very quickly.
