Last weekend I had the honour of capturing the union of Nick and Charlene at the local Greek Orthodox Church. Their day was special as are all weddings but Nick and Charlene’s journey over the last 12 months made their day even more magical and special to not only them but their family and friends. See Nick and Charlene were supposed to get married on the 28th of October last year but on September 7th 2017 seven weeks out from their wedding, Charlene was diagnosed with high grade Invasive Carcinoma Breast Cancer!!! Nick rang me very upset with the devastating news and put the wedding on hold until they knew more and what the future held for Charlene. After 20 weeks of chemo and lumpectomy surgery the tumor had completely shrunk and Charlene had no further spread of cancer to her lymph nodes and she started rehab to get her strength back. Nick is truly in love with Charlene and he put his life on hold with having 8 months off work to attend her every appointment and be by her side!! After this amazing outcome the wedding was back on!! Happy dance!! The day of the wedding was perfect clear skies and even though it was a little warm nothing was going to put a damper on this day! Charlene looked gorgeous and she had a smile from ear to ear all day as she had dreamed of this day and it was finally here!! Nick and the men looked very dapper in their suits and even their dog Jaxx put on his tux for this special day! After saying their I do’s in the gorgeous Greek church we went on location for some snaps and fun until sunset when we then headed to the awesome venue the Brewery for their reception to celebrate this gorgeous couple! Such happiness and joy for Nick and Charlene that they finally got to this amazing day and it did not disappoint! I wish you all the happiness in the world in your married life together!! What you have both just faced together over the last twelve months is amazing and a credit to your love and support for each other! Congrats Mr & Mrs Loizou!!!
