The finer details:

VENUE: Ashley Community Church

The Ashley Community Church is a Category 2 Historic Building and began life as the Anglican Church of St Simon and St Jude. When it was sold for demolition in the early 1970s, locals with strong ties to the building and its heritage, salvaged it for interdenominational use by the wider community. An Incorporated Society now manages bookings, maintenance, and restoration work. The church celebrated 150 years in 2021.

PHOTOGRAPHER: Kirsten Smart Photography

You have two options to choose from:

  1. 60 minutes of photos (this option comes with the package)
  2. 90 minutes of photos (choose this option from $250 more)

The time for each photography option starts at the ceremony.

You will receive a gallery of images 40 business days after your wedding, with a ‘sneak peek’ of five images within two business days.

CELEBRANT: Kineta Booker

Kineta loves micro weddings! There’s something so special about inviting your closest friends and family to celebrate your love with you. We do the legal bit first, with a beautiful personalised ceremony, where you can share your own vows (which Kineta can help with) – then you can get into the celebration straight afterwards! (The price of the celebrant doesn’t include your marriage licence fee of $150 or marriage certificate, $33)


OPTIONAL:

Catering: Catered Affair – Antipasto platters

$19p/p, with options also available for children.
