NOTE —

If your blog post's featured images are fairly low resolution, you may want to delete the top image canvas. Your blog will still look gorgeous, but the top banner section looks best when you upload an image that's 2500px on the long side. You can also use our fave TinyJpeg to make them small so your blog posts still load quickly!

How to Plan a Wedding in 24 Hours

One of the best things about weddings, in my view, is the spontaneity. So imagine my joy when I was invited to photograph Nikki and Alistair’s wedding — the most spontaneous union I’ve ever captured. Alistair proposed on Sunday, a gorgeous dress was procured at Mariage Couture on Monday, rings were purchased, hair  and makeup was styled at Euphoria Studio, and vows were exchanged at the Clerk’s Office in Flemington on Tuesday afternoon. A lifetime of happiness to Alistair and Nikki! They head back to Okinawa, where Alistair is stationed with the Marines, any moment.
