MADDY & JACOB

Alright, strap yourselves in. When high school sweethearts Maddy & Jacob finally tied the knot at Bendooley Estate, it wasn’t your run‑of‑the‑mill ceremony. These legends have been together since the first day of high school and chose the estate’s Stables, dressing them in blush and nude pinks, champagne and earthy tones. With the estate’s manicured gardens, lakeside pavilion and vineyards as their playground, they set long tables draped in dried blooms and fresh flowers for a rustic‑chic fever dream.

The ceremony? A short and sweet love fest overseen by Todd Mayhew of  Married by Todd. Todd rocked his moustache and seventies vibes and had everyone laughing and crying happy tears. They even opened with a heartfelt Welcome to Country before saying their vows. Meanwhile  Ivy Lane Collective worked their magic – think pampas, white hydrangeas and dried grasses. These South Coast florists are pros at overhead installations and transforming venues into floral wonderlands.

And let’s talk glam. Whyld Hair South Coast had Maddy looking like a goddess. After the “I do’s” they hit the polished concrete dance floor under a chandelier and swayed to Vance Joy’s “I’m With You”. Add an off‑the‑shoulder gown and killer playlist and you’ve got a wedding that was equal parts romantic and rock ’n’ roll.
