Zonzo Estate Winery

The Wedding

Aleks & Em live in Queensland but they decided to get married at the beautiful Zonzo Estate Winery, in the Yarra Valley.These two may never have met but amazingly they did.   Their story began when they met on a Top Deck tour bus many years ago.Once Emily and Aleks started chatting, they forgot that there was a bus full of other people around them.     They shared their first kiss in Edinburgh just a few days later and by the end of the trip they there was an attraction that neither of them could deny.   And here they are on their wedding day.Their day was a relaxed and fun occasion.  They incorporated some beautiful rituals including a wine box and love letter ceremony.   Firstly, they had written beautiful love letters to each other.  The private letters conveyed the things they love about each other and what they are looking forward to in their future.  The letters were place in a wine box with a bottle of wine from Zonzo Estate.  I explained to their guests that in a years time on their first wedding anniversary, they will open the box, drink the wine and read the letters.With the help of Alek's parents, they also included a beautiful Serbian tradition of "joining of the hands".  A nod to Alek's Serbian heritage.Josie Lee Photography captured all the special moments from this very special Zonzo Estate Winery Wedding.    Enjoy these stunning images.Groom getting ready on his wedding dayGroom and groomsmen on wedding dayWedding dress hanging in windowBride getting ready on her wedding daymum helps daughter with her veil on wedding dayHappy Groom sees bride on his wedding dayBride and her father walking down aisleWedding ceremony at zonzo estateHandfasting on wedding day at zonzo estateHappy couple after wedding ceremonyBride & Groom taking a walk on their wedding day  Couple kissing on wedding day at zonzo estateWedding flowers Zonzo estate wedding receptionBride & Groom laughing Wedding cake at zonzo estate Couple under festoon lighting at zonzo estate

Review

We are so fortunate to have had Fiona help us celebrate our special day.Fiona was a standout from our initial research and proved to be an amazing celebrant (as we suspected). She was diligent from the initial meet–to the day of the wedding. She was organised, communicated well, and made us feel comfortable right through the whole process.Fiona created an amazing vibe on our wedding day; making it a fun, light-hearted, but special occasion that we will always remember.We are so glad that Fiona was a part of our day and would recommend Fiona to anyone looking for a fantastic celebrant.Em & Aleks
