For the very first time, we included a film crew in one of the styled shoots published in our free online bridal magazine. The latest issue was released this week and included a most fabulous film of a most fabulous styled shoot, shot at farm wedding venue, Kenilworth Homestead. It is all about the little details with a contemporary-meets-vintage country feel. Sunshine Coast wedding videographers, Jasper & Ruby Visions, were not lacking in pretty little things to point their cameras at. And we absolutely love what they have done with this film!  Take a peek at the film they put…

Something we have noticed cropping up more and more lately is the surprise backyard wedding. All the guests arrive, thinking they are turning up for a birthday party or engagement party, while it actually turns out to be the wedding itself! I even attended one such wedding myself just a couple of weeks ago in Coorory. It was really lovely and laid back, and just what this particular low key couple wanted.  Many brides and grooms are choosing to do it their own way, but make still it special and beautiful by getting a professional planner and stylist on board,…

Yandina Station is beautifully maintained with luxury cottage accommodation, but also has a rad rustic old barn to hold wedding receptions in. This really…

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. Typically the day starts with thousands of Dawn Services held around…

Merryn and Matt were married in a lovely beach ceremony at Hidden Grove, Noosa, with an intimate gathering of their closest family and friends, numbering just 27.
