Jo and Santo’s wedding day unfolded like a dream, a beautiful blend of classic elegance and modern touches. Theirs was a love story meticulously captured, from the very first moments of getting ready to the smoke-filled dance floor at the iconic Vogue Ballroom.
A Day of Separate Preparations, United Hearts
The day began with a flurry of activity, yet a calm anticipation filled the air. Reuben headed over to Santo’s location, capturing the nervous excitement as the groom and his closest family prepared. Meanwhile, I had the pleasure of documenting Jo’s special moments getting ready at their home. Surrounded by her dearest friends and family, the atmosphere buzzed with laughter and well wishes. A particularly heartwarming detail was Jo’s choice of jewelry – her grandmother’s vintage pearl necklace, a beautiful heirloom adding a touch of sentimental elegance to her bridal look.
From Chapel Vows to Botanical Backdrops
The ceremony itself took place in the hallowed halls of the Victoria Police Academy Chapel, a setting steeped in history and tradition. Jo and Santo exchanged their vows with unwavering commitment, their love palpable in every glance and whispered word. As husband and wife, they emerged into the sunlight, ready to embark on their next adventure as a married couple.
Springvale Botanical Cemetery provided a stunning backdrop for their post-ceremony portraits. Lush greenery and vibrant blooms created a colourful canvas, where Jo and Santo’s love story unfolded further with each captured moment.
