Terrigal Beach Wedding – Central Coast Wedding Photography

Due to this current lockdown, obviously we arent shooting any weddings at the moment at Bells at Killcare. Its pretty devastating that our couples are all looking to reschedule their special days but looking on the bright side, at least we have some amazing weddings to look forward to especially at Bells at Killcare. So because we can’t blog any new weddings, we are going through the archives and reminiscing on some of our amazing past weddings, especially at Bells at Killcare.

One which stands out is the wedding of Karina and Craig at Bells at Killcare back in 2017. It’s always a lot of fun having lunch receptions at weddings and at Bells at Killcare it was such a good move by Karina and Craig as their guests were able to enjoy the beautiful gardens of Bells at Killcare for the entire day. As mentioned in many of our previous blog posts, having the wedding all in one location from preps to reception is a photographers dream. No rushing about to and fro, we can just roll in and shoot away with less worry about how we are going for time. So we started the morning off at one of Bells at Killcare’s family suites, where Karina and the girls were getting ready for the day. Not long after we headed over to the Bells at Killcare reception where Craig cruised in in his drop top looking very dapper.

The ceremony took place on the beautiful grounds of Bells at Killcare with their closest friends and family by their side and once they exchanged vows, the guests enjoyed champagne and canapés in the lush gardens whilst enjoying speeches by family and the couple as well. We all then headed into the reception room at Bells at Killcare where they enjoyed the always amazing food that the Bells at Killcare kitchen always prepare. And whilst the guests continued to enjoy the food, drinks and music at Bells at Killcare we took this opportunity to duck out with Karina and Craig.

The beauty of the Central Coast, and Killcare in particular, is that we are spoilt with the national parks that surround us so we headed over the Bouddi National Park near the Box Head trail and enjoyed golden hour with the newly weds. Such an awesome day and we can’t wait for the weddings to start up again so we can celebrate and shoot more beautiful weddings, not only at Bells at Killcare but all over the Central Coast and NSW.

Terrigal is absolutely breathtaking this time of the year, add the scenery of Terrigal beach with the quaint cottage-like look and feel of Maccoa The Clan in Terrigal, and you get the perfect backdrop for us wedding photographers, an undisclosed wedding not too far from the big smoke of Sydney and at one of Central Coasts best known holiday destinations. The wedding of Ari and Luke at Maccoa The Clan Terrigal did not disappoint that’s for sure. Ari and Luke first contacted us many moons back before the world was in lockdown ‘ah yes the dreaded C word’, a year passed and we were thrilled to finally photograph their fun-filled wedding as restrictions eased and the dance floor opened up!

The wedding day started with us meeting the nervous groom at one of the rooms at Maccoa The Clan Terrigal, rehearsing his perfectly written speech on his laptop while his groomsmen approached. Such a fun witty bunch, big into their gaming and Dungeons and Dragons, always a treat as we could relate! Ari got ready not too far away at a private spot still part of Maccoa The Clan in Terrigal. Just like the boys, Ari’s entourage was ready to roll out and ready to party, much to celebrate about before they finally walked down the aisle with Terrigal Beach as their backdrop, just behind Maccoa The Clan.

After a beautiful, ‘laughter filled’ wedding ceremony, we quickly went away from Maccoa The Clan Terrigal and headed straight to the Skillion at Terrigal Haven, going over the rocks and boulders. The afternoon sun shining at Terrigal along with a perfect 24 degrees golden hour sunset light, provided just the perfect atmosphere for their wedding bridal pictorial photos. Along with their fun personalities, we were able to get a mix of serious and character filled wedding photos we know and love.

After spending some time around Terrigal Haven and the Skillion rocks, we headed back towards Maccoa The Clan Terrigal where their family and friends were eagerly awaiting for their formal introduction as husband and wife to kick off the night of speeches and dancing. Thanks to the great work of Everlong Weddings who styled the room and of course Maccoa The Clan Terrigal for providing not just an amazing location but exceptional service, Ari and Luke’s wedding reception was just perfect. After a few speeches and many beers and wines later, they had their first dance as husband and wife. But the party was just beginning and everyone enjoyed the night dancing away at Maccoa The Clan Terrigal.

Thank you for having the Coast Wedding Photography team capture your very special day. We wish you both all the best in this life!
