Marnie & Matt’s Wedding @ Melbourne Town Hall

My sister Marnie’s marriage to Matt Higgs got me back to Melbourne for the first time since I left to return to San Francisco a year ago.  It was a whirlwind week-long trip but really lovely to see the family and catch up with my friends again after yet another (my ninth!) year living overseas.

The wedding itself was a small, intimate and elegant affair held at the Victorian-era Melbourne Town Hall in the city CBD.  The ceremony was held in the plush old council chambers, folowed by some celebratory drinks out on the balcony overlooking Swanston St.  The reception was held in one of the Town Hall’s beautiful ballrooms was lovely, with everyone seated around a long u-shaped table.
