Film wedding photography at Matilda bay restaurant IN PERTH

December 3, 2025

Abbey and Jordan’s Perth wedding was a super special one; from the fairy floss colourful florals to the garden ceremony to the beautiful water front reception at Matilda bay restaurant, every detail and setting was perfect. I photographed Abbey and Jordan’s wedding day using film and digital photography as I usually do. Film photography makes colourful florals absolutely pop in the most wonderful way so photographing this was extra fun for me! Abbey and Jordan met 8 years ago at the local Sunday session and since then they have build the most beautiful life which includes their puppy

Abbey and Jordan’s ceremony was held at UWA’s sunken gardens, the perfect shaded spot to beat the Perth summer heat. The colourful florals from Bloomin Wild particularly popped here with such a green backdrop. Craig Reilly sung before and after the ceremony and all the nephew’s got a bubble gun at the end for them to walk down the aisle too, a special little touch to keep the kids entertained.

Their reception was a cocktail evening under the stars and by the beautiful water at Matilda bay restaurant. The beat way to watch the sun set. They really wanted a relaxed snd fun evening enjoying the time with their friends and family and thats exactly what it was.

MATILDA BAY RESTAURANT WEDDING IN CRAWLEY, PERTH.

Should you hire a wedding planner? Well if you continue to scroll I think the answer will quickly become apparent! Bertie does planned and styled Julius and Abbey’s beautiful event at Matilda bay restaurant, one of my favourite Perth wedding venues. I mean, look at that sunset right on the river! And then pair it with Natural Art flowers by Rebecca Grace and you literally cannot go wrong with your wedding or event.

Every inch of the place was covered by either beautiful flowers by Natural Art flowers, signage by Paper fusion or perfectly complimenting furniture by Event artillery and Perth’s Matilda bay at sunset couldn’t have been a more wonderful back drop.

Matilda Bay, Perth WA

What a beautiful wedding day to be apart of!! Olivia and Chad’s first wedding was cancelled due to covid, the said their vowels in an intimate ceremony with just a few of their dearest during lockdown and saved the party for later on in the year. Their ceremony was held on the water at Matilda bay, their reception was inside the beautiful clear marquee at Matilda bay restaurant along Perths swan river. Olivia shared that she chose her dress based on the veil from Tuscany bridal. Their florals were all white by the amazing Violet lane tying perfectly with the beautiful river and Perth city in the background.

Olivia shared- “Amelia, Wow wow wow wow!!!! Thank you SOOOOO much for our absolutely amazing wedding photos. You captured the day so perfectly and we are so grateful that we now have these beautiful photos to re live our special day by. I can’t explain how much we love them!!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You are so talented and I am SOOO happy with how each one turned out. We have had many of our close friends who have unfortunately had bad experiences with their wedding photographers in the last two years so we really feel blessed to have had someone so trustworthy and kind as you. Thank you again.”
