The couple were wed on the banks of the Murray River surrounded by 120 guests. \u201cThe lush green lawns and the river gums provided shade on a perfect 30-degree day,\u201d Kelley recalls.<\/p>\n<p>A special moment for Kelley was seeing Jeremy, 36, shed a tear. \u201cI walked down the aisle to the voice of Kelly Thomas singing live &#8220;It Feels Like Home to Me&#8221; and as I held back tears my proud father walked me down the rustic, hessian-lined aisle to Jeremy who was wiping back tears!\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>The pair\u2019s daughter Ivy was their beautiful flower girl at the December 31 event last year.<\/p>\n<p>After the ceremony guests were treated to boozy punch or beer while listening to live country music on the river banks.<\/p>\n<p>Kelley and Jeremy made a game out of guests having to find their place at the <a title=\"Rich River Golf Club - Easy Weddings\" href=\"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/WeddingVenues\/MurrayMildura\/RichRiverGolfClubResort\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rich River Golf Club<\/a> reception. \u201cTo find their seat they had to find their face on the Polaroid photo board \u2013 some photos were so old \u2013 they all had a laugh about this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"clearfix\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" alt=\"Kelley_Jeremy_Rustic-Wedding_309_013\"
