Travis and Allie’s Brisbane Wedding
If you’re looking for a local Brisbane Wedding Venue that feels like you are out of the suburbs in a private, lakeside garden, this venue is a must see! We were thrilled to be the Cherbon Waters Wedding Photographer and Videographer for Travis & Allie’s memorable and magical day!
Tucked away in Burbank, South-East Brisbane, Cherbon Waters is a wedding ceremony and reception venue positioned right beside the Tingalpa Reserve. The perfect location for an outdoor ceremony in the covered gazebo or lakeside – offering tranquil, uninterrupted water views. The stunning gardens that surround the entire venue at Cherbon Waters, offers a wonderful selection of beautiful photo locations. We particulary love the reception marquee right by the water fountain adorned with fairy lights! Travis and Allie took it to another level adding fairy lit plants by The Planted Co and lanterns and decor by Adorn Event Hire within the marquee – along side a gorgeous Myanmar Harp showing Travis’ heritage. Altogether giving the marquee a truly magical feel.
This Wedding blew us away! Surprise after surprise, from an insane dance-floor rap, to hilarious props, traditional Myanmar touches and every single part thoughtfully planned… Allie and Travis, you completely rocked it!

But first, here is how it all began…..
Once upon a time in February 2014, halfway through a lecture, a young woman named Allie dashed into the class, scanning the room for someone dependable to fill her in on what she had missed. Fate led her to a nerdy-looking Myanmar bloke named Travis. Travis, navigating his first week and first lecture in Australia, pretended not to understand Allie’s eager attempts at conversation. But as destiny would have it, a few weeks later, Travis saw Allie again among other busy students and gathered the courage to ask her to be his study partner. Little did they know, this simple study partnership blossomed into an extraordinary life partnership. Through a decade of highs and lows, they celebrated cheerful moments and comforted each other through the storms. Allie, a Fire Safety Engineer with a semi-obsession for fire trucks, has always been captivated by them, often stopping at every siren just to watch. During their holiday on the Gold Coast, Travis hired a fire truck to pop the question to Allie! And guess what? She said “Yes!
Travis, fate brought us together the first week you arrived in Australia. Our strong connection grew from friendship, and I found the man of my dreams who was right in front of me the whole time.
I am so proud of you and the man you are today. There are so many qualities I admire in you, you are ambitious, intelligent, and extremely hardworking. When you set your mind to something, you don’t rest until you reach your goal, however hard it may be to achieve it. I believe anything is possible when I’m with you. You are supportive, kind, and funny. You taught me how to not take life too seriously and to think of the positive outcomes. Your witty jokes come out of nowhere and put a smile on my face.
We’ve been through some extraordinarily challenging circumstances, and each time, our love and respect for each other become stronger. From this, I know that no matter how hard things might get, we can work through it together. We trust each other, and we can leverage each other’s strengths to make our dreams come true. We are stronger together.
For the rest of our lives, I promise to be by your side, to listen to you, and to respect you. I promise to support you, to lift you up, and to cherish you for who you are. I promise to clean up when you cook, even when you use all the pots, pans, and bowls in the kitchen. Remind me not to buy any more pots!
Most important of all, I promise to unconditionally love you and to be forever yours. I can’t imagine my life without you, and I look forward to the future by your side. I love you.
Allie, I love you unconditionally and without a what-if. You are truly a beautiful person, inside and out. You are caring, kind-hearted, honest, funny, and smart. I adore your golden retriever energy and your smile that brings comfort to everyone you meet. Since we were friends, you have been my only sunshine in the darkest times. You chose the weirdest least attractive boy in a very boring geotechnical engineering lecture and turned him into a better man. Allie, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me and meeting you will always be my greatest achievement.
I still remember you threw an eraser at me for staring at you too long in the library when I was your friend. That day, I fell in love with you in your beautiful red dress. But babe, you look stunning in your white dress today. I have never imagined marrying such a beautiful woman, and now I cannot even imagine my life without kissing your puffy cheeks while you are sleeping, smelling your fluffy hair in the morning, staring into your beautiful eyes for no reason, and making you smile just to see your dimples.
I promise to always support and compliment you. If you are Yin, I will be your Yang. If you are concrete, I will be your steel. If you choose to be Sylvie, I will be your Loki. Babe, I cannot promise that the future will always be a smooth sail, but I can assure you that I will always be there to support you through any storm. I will be the sword that guards our nest and the water that relieves your thirst.
I look forward to turning our dreams into reality, continuing to celebrate our milestones, and exploring the world together. For now, I will conclude my vow here/ because I cannot wait to call you my wife.
