Ellyse & Liam: A Contemporary Love Story at LIMEKILN

Ellyse & Liam: A Contemporary Love Story at LIMEKILN

Written by Emma Hla

LIMEKILN was the perfect setting for Ellyse and Liam—modern, a little bit cool, but never trying too hard. Its stripped-back interiors and relaxed atmosphere let the details shine: a sculptural Frida Bennett gown, soft blush-toned flowers, and tables filled with thoughtful touches (hello personalised tambourines).

The day carried an effortless elegance that felt completely theirs, finished with a champagne tower and a packed dance floor. Captured beautifully on both film and digital by Lauren Elizabeth Photography, this wedding balanced style with a whole lot of soul.

Ellyse wore the most stunning Freda Bennett gown—featuring a structured bodice, voluminous skirt, and a timeless feel that suited her perfectly.

The Venue

LIMEKILN has this incredible way of blending refined fashion with a trend-led edge—it’s cool without ever trying too hard. Its striking interiors and effortless aesthetic set the perfect stage for Ellyse and Liam’s celebration that felt both editorial in look and deeply personal in atmosphere.

The Fashion

Ellyse wore the most stunning Freda Bennett gown—featuring a structured bodice, voluminous skirt, and a timeless feel that suited her perfectly. She paired it with sleek hair, a delicate veil, and a bouquet of blush, ivory, and dusty pink roses for a look that was classic with a modern twist. The groom’s navy suit balanced it beautifully—understated, sharp, and perfectly tailored.

The Styling

The styling really pulled everything together. A draped installation suspended from the trees became a striking backdrop for portraits, while lush florals—garden roses and textured greenery—brought romance into every space. The tables were just as thoughtful, with personalised tambourines at each setting. They weren’t just décor—they came to life during the speeches, filling the room with rhythm, laughter, and energy!

After dinner, a live saxophone lifted the party into full swing, and the couple kicked off the dancing with a champagne tower—an effortlessly glamorous moment that set the tone for the night ahead.

The florals by The Bloominati Florist were a defining part of the day’s design, with a palette of soft blush, ivory, and muted rose tones that felt both romantic and fashion-forward.

The Flowers

The florals by The Bloominati Florist were a defining part of the day’s design, with a palette of soft blush, ivory, and muted rose tones that felt both romantic and fashion-forward. Layered garden roses added texture and abundance, while statement urns overflowing with blooms framed the ceremony in the most striking way. Later, draped fabric paired with sculptural arrangements gave the portraits and outdoor spaces that editorial edge. From the ceremony through to the tablescapes, the flowers tied everything together with warmth, intimacy, and understated luxury.

The Photographer

Lauren Elizabeth Photography approaches weddings with a genuine focus on storytelling. She captures not just how the day looked, but how it felt—balancing unscripted moments with thoughtful details. Shooting on both 35mm film and digital, she creates timeless imagery that reflects the true essence of each couple’s day.
