Cheree and Mitchell's main goal for their wedding was to have a simple, elegant celebration with their nearest and dearest. Because they live in Sydney but have family in Cape Town, this meant not one, but two fabulous ceremonies and receptions! They brought photographer extraordinare Jonas Peterson in to capture both. From Sydney's iconic Opera House, to a natural pine forest, Cheree's couture gown, and the sweet tea towel favors, everything reflected the couple's interests, passions, and places they call home.
