Our Story

April & Johnny

Thanks for waiting.

It's been a wild ride. From the dancefloor of Deluxe to the aisle at Higher Ground, we're finally doing this.

Fourteen years in the making, and one little Jude later, our life is pretty full. Now, it's time to make it official.

We can't wait to celebrate with you somewhere that feels truly Melbourne β€” great coffee, delicious food, and plenty of room for the proper party you've all been waiting for.

FAQ

Good to
know

The main event kicks off at 6:15 PM sharp. We recommend arriving a few minutes early to grab a drink and settle in.

Formal attire. We're celebrating in a stunning space, so feel free to dress to impress! Think smart, elegant, and β€” most importantly β€” comfortable enough to keep you on the dance floor.

We love your little ones, but our wedding will be an adults-only celebration so that everyone can enjoy a well-deserved night off. (The only exception is for the very "wee ones" who aren't quite ready to leave Mum and Dad just yet).

Higher Ground is right in the heart of the city, with First Parking (558 Little Bourke St) and Secure Parking (700 Collins Street) both just a short stroll away. That said, we're planning a proper party β€” we'd suggest jumping in an Uber so you can truly let loose with us!

Honestly, having you there to celebrate with us is the greatest gift we could ask for. We've chosen not to have a formal registry, but for those who have asked, a wishing well will be tucked away at the venue for cards and well-wishes.

Please RSVP by 10 June 2026. This helps us confirm numbers with the venue and ensure everything is perfect for the evening.
