possible dates,
thursday 14 July (date confirmed!),
this catches the overlap of vic, nsw and act school holidays

wedding at the registry (old treasury building)
wedding photos outside the paperback for ole times sake
a short stroll to the european/

supper club for morning tea, a toast to the b&g

the famous supper club window (what i've read described as the playschool window)

and, of course, wedding cake.

At first i thought an opera cake would be good.
the first description i read simply listed layers of joconde (coffee soaked almond cake) and ganache,
but apparently it traditionally also includes coffee butter cream, - so the kind of sickly sweet and cloyingly rich we used to get once a year from europa and monarch's in acland street.
a flourless chocolate cake with pear will be much better,
(an alternative recipe)
maybe embellished with cake pops for the kids

very fancy ones in london

less fancy

less fancy in melbourne

or there's always diy diy

diyy


diyiy


an alternative idea is those coloured macaroons on a bed of confetti so they look like big fat confetti
finally (maybe after a rest), dinner at the grace darling in the atrium


i love the dinky dodgy lights ...

might even be fun.

then our real moon in the mud house near castlemaine...
