Clara and Vince's dual wedding ceremonies took place at one the best Barossa Valley wedding venues I'm yet to photograph. Seppeltsfield Winery has all the rustic South Australian charm you could ask for. And considering the vibrant contrast of blended Chinese-Malaysian traditions against the vintage Australian wedding backdrop, it definitely made for an interesting and dynamic setting for this emotional wedding story to unfold. 

I always implore couples to make their wedding plans with their joint personalities and values at the core of each decision. And these guys, who have a passion for amazing food, wild dance parties and of course, family, did just that. Their wedding was absolutely a reflection of them. Clara and Vince are equally fun, genuine and beautiful souls... whose chemistry and passions align in such perfect splendor that it really made my job of documenting their love and celebration a truly amazing experience. 

Now, I don't often comment on the peripheral details of the wedding... BUT I absolutely have to mention how impressed I was by the collaborative efforts of their family and friends who combined many creative talents to pull off a truly unique and beautiful aesthetic for this wedding. Clara's sister Brenda, actually hand made the bridesmaids dresses (check out Alpha-Be the Label) and she still had enough energy to do Clara's make up on the day! Clara herself, painted all the calligraphy signage, and her brother Melvin is definitely going to be a recognizable  name in the music world someday! Vince's Dad, also painstakingly hand made the centre-piece branches and transported them all the way from Melbourne. And Vince and his sister Emily, folded the hundreds of tiny paper cranes that were scattered throughout the event, so they deserve a medal, or at least a hug.
