brenna + Cody

Kirra Wedding on the Gold Coast


Saturday's wedding was full of love, laughter, and the enduring power of commitment on the soft, golden sands of Kirra Beach, the gentle crash of the waves, and the lovebirds from opposite sides of the world. Cody hails from America, and Brenna is our Aussie sweetheart, and together, they proved that love knows no bounds, not even international borders!


They actually got married in America a while ago and due to that infamous party-crasher called COVID this wedding was postponed, this was their Australian version of their big day. And let me tell you, it was worth the wait. There's something about a beach wedding that infuses an air of casual elegance into the ceremony. Brenna's amazing mother organised this stunning wedding which was 4 years in the making and the day an absolute stunner.


Now, let's talk about the real magic of the day – the people. This was a family affair in every sense of the word. Cody and Brenna were surrounded by their nearest and dearest, even Cody's parents flew out from America, and it was evident that their love was a source of great joy not only to the couple but to everyone present. Laughter and love flowed freely, and there were more than a few teary eyes during the heartfelt vows.

A beach wedding is all about fun, right? Post-ceremony, the party kicked into high gear in the community centre at Kirra. As the night descended, the centre was lit up with the warm glow of lanterns, and the celebration continued under the stars. The dance floor under the stars was filled with the sounds of laughter, the shuffling of feet, and maybe just a few embarrassing dance moves (most probably from me!!).


Cody and Brenna's wedding was the stuff of dreams. Four long years in the making, it was a beautiful testament to love's enduring nature. A blend of Australian and American traditions, it was a day to remember and a celebration of family and love.


Cheers to Cody and Brenna – may your love continue to shine brighter than the Gold Coast sunsets! 🥂💖
