AMELIA + PATRICK - ADAM'S DISTILLERY

Ah, Tasmania. Known for its stunning scenery, fresh air, and… surprise weddings? Yes, you heard that right. We were lucky enough to be part of an incredible, sneaky wedding in Launceston, where Amelia and Patrick threw all expectations out the window and turned what was supposed to be an engagement party into a full-on wedding celebration.

The day kicked off with the girls—easygoing, relaxed, and thoroughly enjoying the pre-party vibes. There were tunes, some dancing, and plenty of laughs. Meanwhile, the boys were on top of their game. Within no time, they were dressed and ready to go—definitely a well-oiled machine.

Once the prep was done, it was time to execute the mission: Operation Keep the Secret. We made our way to the venue like stealthy ninjas, making sure we didn’t give anything away to the guests who were blissfully unaware of what was about to go down. But as soon as Amelia and Patrick dropped the bombshell, the whole place erupted with surprise and joy. The look on everyone’s faces? Priceless.

Now, let’s talk weather. Tasmania can be a bit fickle, especially when it comes to rain. The forecast had us on edge, but we packed up our secret weapon—clear skies and sunshine straight from Brisbane. As the outdoor ceremony kicked off, the weather was nothing short of amazing, the perfect setting for their vows.

Speaking of those vows, wow. You could feel the love and sincerity in every word. Eight years ago, Amelia and Patrick’s paths first crossed in a humble butcher shop. Who knew that two people slicing meat together would lead to something this beautiful? From the butcher block to the hospital, where they now work side by side, these two have built a life together that’s grounded in care and commitment. Their vows reflected that perfectly—personal, heartfelt, and absolutely real.

After the ceremony, we took a stroll through the venue’s gardens for some intimate photos. The lush greenery, the sun shining down, and the love between Amelia and Patrick made for the kind of photos that could melt anyone’s heart. We came across an apple tree and picked a fresh apple straight from the branch. It was a small, simple moment, but the taste was incredible, just like the day itself.

It was a day full of surprises, love, and unforgettable moments. Thank you, Amelia and Patrick, for letting us be part of your incredible journey. We wish you both a lifetime of happiness, laughter, and perhaps some more sneaky surprises along the way.

Congrats again, lovebirds!
