A Timeless Affair: The Story of Cassandra & Brett

A Classic Black-Tie Affair.

In the rolling hills of South Australia, at the breathtaking Silvestris at Clarendon, Cassandra and Brett began their forever. On a perfect November day, they hosted a classic black-tie wedding, a study in timeless elegance and sophisticated romance.

The story began with an invitation that was a work of art in itself. A custom black pocket, sealed with a white wax stamp and laser-cut with the couple’s monogram, opened to reveal a suite of pearlescent white cards. Fine script and a delicate floral illustration in black ink set the tone for a day where every detail was considered and every moment was infused with grace.

As guests arrived, the monochrome palette unfolded in a symphony of style. From the striking welcome sign to the elegant, rounded menus that graced each place setting, the design was a seamless narrative of black and white. Even the bar was a statement of personal style, featuring a custom sign for their signature cocktails.

This was more than just a colour scheme; it was a feeling. It was the crisp white of Cassandra’s gown against the classic black of Brett’s tuxedo, the bold design against the soft romance of the venue. It was a day that proved that true elegance never fades, creating a beautiful and timeless beginning to their shared story.
