REAL WEDDING

Flick and Henry’s wedding at Siglo Bar was like the couple; relaxed, effortlessly ‘cool’ with chic styling details. Channelling Annie Hall in an ivory suit and with a bunch of tulips for her bouquet, it’s no wonder Flick and Henry’s wedding caught the eye and was featured by The Anti-Bride .

In my Q&A, I chat to Flick about where she found her wedding day inspiration (it wasn’t instagram!) and why she chose Siglo as their intimate wedding venue. Read the full blog post here.

client testimonial

“We loved the fact that it was outside but still protected and also the European feeling. It almost feels like Europe but in Melbourne’s CBD. Which your guests will actually really appreciate!

The menu was perfect – lots of small, shared plates and Tiramisu for dessert.

What we loved about Siglo was the great food, amazing wine and a lovely, attentive team of experts. Also, they were very accommodating with my diva request of shipping in our favourite NZ Pinot Noir that you can’t get in Australia and at the end of the night they bunched up our incredible flowers for us to take home which exceeded my expectations!” - Flick & Henry
