Better Together


Deb and Keith once thought their lives were complete. But then they met each other—and discovered that together, everything was brighter, fuller, and more joyful. Their wedding day was a celebration of that love, shared with their closest family and friends in a setting that was as timeless as their story.


When searching for a venue, the pair fell in love with the Keilor Hotel. Its gorgeous sandstone wine cellar and dreamy fountain garden were exactly what they had envisioned. It was the perfect place to begin their married life side by side.


Tradition was beautifully honoured throughout the day. Deb chose a stunning white gown and flowing veil—because every bride should wear exactly what she wants—and Keith and his wedding party, including his son, looked sharp in pale grey suits. Though Deb and Keith waited to see each other at the aisle, Deb shared a tender “first look” with her family, soaking in their joy before her father proudly walked her towards her forever love.

As part of a Side by Side Wedding, the team went over and above to make no detail was overlooked. Carol adjusted Deb’s gown before her walk down the aisle to ensure picture-perfect moments, while Kylie created a heartfelt ceremony that had more than a few guests reaching for tissues. Their vows, framed by the gentle sounds of the fountain, were filled with quiet certainty and deep emotion.


After the formalities, the celebration unfolded with relaxed joy. Glasses were raised, laughter filled the air, and the couple shared fun moments with their loved ones before cutting into a beautifully decorated naked cake. The dance floor soon came alive, carrying everyone into an evening of celebration.
