Elise & Nic’s Church Point Duo + DJ Wedding

  • July 29, 2021

After postponing their May 2020 plans, Elise and Nic married on Sydney’s Northern Beaches in May 2021. We joined them with Duo + DJ, from their Church Point ceremony to the reception at BYRA.

Photography by Charlotte Exton captures the day.

Elise and Nic held their waterside ceremony at McCarr’s Creek Reserve in Church Point.

Little Lane Events styled the ceremony and reception. Elise was part of the Little Lane team herself, bringing her own eye for wedding details to the day.

Lisa Parker from Married By Lisa led the ceremony.

Elise walked down the aisle to our live version of “Feels Like Home” by Chantal Kreviazuk. We performed “Can’t Help Falling in Love” for the signing, then “Everybody Needs Somebody to Love” by The Blues Brothers for the recessional, continuing into the champagne tower.

Josie and Tim are the best in the biz. I’d heard them perform many times at weddings I was working at and they were so good that I booked them for my own and didn’t even consider anyone else. Not only are they incredibly skilled and incredibly professional musicians, but they’re also so much fun and just great people. They made sure our wedding day had an epic soundtrack – and they made it seem effortless! Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Our duo continued over the canapé-style reception with pop and classic covers. During the speeches, two of Elise’s friends surprised her with a song from a high-school musical they had performed together.

Elise and Nic opened the dance floor with “I Am So in Love With You” by Ball Park Music. Josie’s DJ set followed, mixing ’90s and 2000s tracks with country singalongs and pop favourites.
