The rain is definitely bucketing hard here in Hobart today so what better way to warm up and keep dry than looking at a beautiful summer wedding from last year!
Adam and Danielle were married on 22 January 2011 at Pooleys Vineyard in Richmond, followed by a reception at Catch Restaurant in Hobart. The talented Lisa Kuilenburg of LisaK Photography took all the beautiful photos on the day.
The couple tells us all about their wonderful day...
How They Met...
Adam and Danielle met through mutual friends at university.
The Proposal...
Adam took Danielle away for a surprise night at Cradle Mountain. The afternoon began with some relaxation time in the outdoor jacuzzi where the snow couldn’t have dropped at a more appropriate time making it a romantic moment to remember.
After some sightseeing it was time for tea and the walk to the restaurant provided the perfect time for the proposal with snow crunching under foot, a star lit sky and snow lightly falling. Adam pointed to the sky, encouraging Danielle to look at an imaginary shooting star, in order to buy enough time to drop to his knee and find the ring. A startled Danielle turned to find Adam propose, to which she replied “yes”.
The night could not have been more perfect until a standoff between two possums on the path to the restaurant turned sour and resulted in a quick dash the long way around. A minor hiccup in an otherwise perfect night!

The Wedding Day...
The theme for the wedding was black and white with bird and bird cage features.
Their entrance into the reception was a basketball 'take-off' of player introductions for the bridal party to the song, "Let's Get Ready To Rumble!". This not only provided quirky comical facts about each member of the bridal party but also allowed guests to create a guard of honour for the couple to dance through.
