European Inspired Garden Beauty at Cottesloe Civic Centre

With its historic architecture, Cottesloe Civic Centre provided the perfect backdrop for this intimate yet grand affair. Inspired by the effortless beauty of European soirées, Victoria & David’s garden ceremony and open air reception embraced charm and intimacy with a series of winding tables creating a picture perfect setting for their guests to dine and dance the evening away.

 The ceremony took place in the lush Sunken Garden, framed by the venue’s charming arches and blooming florals. Guests were seated beneath the trees as the couple exchanged heartfelt vows in a setting reminiscent of a romantic European courtyard. The soft melody of a string quartet filled the air, adding to the timeless beauty of the moment. It was an intimate ceremony, setting the tone for an unforgettable celebration. 

At the heart of the evening was our winding series of round tables in the Secret Garden, placed to encourage conversation and a warm sense of togetherness. Draped in soft, flowing linens and adorned with delicate floral arrangements, the tables exuded refined elegance. We introduced pops of soft pinks throughout, blush-toned roses, peonies, and trailing blooms, to bring a gentle romance that complemented the venue’s timeless architecture and lush gardens. Each place setting was completed with crystal glassware and gold cutlery, adding a touch of classic luxury.
