SERGEANTS MESS WEDDING

Ash and Grace’s wedding at Sergeants Mess, Mosman was a beautiful reminder that some of the most meaningful moments happen when you embrace the unexpected. Set against the stunning backdrop of Sydney Harbour, their day was touched by gentle rain, adding an intimate and romantic atmosphere to the celebration.

The ceremony was heartfelt and emotional, shared with close family and friends who gathered to witness Ash and Grace begin this new chapter together. Despite the rain, the mood remained warm and joyful, with quiet smiles, laughter, and meaningful glances exchanged throughout the ceremony.

Inside Sergeants Mess, the reception felt cozy and welcoming. Guests enjoyed a delicious meal, heartfelt speeches, and moments of genuine connection as the sound of rain softly accompanied the celebration outside. The indoor setting created a sense of closeness that made the evening feel especially personal.

Ash and Grace’s wedding was a testament to resilience, love, and embracing life’s beautiful unpredictability. It was an honour to capture their day through photo and film, a celebration defined not by the weather, but by the strength of their love and the people who surrounded them.

LOVE NOTES

Raquelle, Ash and I are so blown away by your work!!!

The whole gallery is more than we could've ever imagined, and we can't believe it is actually us in the photos. We will cherish these moments you've captured so beautifully for the rest of our lives.

Thank you for braving the wind and rain on the day and dealing with our big crazy families. You made the experience fun and helped in making the day run efficiently.

One of our favourite photos was from the impromptu outdoor shoot after the ceremony. The angles, the motion, the details - obsessed!!!
