The wedding was amazing! So glad we managed to get the time off :) We spent Thursday and Friday travelling - since we only did a road trip to Cairns 3 years ago, we didn't stop to do any sight seeing along the way.
We were up at 5am on Saturday to start getting ready for the sunrise wedding ceremony, which was on the beach at Palm Cove. It was a lovely, relaxed ceremony - the bridal party all kicked their shoes off before walking down the aisle, to stand barefoot on the beach. Chris & Cassie managed to get halfway through their vows before it started to shower, so we all ran across the road to a hall where they finished the ceremony. After the ceremony the sun came out, so lots of professional group and casual photos, before the bridal party went down to the beach for photos.
Craig and I next to the bridal car - how cool is this stretch Hummer?!?!
While the bridal party where getting photos done, all the guests went to the champagne breakfast reception. Champagne by this gorgeous pool, then a delicious buffet breakfast. After breakfast we socialised and a few more photos :)
We had a relaxed had a nap during the day, then got ready for the evening reception at a different resort. Started with drinks and canapes by the pool, then into the restaurant for dinner, speeches, cutting the cake, bridal waltz and socialising :) The wedding cake and cupcakes were ice cream cakes - how different & cool is that?!!?
I love the idea of this "wish tree" where guests could write wishes or advice for the bride & groom :)
We were up early the next morning to slowly make our way home again - we even got to cath up with Bec and the kids on our way through to Rocky :)
