Cerisse + Dion , Vin du Van Winery
Let me share with you the love story of Cerisse and Dion, ending in a gorgeous wedding at the incredible boutique Vin du Van Winery in Mandurang, Bendigo. As your trusty Bendigo-based wedding paparazzi, I had an absolute cracker of a time capturing all the giggles and grooving of them, their bridal party and friends!
Picture this: it’s a modern-day tale sparked by a cheeky swipe on Tinder. But! Fate had been playing matchmaker long before smartphones entered the scene. With mutual mates and near-misses galore, Cerisse and Dion's paths finally collided, setting the stage for a love story worthy of the rom-com hall of fame.
Who says romance can't thrive in the midst of chaos? Certainly not Cerisse and Dion! These two lovebirds braved the storm of COVID-19, turning lockdowns into lock-ins and distance into an excuse for epic surprises. From morning cuppas to impromptu donut deliveries, they proved that love knows no bounds, not even a pandemic.
Fast forward to their big day at Vin du Van Winery, where love was in the air and laughter echoed through the vineyards. Picture-perfect floral arrangements by Ivy And Bloom set the stage for a celebration that was equal parts chic and cheeky.
