When Andy Dallisson and Alicia Turner
were setting a wedding date, December
21, 2018 was an obvious choice – it was
exactly six years since the start of
their relationship.
Selecting a destination for the event was just as simple; many of the
couple’s favourite memories were formed on the Fleurieu Peninsula,
so they knew it would be the perfect location for their nuptials.
The only hard part was deciding on which venue, but Andy and Alicia
settled on picturesque Allusion Wines at Yankalilla for their ceremony
and Second Valley’s iconic Leonards Mill for the reception.

‘We visited Allusion Wines early last year and fell in love with the
gorgeous views,’ says Alicia. ‘It was the perfect place for us to say
our vows. Our best friend Phoebe completed a usual twelve months
course to become a celebrant in just two months to make sure she
was certified in time. Having her at the arbour was perfect and added
to the relaxed and intimate atmosphere.’
Before and after the ceremony, guests enjoyed fresh seafood served
alongside local wines and beer, while saxophonist Kym Mitchell
played in the background. ‘The support of Mark and his family at
Allusion really helped take the stress out of planning,’ says Alicia.
‘Mark sourced local beer, antipasto and seafood for our guests to
enjoy and ensured the event was seamless for us.’
