This edgy couple celebrated their wedding with a kick-ass party at Melbourne warehouse venue, Gather & Tailor. The joy of the day was captured by Sayher Heffernan, who totally ‘got’ the candid and relaxed style Georgia and Brent were looking for.

Since the couple met in the early morning hours at a local bar, it came as no surprise that the fun-loving couple wanted to celebrate their love with one fabulous party. Adorned with abundant Pomp & Splendour blooms, the inconspicuous Gather & Tailor was the ideal spot for Georgia and Brent’s super relaxed nuptials. “Hidden away amongst factories and down a gravel driveway, most of our guests thought they had taken a wrong turn as they tried to find the venue,” shares Georgia.

With the cruisy setup (sans seating plan), guests grabbed a chair wherever they liked and tucked into an amazing feast by Pot & Pan. As everyone sipped away at glasses of quality booze and listened to some killer party tunes – it wasn’t long before guests got downright groovy on the dance floor.

Pomp & Splendour nailed the urban vibe with an unstructured hanging floral arbour framing a 'Til Death' neon sign made by Alpha Lewis Signs.

“After the ceremony our guests thought that Megan from The Commitment Company must have been a friend of both of ours because of how personal and perfect our ceremony was,” shared Georgia.

A warehouse framed with huge, prickly cacti and a backdrop of shipping containers? We freaking love Gather & Tailor’s quirky, downtown vibes.

Abundant bouquets in mixed pinks by Pomp & Splendour were the perfect accessories to tie in Georgia's mismatched bridesmaids and 'bridesman'.

After finding her non-traditional wedding dress online, Georgia instantly knew that the Ellery gown was just made for her – especially with a killer pair of heels and some statement earrings.

The relaxed setup skipped the seating plan and guests feasted on modern share platters by Pot & Pan. Georgia tells us. "We loved the idea of everyone sitting at long tables, passing plates of food to each other and enjoying amazing food!"
