Photographing Arriele and Liam’s wedding at the Public Dining Room in Mosman was an absolute joy. The day couldn’t have been more perfect with abundant sunshine and those breathtaking views serving as the backdrop. Arriele and Liam were not just clients; they felt like friends from the moment we met, and our camaraderie was off the charts. Their wedding truly mirrored their down-to-earth and genuine personalities. We started the day on Rocky Point Island, where they poured their hearts out in their vows, surrounded by the beauty of nature. Later, in front of their closest 30 friends and family, they sealed their love at the Public Dining Room in Mosman. It was a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments, and I feel truly privileged to have been a part of it.

Tell me about your ‘The Beginning’

“Liam and I met through Bumble! After a few days chatting, we organised to meet. It was COVID days so we went for a walk since that was one of the only activities that you could go out of the house for. He picked me up and we spent a few hours walking along Cronulla beach.”

When and where did you get engaged?

“Ah! Technically, Liam hasn’t properly proposed yet LOL We decided to get married with the move and everything being so soon, but… I think sometime soon that will happen (fingers crossed)… I’ll let you know when it does.”

What style/theme have you chosen for your Public Dining Room Wedding?

“Intimate, simple and elegant.”

What are you most looking forward to on the day?

“Being pronounced husband and wife, and getting to have our first kiss! A lot of our guests are also flying in from outside New South Wales and Australia, and so it’s really special having everyone together for that day.”

Top Tips!

“Focus on you and what will make you both happy. We didn’t have a lot of time to prepare for our wedding compared to most, but it forced us to make do without all the fluff and spend money and effort on the things which really mattered to us.”

Testimonial

“Hayley was a dream! She helped ease my worries and gave me confidence I could count on her. During the actual wedding day, she was an absolute pro. My husband and I would’ve been lost without her. Proactive, prepared, thorough, and so, so talented. She did so much more for our wedding than just take photos. Our day was pretty low-key and didn’t have a lot of the glitz a wedding these days have, but what she captured was beautiful.” – Arriele & Liam
