When it came time to plan their romantic winery wedding, Brisbane couple Jessica and Ethan’s priorities lay with making sure their guests were as comfortable as possible.
The couple chose their venue, Sirromet Wines, primarily because it offered the complete package in one location. “It had both ceremony and reception venues, and glamping tent accommodation, which made it easy and stress-free for ourselves, the bridal party and our guests,” explains the bride. “We thought about the little things so our guests did not have to worry.”
The pair, aged 27 and 29, tied the knot overlooking the winery’s natural lagoon on August 16, 2019. Guests were then treated to a beautiful candle-lit dinner and a rocking live performance by Baker Boys Band.
“We were all about the small details,” says Jessica. “We did away with a bridal table as we wanted everyone to be able to sit altogether, including partners who didn’t know anyone, and provided dancing shoes (thongs) at the reception for when heels started to hurt.”

Jessica’s elegant long-sleeved gown was perfect for the winter wedding. She paired it with Christian Louboutin pumps and Honey Birdette lingerie.
After three years of dating, Ethan proposed to his bride while on a snow holiday in Queenstown, New Zealand.
“There is absolutely nothing I would change or do over.”
“Baker Boys Band took our wedding to the next level and created an atmosphere that got everyone involved in the dancing, including a conga line!”
