Ileana & Paul

We have been looking forward to this wedding for ages. Fiji, beautiful weather, beautiful location, gorgeous couple, Fiji Bitter and a camera in my hand, what more can I ask for :-)

Ileana and Paul got married in a picturesque chapel at The Westin, Denarau Island Fiji. My favourite kind of wedding, elegant but relaxed, Vera Wang, Tiffany, Swarovski Crystal, Moet Chandon, Fiji Bitter, frangipanis, palm trees & golf buggies.

Vera Wangs and fijian war clubs, just what every bride needs for getting ready.

Ileana and her sisters getting ready
In the meantime, Paul and his 2 brothers are waiting till the very last minute to get ready.
Ileana and her Dad walking up to the chapel. The chapel is right on a point and surrounded by the beach and ocean.
After the ceremony we get some shots on the beach. Check out the sky and beautiful setting. Apparently it was raining in Sydney all week :-)
Three Irish blokes standing on a beach in Fiji ....
no no it's not another Irish joke , it's just three Irish blokes standing on a beach in Fiji.
Love the infinity pool and the warm colours as the sun is going down.
As the sun sets every night there is the ceremony of lighting the torches . Time to head for the reception.
At the reception dancing to the best reggae band in Fiji.With the Irish a couple of drinks always leads to a couple of songs.

Anyway, what an excellent wedding. We have so many images I'd like to share, but you'll just have to check out the slideshow.

And stay tuned for the day after session or Trash The Dress session where Ileana and Paul go for a swim in their wedding gear.
