Michelle's Wedding - Coral Pink Convertible Dress
The first time I met Michelle (in person rather than via email) was the day she collected her Bridesmaid Dresses at the Lucy and Loo Studio.... the day before her wedding!
"...You're so calm and relaxed" I said.
"Well... why wouldn't I be?" She asked. "This is going to be fun!"

Courtney's Wedding - Navy Lucy and Loo Convertible Dress
It's rare that I have a chance to meet the Bride and the Groom. Usually it seems, bridesmaid dress shopping is kept as 'secret woman's business'! However late last year I had the pleasure of meeting Courtney and her bridal party for our Style Session and then, a few months later, I met her hubby-to-be, Lee, while the pair made the final decision and planning together. I saw instantly how much these too were in love. They utterly adore each other. They are without a doubt perfect for one another... as you can see from their stunning wedding photo's from Sun Lit Studio's.

Holly's Wedding: Charcoal Full Length Gowns
Isn't it funny how life turns out. Holly and Anthony went to high school together, but this isn't a high school sweetheart story. The pair first met in year 11, however only said hello to each other in passing. Never in a million years did either of them think that years later, they would end up madly in love and saying 'I DO'.
Anthony proposed on the 6th of July, the day before Holly's 28th Birthday.
"We had the day planned, working on our new house that was under construction. In the morning, Anth headed to Bunnings, while I enjoyed another 15 minutes in bed. Soon after I received a call from him, saying that he left the shopping list at our new house and asked if I could go and get it. I walked in, and found a HUGE love letter written on a piece of concrete sheeting. Then there was a knock at the front door. I opened it, to find Anth on bended knee. "I love you, will you marry me?" Of course I said "YES" through many happy tears! He then grabbed a bottle of champagne and two glasses that he had hidden to celebrate. We were then treated to two massages, dinner at Montalto and we stayed at a cute B&B. It was the PERFECT night."
Anthony and Holly were married on the 15th of February 2014 in Holly's Mum's beautiful backyard in Balnarring. Her gorgeous, carefully manicured gardens was the perfect backdrop.
The reception was held at Anthony's Mum's house in Mt Martha. A property that holds great memories for the family. A stunning marquee was erected, complete with pop up bar, DJ and dance floor!
"They loved their Lucy and Loo Gowns! As each of my bridesmaids are different height, size and shape and we could tailor the dress into a style that they all looked stunning in and felt comfortable in!"
Holly's gorgeous wedding dress is Anna Campbell, however her very clever Mum created the tulle bridal train which she wore during the ceremony and for part of the wedding photo's.

What was your favorite part of your wedding day?
I don’t think I could pick one favorite part. But I think I could pick 3!
- Because I can get pretty emotional, we decided to see each other before the ceremony. Anth came out to greet me when I got out of the car, it was so surreal.
- The first kiss and being announced as husband and wife! Not only was it an amazing moment, but it was also such a weight lifted off my shoulders, I really felt like I could relax, celebrate and enjoy the rest of the day.
- The last dance of the night! We aren’t very traditional and don’t enjoy a lot of attention so we didn’t have a first dance or anything like that. But the last dance of the night was ‘Rain’ and everyone picked us both up and we all sang and danced. It was so much fun!

Brooke's Wedding - Pale Pink Convertible Bridesmaid Dresses
The last think Brooke was expecting as she was choosing her costume for her best friends birthday party was that she was about to meet the man of her dreams.
This is a love story of when Aquaman met the Prince of Persia.. !
"Dave took me to my favorite restaurant up in the hills (It's a quirky little cottage with the most amazing views!) he pulled out the ring and while trying to get the box open he fumbled and accidentally threw the ring on the floor!
By the time he picked it up he was so embarrassed and red faced he said "So.. how about it? Will you marry me?"
Brooke's 4 bridesmaids Jenna, Lauren, Akalia and Emily wore Pale Pink Lucy and Loo Convertible Bridesmaid Dresses. They loved choosing their own styles and that they were so comfortable to wear.
Brooke and Dave were married in December 2013 on Dave's family property in Bendigo.
The reception was held in a gorgeous marquee with hanging chandeliers, the guests receiving a jar filled with pink and white marshmallows to match Brooks wedding theme.

"To Keep You Near was our florist.. although they are fake flowers! The most beautiful ones I have ever seen! You can't even tell that they are fake!" (You had me fooled Brooke! Even this close up pic looks real!)

Courtney's Wedding - Mocha Convertible Bridesmaid Dresses
"In February 2013, 5 day's after our 2 year anniversary, Dave took me to dinner at Bucci Restaurant in Brisbane. During dinner, Dave told me that he'd bought a tripod for his camera and asked if we could go to Kangaroo Point after dinner to take some photo's. He made up some story about Dick Smith trying to sell him a camera bag with the tripod, but it was too expensive so he was using a wine cooler bag he had been given. Knowing Dave and how much she hates spending money I totally believed the story."
"When we got to the top lookout of Kangaroo Point, Dave asked me to get the tripod out of the bag. I felt around inside the bag and all I felt was an ice brick. Confused, I turned around to face Dave to see him down on one knee holding the most beautiful engagement ring."
"I of course cried a lot, then said yes. We then sat at the lookout for a while enjoying the bottle of Moet and the chocolate dipped strawberries that he had made using my favorite Lindt Blueberry Chocolate".
