I wasn't lying. Tash and Jules' Tasmanian wedding at Christmas Hills Raspberry Farm was actually backwards: the reception came before the ceremony! Plus, as Tash is a huge fan of purple, she got to wear two purple dresses (and some panda slippers when the feet started hurting).

Tash sang a tear-jerking song to Jules at the reception: “Hey Jude” became “Hey Jules,” and EVERYONE joined in, including the venue crew. Let's just let Tash herself explain how that felt: “It was one of those moments where you're part of a crowd, united in glory and song, and the energy swells to an overwhelming point — a collective joy that transcends the here and now, and reduces you to a teary laughing mess.” Like whoa. That's an epic feeling. Photographer Lakshal Perera knew we would eat this one up like delish wedding cake.
