A Elly Sofocli Bride for a Super Luxe Jewish Wedding at the Epic National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, Australia

17/01/2018 by Karen

We LOVE a good Australian wedding. Aussies bring a certain sophistication and luxe look that we absolutely adore – they really know how to do it Down Under, and Den and Eden’s Jewish wedding was no exception!

With their loved ones at the forefront of this caring couple’s mind, the pair had their Jewish ceremony in a close friend’s back garden, before a glamorous reception at the iconic and impressive  National Gallery of Victoria.

As luck would have it, bride Den’s mother is an event planner, and was on hand throughout the process to bring everything together. The family-focused couple also adorned their chuppah with the tallit of three of their grandfathers, who had passed away, which we think is a beautiful way to honor lost loved ones during the chuppah service.

Beautiful bride Den looked sensational in her fashion-forward, form-fitting lace illusion  Elly Sofolci Couture  gown. With her bridesmaids all in ivory, holding tumbling bouquets of exotic flowers, the entire aesthetic was so on point that we actually can’t stop staring.

Den and Eden also provided a little extra entertainment to their guests, in the form of powerhouse violinist,  Sally Cooper, whose sublime work you can see on  YouTube. The room must have been simply electric!

Not one, but TWO fabulous Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendors were responsible for capturing the big day.  Jeremy Blode  put his phenomenal photography skills to work, creating a stunning set of images, while videographer Moon & Back  created the romantic, cinematic wedding trailer below.

And now that we’ve prepared you for your dose of wedding pretty, it’s time to leave the blog in Den’s good hands for the writeup of her and Eden’s big day!

How we met

Den, the bride: We were introduced by a mutual friend, who we owe a beer or two.
