Anna's gown had an elegant mermaid silhouette & floral embroidery by Pronovias.
Our crew found some interesting urban backdrops for the dress.
Anna's shoes were by Badgley Mischka ....ahhh...dreamy shoes!
Anna's brother, a graphic artist, created the invitations. The rounded edges were chosen to tie in with the elegant vintage theme on the day.

Anna's bridesmaids wore romantic full length champagne coloured chiffon dresses with sequin embellishments by Myer.
A spectacular entrance down the interior staircase at Elizabeth Bay House.
Our senior photographer, Glen captures some stunning moments throughout the day for SugarLove. Anna told "Bride to Be" magazine that video was one of the hardest decisions to have or not. "When i found White Designs and their impressive portfolio of superstar wedding coverages, I knew they'd do the best job", says Anna.
A staircase fit for the glamourous long veil that Anna chose on her day. 
I do, I do, I do love you. The sweetness of Anna & Quang just post ceremony.
The brides bouquet was made up of pink, champagne & white David Austin roses by Blissful Flowers.
Rain could not dampen the spirits on the day. The bridal party make their way to the reception at Quay Restaurant on Sydney Harbour.
Good times during the bridal party shoot in the Rocks.
The most perfect background and delicate light appeared after the sun shower.
Anna sourced letter stamps from Kikki K as a modern take on the traditional guestbook for signings at the wedding. Brown recycled paper was available to use which they plan to make into a lovely book in the future. The welcome table featured a cute "Just Merry & Married" sign, vases of David Austin roses, vintage cards and a cute photo of the couple from their first Valentines Day.

The beautifully illustrated menus were titled - Eat, Drink & Be Merry
An old fashioned microphone, yummy dessert & the wedding program. Titled the "Q&A Times", Anna & Quang provided their guests with all the details of the day along with some sweet stories including the proposal moment that took place in Cimbrone, Italy.
The First Dance was stamped for future guest book designs.

A perfect January evening looking across the harbour at the Sydney Opera House. Living in London now to show their guests the best Sydney had to offer was an important part of their wedding choices.

HIDDEN CEREMONY GEM
Always love it when we discover a new location for a wedding in Sydney. As anyone that has visited our showroom (or) read our blog will know - i have a not so secret obsession with everything Hampton Style. You can imagine how excited we were to cover our first wedding at what can only be described as the closest to a Martha's Vineyard style venue in Sydney...introducing....the Breakfast Point Community Hall.
The word "community hall" really does not capture the essence of the buildings' design or interior appeal. Our gorgeous clients Cynthia & Jonathan below were smitten with the location (and each other!!) and so are we...looking forward to our next visit to Breakfast Point.

HAPPY RESTING
Dont forget the little ones at your wedding. A nice comfy pillow or colour themed cushion is a welcome resting spot. We love this moment from Annie & Paul's wedding at Bradleys Head, Mosman just after their "i-do".

REAL WEDDING - STEFANIE & MARC
With all the excitement of our destination wedding month in September we ran out of time to post full stories on all the gorgeous weddings that have appeared over the past few months. Here is our wedding with Stefanie & Marc in the Southern Highlands as featured in Wedding Style Guide.
The first time we met Stef was full of special surprises. Her wedding dress came from Baccini & Hill who formerly occupied our very own building in Woollahra before we moved in throughout May 2009. A sign that hiring SugarLove was meant to be and a love for our natural, elegant style was perfect to compliment her summer garden cocktail party.
The simplicity of natural green florals was designed by Rococo Flowers.
Stef & Marc arrived for their ceremony on a gorgeous black vespa.
The wedding took place at a private residence in Bowral. The natural settings were perfect for our photo shoot. We loved the wildflowers, wooden swing and nature walks.
The historic property, chic black vespa and guest sharing a drink.
Our warmest congratulations to Stef & Marc. Thank you for choosing SugarLove to cover your day. We wish you a lifetime of chic and fun filled moments together, Leigh x

Simple personal decorations throughout the garden included glass balls, white roses & ribbon hanging from the rustic wooden.
Tables were dressed simply in crisp white linens, black lanterns and brown paper/twine wrapped around baby blue flowers and set out around the white pebbled entry drive.
