You wake up on your Sunshine Coast hinterland wedding day... and it's raining. Eep! Things to consider: relocation of your outdoor ceremony location, umbrellas for your bridal party that will look attractive in the photos, where your location photos can be shot without the bottom of your beautiful gown being all muddied up, and... how on earth is your hair going to stay in place and not frizz up faster than a Mentos in a can of Coke?

Winterland wedding anyone? It's about to be that time of year in the land of Oz, however here on the Sunshine Coast there's definitely no snow. Fireplaces are far from commonplace and you know it's a cold day if most people are getting about in jeans and a cardigan. In our pretty little piece of the world, we enjoy warm weather at any time of the year. In fact, a sunny winter's day is what I would call perfection and perfect for a wedding.

No of course, it's the beauty that comes my way each and every day in the form of inspiring weddings on the Sunshine Coast, and all of the work being done by Sunshine Coast wedding professionals.

It was a special week for everybody in Australia this week, as we celebrated ANZAC Day. For our international visitors, I'll explain. ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, and April 25 is the day each year that we celebrate our military veterans. Those who fell, while protecting our country and fighting for our freedom, and those who continue to serve our country today at war, in peace-keeping missions, and providing aide to other countries. It is also the anniversary of the landing in Gallipolli in 1915.
