brad and amanda 17th november 2007

welcome to the latest jetset wedding of keith-urban-rockstar-brad to nicole-kidman-glam-supermodel-amanda...this fantabulous celebration was a culmination of "boys from the bush" meets "that's amore"! a sun kissed ceremony at meelup beach, dunsborough and the largest reception ever successfully planned at broadwater dunsborough (complete with power blackout just for a little variety)...



the seriously good looking amanda...





and the ever so handsome brad...

this gown was simply to die for...more detail to follow...you'll love it!

every supermodel requires silver heeled stilettos - hang the sandy beach ceremony!

perfectly matching sparkly jewels...

and a complimentary summer bouquet...

a little tlc from mum...

what is a superstar wedding without three stunning bridesmaids!

this is brad and amandas delicious little man - eating an olive to soothe and calm like all good italian boys...

love this mirror image - perfect composition, lighting, mood and emotion - captured by kylie...new certified (and self-proclaimed) queen of the mirror image!

brad watching his lovely lady on her way down a petal strewn red carpet...

and man-oh-man - was he blown away...

the sweetest moment, just before the kiss...

and someone wants to know "what is all this fuss about and who made the mess with the rose petals?"

a few images on meelup beach...

then a quick visit to harwoods cottage where the stereo was turned up nice and loud and brad did his "groove thang"

the stud muffin himself...

now these bridesmaids had definately read the "manual" - rule #54 the bride must be primped and preened and fussed over...

how stunning is this lady...

who needs bridesmaids when you have a best man?..

but then they kinda look simply gorgeous when you sit them altogether...

the fellas brush up on rule #127, dont forget to worship your mate's new bride...

and then rule # 87 - bridesmaids must treat the groom like he is a rockstar - preferably with sincerity...

we arrive at broadwater for a few images in the garden...cheered on by invited guests up on the balconies...

and then on to a secluded corner near the bar for these most amazing shots - definately the winning images of the day...although taken by mike - they were completely (yes, i moved the lamps, the lounge, turned on lights, positioned the gown and the veil and the shoes and the jewels and the hair and the pose) set up by kylie and mike promptly stole the entire scene...but they are pretty damn fine "shared" images...amanda - you rock girlfriend...

while mike was busy boasting - i snuck upstairs to capture the striking reception...

we must be fairly persuasive with our couples, as we managed to convince brad and amanda to join us on the beach for these breath-taking images at sunset...

heres that look again from a man who can not believe that he is actually married to the exquisite amanda...

back up the beach we return to the reception (far out - i should be a size 8 with all this running around) and i spot this bouquet trinket which is very special to amanda...

i just love this image of amanda's mum - all relaxed and smiling after such a busy, eventful happy day...

dad and daughter dance...

now, here's the thing - apparently brad - the guy you have previously seen hugging and kissing and crooning and swooning - isnt a touchy feely kinda guy - yeah, i know - go figure. and apparently he's not a dancer either - well brad, (rockstar, stud-muffin, all round mr nice guy) you certainly had us fooled...

thanks to both families for treating mike and i as invited guests, we are always extremely grateful for such a kind gesture...

amanda and brad - you two are the genuine article - not to mention ridiculously good-looking...thank you for sharing your warmth, your laughter, your great friends, immensley funny family, and your stunning fashion sense with us...wishing you three many blessings on your journey together...

competition scoreboard - sneaky, under-handed, ruthless, mike wins with red wall images...
