A Love Story from the Library Stairs to Villa Botanica

Love has a way of finding us in the most unexpected places. For Jess and Tom, their journey began on the library stairs at uni, where a mutual friend introduced them. What started as a simple meeting soon blossomed into a beautiful love story, culminating in a breathtaking destination wedding at Villa Botanica, Airlie Beach.

The Journey to "I Do"

When Jess and Tom envisioned their wedding day, they knew it had to be special. Their connection was rooted in simplicity and authenticity, and they wanted a celebration that reflected the essence of their love. After exploring various options, they chose Villa Botanica, a stunning location that offered the perfect blend of natural beauty and elegance.

For Jess and Tom, the moment they were most looking forward to was walking down the aisle. It was a symbolic journey, representing the path they had walked together since that first meeting on the library stairs. Surrounded by family, friends, and the lush greenery of Villa Botanica, they took their first steps into a new chapter of their lives.
