Sonita and Marlowe married in a \u201cquintessential Aussie shed\u201d overlooking the Hawkesbury River in Sackville, NSW.<\/p>\n

The couple, aged 30 and 35, celebrated their bohemian barn wedding on September 29, 2018 with 192 guests. \u201cMarlowe and I love the outdoors and to have this venue [Cooks Co-Op] out in the sticks was definitely us,\u201d explains the bride. \u201cWe both wrote our own vows and our inner comedians definitely came out.”<\/p>\n

Juggling busy work schedules, the pair undertook DIY to save costs. \u201cMarlowe was quite the handyman, his masterpieces consisted of the copper piping framework which held our Perspex welcome sign,\u201d praises Sonita. He also made the wishing well out of wooden pallets<\/a>. \u201cAnd we did late night runs to find some pampas grass which stood on either side of us during our ceremony.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOur friends were not afraid to tell us that our wedding was the best wedding they\u2019ve been too,\u201d recalls the bride. \u201cThe venue also agreed that the atmosphere was definitely like no other wedding they had seen and we were most definitely the rowdiest bunch.\u201d<\/p>\n

“The big day, we woke up in our bed at home, kissed each other and went our separate ways to get ready,” says Sonita.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
