Jessica and Patrick met on the dance floor of their local pub on a Christmas Eve, and when it came time to propose, Patrick recreated their first date right down to the car he was driving at the time. The goal of this beachside wedding in Australia was a relaxed kind of boho theme with endless fairy lights, and they celebrated their unity late into the night at the Chelsea Yacht Club.
Here's what Jessica had to say about their DIY decor…
The decor was a team effort. My mother sewed so many white cones for our white paper decoration — it took nearly a year to make! My mother-in-law made the delicious take-homes. My dad made the frames that held all our place cards. Quite a few other bits and pieces were created in some crafter-noon sessions with my bridesmaids.
Don't miss the bride's gorgeous dress, the groom's luscious hair, and the dance floor snacks I'm still thinking about…
