DRESSED TO IMPRESS Alison wore a low-back, fitted dress by Australian brand, Made with Love, purchased through Perla Nova. Alison tells us, “I never really knew what I wanted, but I knew I wanted something simple and elegant. When I tried this dress on, I immediately felt like it was the one. The soft, buttery material hugged my figure perfectly, and I felt incredible in it. I accessorized with simple pearl earrings, which fitted our oyster-themed venue.” Jack wanted something simple, too. He wore navy chinos with a crisp white shirt and a stylish blazer from Reiss that gave off a relaxed, Mediterranean vibe. The bridesmaids were Alison’s ‘something blue’ and totally looked the part. TIME TO CELEBRATE Alison and Jack were determined to throw the most unforgettable party, so entertainment was key! Alison adds, “I found a DJ who performed with a saxophonist and drummer, and they absolutely made the night. The energy was incredible—the dance floor was packed from start to finish, and we partied until the early hours. It was the wildest night, and everyone had the best time.” MEMORABLE MOMENTS “The reception drinks overlooking the water were unforgettable, as was the incredible food. Dancing until our feet hurt was a blast, but the most magical moment was when Jack and I took a quiet moment to look over the venue, seeing all our friends and family celebrating with us. It was so overwhelming and special— everyone was there for us, and we’ll never forget it.” REAL WEDDINGS 31
