REAL WEDDING
ELOISE + BRADY
PHOTOGRAPHY | SINGLE SOUL
Eloise and Brady’s connection began when a mutual friend shared an Instagram photo featuring Brady’s charming smile. Intrigued, Eloise decided to follow him. Yet, their paths remained parallel as Brady was attached to a girlfriend. Months rolled on, until a timely twist manifested on Eloise’s birthday – a “Happy birthday” message from Brady. Curiosity piqued, Eloise realised his girlfriend’s images had vanished from his profile. Seeking clarification, she consulted their mutual friend who confirmed their breakup.
Eloise and Brady went on their first date a week later. It started out as brunch and ended up lasting the entire day with Eloise being dropped home at 10pm that night. The couple have since been inseparable.
The proposal was supposed to be a grand gesture on their big trip they had planned to Europe in 2020. However, Covid-19 had other plans. So, it was on a Sunday afternoon on their living room floor in tracksuits, spontaneous, as Brady did not want to wait any longer.
Eloise and Brady invited 100 people to their wedding and 90 attended. They were a bit bored of all the white they had seen lately so wanted something really bright and warm. Also, Eloise knew she wanted black bridesmaids’ dresses, which the flowers really popped against. They used a lot of pink and red in their invites and menus and complimented the bold colours with hints of gold.
Brady and his seven groomsmen all had bone-coloured M.J. Bale suits with black pocket squares. Brady wore a three-piece suit and had his and Eloise’s new initials along with their wedding date embroidered on the inside, which was a nice touch. The back of his vest was also a nice purple to complement the flowers.
Eloise’s dress was a white silk Curator the Label gown with a massive circular train that had a sort of wrap draping effect allowing for a high leg split. She also wore a two-tier cathedral veil with her face covered as she walked down the aisle wearing some dainty diamanté Amina Muaddi white heels.
The most memorable moment for both was seeing each other for the first time at the beginning of the ceremony. Brady loved Eloise’s vows and she adored his very cheeky garter retrieval, where he used his belt to tie her hands together and gave her a little lap dance in front of everyone.
Most important for the couple on their special day was having their dogs there as they are also their family.
Eloise and Brady have a few words of wisdom for newly-engaged couples. “Don’t feel rushed to set a date. This means you can have exactly what you want rather than settling for what’s available. Also, when budgeting, pick 2-3 non-negotiable things that are important to each of you and spend your money there. For everything else shop around and go cheaper.”
