Inspired by the Monarch Butterfly, this 1970's hippy style wedding inspiration shoot takes on a rusty warm colour palette.

Rhiannon and James' guests all agree their flowers were the best they'd ever seen.

Their photographer took them out bush for a fun bridal party shoot in keeping with their rustic theme.

This vintage-inspired DIY wedding is adorable from top to toe, and they chose the perfect location to bring their sweet vision to life.

If you love a wedding with a theme that won’t quit, this Rockabilly wedding shoot will provide loads of inspiration. From birdcage veil to ruby peeptoe shoes, the fashion is to-die-for. The gorgeous bride and bridesmaid sport retro-style hair and makeup, and show off their tattoos and rainbow locks with pride.

Tom and Katie wanted their guests to have a lot of fun at their wedding, and what says fun more than lawn games? Croquet and boche and badminton had guests mingling and enjoying themselves at the Yandina Station wedding on the Sunshine Coast. CL Weddings and Events provided the lawn games gear, which was a real hit with all the guests, young and young at heart!  //// The pretty vintage styling included a lot of DIY by the couple and their families, with the rustic country venue lending itself to the theme quite nicely. In fact, Yandina Station is a…

Good day to you, lovely Sunshine Coast brides! It delights me to kick off this beautiful Monday morning with an absolutely gorgeous Sunshine Beach wedding.

These are some of the most gorgeous photos we have ever featured on The Bride’s Tree; we are extremely excited to share them with…

It was a quick engagement for Emily and Mark, who planned their Mooloolaba wedding in only 7 months. Having known each other for 14 years since meeting at church, they simply did not see the need to muck about. The beautiful bride says they each complement one another and they are, quite simply, best friends. Aw! Mark’s pastor dad married the pair at Penny Lane Park, and then they kicked on with a shin dig at waterfront venue, Mooloolaba Surf Club. Their strict budget of $10,000 stretched to accommodate 100 guests, who started the day with a super sweet treat…

On the morning of Carly and Anthony’s Sunshine Coast wedding, Carly’s lovely bridesmaid, Kayla, made the lovely gesture of getting a cooked breakfast going. Eggs and bacon were on the sizzle, when an oil fire started… and that was the end of breakfast. The girls resorted to ice-cream and champagne for breakfast after that. And that was the last (not so) bad thing to happen that day.
