My very first wedding at Mandalong Country Estate—and oh my gosh, what a way to kick things off! This venue had been on my bucket list for ages, and Kirsty & Robbie’s big day did not disappoint.
Their love story? Straight out of a rom-com! These two first met as shy teenagers in karate class (yep, karate!). Kirsty made the first move, sending Robbie a Facebook friend request. He took his sweet time accepting (a whole year—talk about playing it cool!), but when she finally messaged him about Star Wars—despite having only seen one movie—it totally worked.
They made things official at 17, tackling high school, long-distance love (Central Coast to Lake Macquarie), and even studying nuclear medicine together at Uni. For nearly five years, they made long-distance work before finally settling in Cronulla. Fast forward to their 6th anniversary—Robbie pulled off an iconic beachside proposal in Port Stephens, complete with a secret photographer. Absolute magic.
Their wedding day was just as incredible! They got ready at the big farm house onsite, which had the perfect setup to keep them from accidentally crossing paths before the ceremony.
With breathtaking bushland as their backdrop, they exchanged the sweetest vows, officiated by the lovely Kate Tyler Webber. And let me tell you—Robbie’s reaction to seeing Kirsty walk down the aisle? Cue the tears!
After some golden-hour magic for portraits in the stunning hill side paddock, it was time to party! And what a party it was!
Kirsty & Robbie, your day was an absolute dream to capture. Wishing you both a lifetime of love, laughter, and maybe a few more Star Wars marathons! 😉✨🥂
