Samara and David married on 27 September 2025 at the beautiful The Convent Hunter Valley, surrounded by the charm of historic gardens and vineyard views. Their day was simple, heartfelt and elegant, a celebration focused on love, connection and the people who matter most.

A Small and Intimate Celebration
This was a wedding that truly embraced intimacy. Samara and David each had one special person by their side, David’s best woman Brydee, who looked incredible in a custom tailored suit from Rundle Tailoring, and Samara’s sister Lorissa, who wore a stunning full length navy blue gown. Every moment was thoughtful, intentional and personal.
Ceremony and Celebration
Their ceremony took place within the elegant grounds of The Convent, framed by lush greenery and soft spring light. After exchanging vows, the couple and their small group of guests enjoyed canapés, drinks and lawn games, relaxed, joyful and perfectly in tune with the Hunter Valley’s laid back style.
Exploring The Convent and Beyond
As the afternoon rolled on, Samara and David explored the grounds of The Convent, Circa 1876 and Pepper Tree Wines, capturing romantic portraits surrounded by sandstone buildings, heritage gardens and golden light. It was a timeless Hunter Valley moment, full of laughter, quiet reflection and real connection.
