Naomi and Mark’s cocktail style Manly Yacht Club Wedding

Their adorable twins stole the spotlight!

It was an absolutely glorious warm May afternoon for this Manly Yacht Club Wedding. The sun set perfectly over the water while the guests enjoyed their drinks and canapes. It was really picture perfect! Naomi and Mark decided to have a cocktail wedding on the balcony. They wanted everyone to feel relaxed and enjoy themselves. As you can see from the photos below, they certainly did!

Despite it being cocktail style, the wedding was definitely family-oriented. Their almost 3-year-old twin girls took centre stage during the ceremony. They walked down the aisle together as a family and the girls stayed close while vows were being exchanged. It was really sweet and they certainly kept the guests entertained!

Because Naomi and Mark wanted to focus on a relaxed atmosphere for their wedding they chose to spend only 10-15 minutes away from their guests for photos. If you’re not too scared of the camera then you don’t need a huge amount of time to get a handful of lovely portraits. My aim is to help you feel comfortable so we can capture these portraits as quickly as possible so you can head back to your guests!

Naomi and Mark chose to have their day covered for four hours which included a little of the girls getting ready, the ceremony, congrats, a big group photo and a few family photos, some portraits away from the guests and then lots of mingling afterwards. We also snuck in a lovely sunset photo just before I left! It was important for Naomi and Mark to have their little family captured so they took me up on my recommendation to have an assistant help with the girls and capture additional moments.
