Same Sex Wedding | Alice and Corinne at the Swan Brewery

A lifelong commitment and celebration of love between a couple, no matter what their gender, should be applauded. Richard and I knew we would have a great day photographing Alice and Corinne after our very enjoyable engagement session at Mullaloo Beach. What better way to welcome in the new year for their 01-01-11 wedding? (binary wedding according to Richard)

Alice and Corinne were married at the Swan Brewery, on the perfect green lawn overlooking the Swan River and Perth CBD. It was a hot summers day, we managed to borrow the huge umbrellas from the brewery for some much needed shade, especially for the English guests. Alice looked stunning as her mum walked her down the isle. The ceremony was very touching, and Richard and I were honoured to be a part of your special day.

The formal photos and bridal portraits were taken in the ground of the brewery. :) The reception was also held at the Swan Brewery, where the guest relaxed, and then later danced the night away.
