Shannon & Matt

St Mary's by the Sea & The Sugar Wharf

From the very first email, I knew that Shannon & Matt were something special.. they were warm, witty, and effortlessly kind in a way that forms an instant friendship. That same energy carried through to every person who stood beside them, a reflection of the love they’ve built and the community around them.

When their day finally arrived, it unfolded exactly as you’d expect.

Heartfelt, joyful, and deeply genuine.

They exchanged vows at the iconic St Mary’s by the Sea, before celebrating into the evening at the breathtaking Sugar Wharf, surrounded by the people who mean the most.

When two of the nicest humans you've ever met

Shannon started the day with her girls at the beautiful Oaks Resort Port Douglas 


where they shared a sun drenched morning being pampered and styled by two of FNQ's most talented hair & make-up artisits Make-up by Carly B & Shannon from Inner Goddess Hair

The famous St Mary's by the Sea

was classily styled by the gorgeous team from PD Weddings and Hire, with blooms by Floral Edge.

Creating the perfect venue for these love birds to say their I do's in front of a small collection of their closest friends and family.  

After a beautifully crafted, tear-jerking ceremony

led by the beautiful celebrant Andrea Allumay, Shannon and Matt slipped away for a relaxed portrait session, making the most of the stunning nearby locations. 

After soaking up the last of the golden light


we made our way back to the reception just in time for cocktail hour, with  the celebrations already in full swing and a night of dancing ahead.
