Maddison + Ashton, Gunbower Butter Factory

Maddison and Ashton are the kind of couple you can’t help but love—high school sweethearts who started their story with Ashton greeting Maddison at her locker every morning with a goofy “Hey.” (Seriously, how cute is that?!) Fast forward to their wedding day, and it was everything you’d expect from them: heartfelt, fun, and full of so much personality.

The Gunbower Butter Factory was such a vibe for their day. With its rustic charm and beautiful riverside setting, it was a dream backdrop. Sure, the weather was on the hotter side and a little windy, but their ceremony under the big gum trees by the water? Perfection. It was shaded, breezy, and oh-so-lovely—exactly what you’d want for a wedding like this.

After the ceremony, we took a quick drive (like, two minutes tops) to Lovers Lane for their bridal portraits. The spot is as romantic as it sounds, and these two absolutely nailed it. The photos were full of laughs, sweet moments, and the kind of chemistry that makes you believe in soulmates.

But let me tell you, it wasn’t just Maddison and Ashton making the day unforgettable. Their kids stole the show—especially their daughter Ellie, who was a force on the dance floor. I mean, this girl had the moves and kept the energy going for hours. Watching her have the time of her life was such a highlight!

One of the coolest things? Maddison made all the native florals herself. (Yes, she’s that talented!) They were scattered throughout the venue, and honestly, they brought such a gorgeous, personal touch to the day.

And then there was the entertainment. Sean K absolutely killed it with his live acoustic music during the reception, and when the sun went down, he switched to DJ mode and had everyone dancing like crazy. It was the perfect mix of chill and party vibes.

Maddison + Ashton’s wedding wasn’t just a celebration of their love as a couple—it was a celebration of family, friendship, and all the moments that have brought them here. It was relaxed, heartfelt, and completely them.

Maddison and Ashton, thank you for letting me be part of your day. Watching your love (and those dance moves!) was such a joy, and I’m so excited for this next chapter in your lives. Cheers to you and your beautiful family! ❤️
