Personal touches create Kirra and Aaron’s romantic rustic wedding

A wedding date setback and change of venue couldn’t stop lovebirds Kirra Officer and Aaron Budd having the romantic rustic wedding of their dreams.

After Aaron was in a motorbike accident, the wedding was pushed back five months and the venue they had their heart set on had closed down. But the Noosa Golf Club in Tewantin Queensland was a replacement that superseded expectations.

“We were beyond happy with our decision to get married at the Noosa Golf Club,” explains Kirra, 28 of her decision with Aaron, also 28. “The ceremony location was simply beautiful on the 11th tee overlooking a lake shaded by trees overhead.”

The physiotherapist and builder relied on family and friends to help create the personalised wedding they hoped for. “The majority of decorations were created and set up by my mother, our dear close friends or myself, from mum hand-sewing my veil to me making our chocolate coconut-flavoured wedding cake,” says Kirra.

The bridesmaids also pitched in, creating a hanging garland and vases of flowers for the reception. “All of their loving input helped create our personal, rustic romantic wedding.”

“We chose our bridal party dresses to be ivory lace to complement our wedding theme,” says Kirra. “The girls received so many compliments on the night.”

Jay Flood of Noosa Style Ceremonies wed the couple at the golf club. “He was beyond amazing,” praises the bride.

“Kirra is the most kindhearted, beautiful person I could have ever hoped for,” says Aaron, dressed in navy by Roger David.
