Sunny and Adam decided to honor the excitement and unpredictability of love with an adventurous elopement at Erskine Falls. With the natural surroundings serving as every bit of wedding décor necessary for their day, the bride and groom’s fashion choices couldn’t have been lovelier: Sunny wore a long-sleeve lace gown by Mariana Hardwick paired with a fresh floral crown by Pomp and Splendour, and Adam wore a cerulean suit by MJ Bale. We’re so thrilled that the couple hired both Humdrum Films and Fred + Hannah to capture the day through both film and photography, as both resulted in impossibly beautiful pieces of art that the newlyweds will cherish forever.
The Couple:
Sunny and Adam
The Wedding:
Erskine Falls, Lorne, Australia
The Inspiration:
Well we wanted our day to be a happy and relaxed one. We refused to worry about the weather and anything else beyond our control, although we were blessed with a magical Melbourne day. I didn’t really spend too much time looking for inspiration, we knew what we wanted it was just a matter of finding the perfect location and vendors.
The Moments:
Adam: Turning around and seeing Sunny for the first time as she walked on the rocks towards me, she looked stunning and I couldn’t wait for her to be my wife.
Sunny: While I was saying my vows. We both wrote very raw, heartfelt vows and I was really struggling to get through mine. At one point I got overwhelmed with emotions thinking about my lost loved ones and I became very upset but having Adam there telling me that I was amazing and he was so proud of me and that he was there for me and he was going to help me through this and be there for me for the rest of our lives really helped me to get through, all whilst wiping my tears away…there is no way I could have done it without him.
The Couple Recommends:
Each one of our amazing vendors went above and beyond in their own way. Fred and Hannah work with us on our engagement shoot also so we felt very comfortable with them on the day. They also did some amazing ground work and hunted down all the right spots to take our portraits for the wedding to ensure that no time was wasted on the big day. We realise how much time they saved us and really when you see the portraits you can see why they are so good at what they do, the backdrops are breathtaking.
Lindsay let us have 100% freedom with our ceremony while giving us some great pointers for the big day. Without her suggestions I would have felt quite lost and our ceremony would not have been the way it was if not for her. She is a truely special person and we will never forget her help and compassion on our day, a rare gem when it comes to celebrants these days.
The boys are Humdrum deserve a medal to be honest. They not only made us relax on the day and feel as though they were not present at all (in a good way of course) therefore helping us to feel a lot less pressure and relaxed as well, but they have spent months tirelessly editing our film to make it the magical film it is. We continue to watch it over and over and we are so in love with you. They have mange to capture us just as we were on our day, happy and relaxed.
Our family and friends are so in love with our video and photos and we are so grateful to our team for making our wedding dreams becoming reality
