Tottie & Jazz’s Wedding Day: Perfect Blend of Love and Celebration

Tottie (Kristina) and Jazz’s (Jarrod) story goes all the way back to pre-school. Although they can’t remember much about this time, this is where their story began.
After pre-school, they both attended the same high school and became friends. They continued to hang out as friends after graduation. Until about a year later, on a night out with friends, when things changed. This was the night they realised that they had something a bit more special than just being friends and by the end of the night, they had become a couple. And then on the 4th of February 2023, they became husband and wife, Jazz and Tottie Grenfell.

The weather couldn’t have been any more perfect for this special couple to unite in marriage at the stunning Athol Gardens in Blayney, NSW.

After the ceremony family and friends joined the couple at Tonic Restaurant located in the heritage-listed town of Millthorpe to continue the celebrations.

Bride’s Look

Our look was a bit relaxed boho, with our main colour being dusty pink. We wanted our look to be soft colours and flowy.

The Ceremony

The ceremony was held at Athol Gardens in the afternoon. We had 3 bridesmaids and 3 groomsmen. We chose to literally tie the knot and have our fathers tie a fisherman’s knot in our ceremony. We also presented our Mothers with a gift ad a thank you during the ceremony.

The Brides View On The Importance Of A Good Celebrant

Having Tanya as our celebrant couldn’t have been easier for us! She took care of everything, made the whole process simple and easy to follow and made us feel so relaxed and comfortable on our big day. Tanya was so efficient during the ceremony and had everything working perfectly so we didn’t have to stress about one thing!

The Brides Wedding Day Advice

Soak in every moment. It rushes by and before you know it it’s all finished. It’s important to really take a moment to enjoy the entire process.

The Bride’s Favourite Moment

The first moment of seeing each other at the ceremony was the favourite moment for both Jazz and I. The lead up to the wedding was quite long and was worth it all in that moment of finally seeing each other.

Brides Thoughts On Unexpected Hiccups

The best man forgetting is suit pants on the day, lucky his beautiful wife got them to him before the ceremony started.
