WEDSHED FEATURE: Claire & Nick - Pilu

A pandemic was no match for these two, who despite all the curveballs thrown their way (including their honeymoon accommodation burning down… yep), pulled off a very special and intimate day at Sydney beachfront wedding venue Pilu at Freshwater.

True to their own personal style, they kept things simple and elegant with their main focus being on good food (something Pilu is famous for) and Italian cocktails as a nod to their engagement in Positano.

They also relied on their close friends, photographer Jason Corroto and celebrant Tamara Louis, to put them in touch with some of Sydney’s best wedding vendors including Tillee Music who went above and beyond to create a day that Claire describes as “the most enjoyable experience”.

WEDSHED FEATURE: Jaimi-Lee + Dan

Jaimi-Lee and Daniel’s intimate NSW wedding at Summergrove Estate didn’t happen overnight. It was years in the making, with their original plans being hijaked by Covid. Luckily, Ellie from Summergrove Estate had their backs and as Jaimi-Lee explains, “from day one to year three she put up with us, Covid or not. She knew our vision for the day and she did everything in her power to make sure everything went as planned.”

In the end, their 34 person wedding was a dream. “We ate good food, drank unreal margaritas and laughed and cried ‘til the very end. It was magic.”
