A Wedding on the Family Farm

Ali and Lincoln didn’t need to look far to find a wedding location filled with meaning. They chose to marry on the Lurg farm that has been part of Ali’s family for generations and was once owned by her great-grandmother.

Today, Ali continues that connection through her own work on the property, producing wool and playing an active role in the farm’s future. This wasn’t simply a beautiful country backdrop chosen for the photographs, it was part of her family’s story and a place that already felt like home.

Beside the Creek

The ceremony was held beside a little creek, with sheep tracks winding away in different directions across the surrounding paddocks. It was quiet, wonderfully rural and completely in keeping with Ali and Lincoln.

The setting didn’t need elaborate styling. The landscape, the water and the history held within the property gave the ceremony its own character.

Homegrown Flowers and Helping Hands

Every flower used throughout the wedding was grown by Ali herself. They appeared in the bouquets, across the horizontal arbour and in the beautiful arrangements decorating the vintage pickup truck.

In the lead-up to the ceremony, many of the women in Ali’s family came together to create the floral arbour. It became more than a piece of wedding styling; it carried the time, creativity and involvement of the people closest to her.

A Wedding Filled with Family History

Family connections continued throughout the ceremony, with their mothers invited to sign the marriage certificates as Ali and Lincoln’s official witnesses.
