Our cake with the chorus of our first dance, "Amado Mio" by Pink Martini. "Let forever begin tonight" was the tag line of the evening - we also had it in our invitations, which were designed by one of my bridesmaids who is a graphic designer. The cake was done by Heavenly Delight Cakes and had different flavors in each tier.

The wedding party in front of our house. The bridesmaids wore Watters Too dresses in Pomegranate, each in a style she picked herself. The bride's dress is an Essense of Australia. The groom's tux is a Ben Sherman.
