Well, we're back from Melbourne. Got in this morning at 8am Perth time (saving $120 by booking a 6am flight is less appealing when you have to force yourself awake at 4am).

Sajee and Essie's Really Big Party (and commitment ceremony) was yesterday afternoon and it was a lot of fun. It was held at the old Glen Harrow manor house in Belgrave.


It's a beautiful location, and really fit the theme of everyone stepping back to the 1920s. Some people's outfits were absolutely stunning.

SJ and Es, of course, looked amazing.


There was music (some of it live!) and food and champagne. Ben and I lamented the lack of swing music to dance to, but I'm sure we just would have ended up showing off (or Ben would end up teaching flappers to Charleston).

We never get to spend enough time with our Melbourne friends. We should rectify this by following DB's advice from last night.
