Leona Anne Vardanega and James William Coleman married at St Bede's Church in Braidwood on Saturday August 13 2016.
Leona is the daughter of Brenda and Ian Vardanega of Braidwood. James is the son of Mark and Leonora Coleman from the UK.
Family and friends came from England, Griffith, Central Coast, Forster, Geelong, Tasmania and Melbourne to help celebrate the big day. Leona’s friends from boarding school Jessica Lee, Meika Skuse and Kylie Gillet were her attendants for the day while James was supported by groomsmen Anel Kanuric, Mathew Kay and Michael Lea. Stella Vardanega was a flowergirl with page boys Mack and Teddy Vardanega, Aston and Dominic Molina-Coleman.
James and Leona thank everyone involved to make the day as perfect as it was. “We are blessed to be surrounded by a loving group of family and friends and we look forward to sharing many years of happiness in our town.”
The National Theatre was decorated beautifully for the reception for 140 people.
