Cleo & Sanden’s Ballarat Wedding | Buninyong Ceremony & Ivory Pavilion Reception

March 29, 2026

Cleo and Sanden’s wedding day was a celebration ten years in the making, a journey that began in high school and led to a day filled with meaning, history, and so much love.

The morning began in Ballarat, with preparations followed by a first look and portraits at the stunning Bishops Palace. Surrounded by beautiful architecture and soft light, it was the perfect setting for a quiet moment together before the day unfolded.

From there, we made our way to St Peter and Paul’s Church in Buninyong, where Cleo and Sanden exchanged vows in a heartfelt ceremony surrounded by their closest friends and family. The emotion carried through the day, with so many genuine moments shared between them and their loved ones.

The celebrations continued at Ivory Pavilion in Buninyong, where a relaxed and joyful reception brought everyone together to celebrate not just a wedding, but a decade-long love story. A beautiful, thoughtful day from start to finish.

The Beginning

We met when my mum gave me $50 to approach a group of boys at my Year 10 social and we’ve been together ever since.

Our wedding day falls on our 10-year anniversary, which makes it even more special. We’ve been lucky enough to grow up together over the past decade, finishing high school, navigating university, building our careers, and now stepping into a new chapter as we move into our first home.
