Both the ceremony and reception were held in this space, with a raised landing for the ceremony and a marquee for the reception,&#8221; Gabi says.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The marquee was decorated with foliage, succulents and candles on three long wooden tables. The colour scheme was very neutral combining timber, greenery and crisp, clean white.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The bride says the bohemian beach wedding was a special celebration.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We wanted our wedding to be more than a celebration of us, but a celebration of everyone that has been a part of our relationship,&#8221; Gabi says.<\/p>\n<p>Photos courtesy of <a title=\"Bohemian Prints\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bohemianprints.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Bohemian Prints<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-177520 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/content.easyweddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Gabi_Zio_Bohemian-Beach-Wedding_Bohemian-Prints_001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-177522 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/content.easyweddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Gabi_Zio_Bohemian-Beach-Wedding_Bohemian-Prints_003.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"clearfix\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-177562 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/content.easyweddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Gabi_Zio_Bohemian-Beach-Wedding_Bohemian-Prints_SBS_002.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" title=\"\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-177561 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/content.easyweddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Gabi_Zio_Bohemian-Beach-Wedding_Bohemian-Prints_SBS_001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" title=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"clearfix\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-177563 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/content.easyweddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Gabi_Zio_Bohemian-Beach-Wedding_Bohemian-Prints_SBS_003.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" title=\"\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-177565 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/content.easyweddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Gabi_Zio_Bohemian-Beach-Wedding_Bohemian-Prints_SBS_005.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" title=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-177527\" src=\"https:\/\/content.easyweddings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Gabi_Zio_Bohemian-Beach-Wedding_Bohemian-Prints_008.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Gabi wore two dresses on the big day &#8211; a strapless gown for the ceremony and a party dress for the reception from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/Bridesmaids\/Canberra\/LuvBridalAndFormalFactoryDirectBM\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Luv Bridal<\/a> that she had converted into a tutu.
