They followed their church wedding with a reception for 100 guests at a private estate in Noosa with absolutely incredible views. The venue is beautiful, but a real blank canvas, that was transformed beautifully using lovely vintage styling with tea and the best sweets table we’ve seen! 

The happy couple’s Cooroy/Noosa wedding was shot by amazing Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, Shane Shepherd Photography. We love Shane’s funky, yet honest, organic style and ability to capture all the little moments so beautifully. 

“The most important thing that we focused on when planning our wedding was to make sure that we had all our closest family and friends there, and that it was just a fun, beautiful and relaxing day for everyone to enjoy.”

“We didn’t have to think twice about our florist & stylist and my dressmaker because they are close friends and both unbelievably good at their job.“

. “For me, the special moments were the quiet ones I had with my mum as I was getting ready, my dad before he took my down the aisle, and seeing Tyson’s eyes light up when we were pronounced husband and wife.“

Our Wedding Secrets Revealed 

Biggest Splurge: The venue and catering

Best money saver: Alcohol was the biggest money saver

for us because we bought it all ourselves and therefore didn’t have to pay the usual bar

prices. Our desserts were made by a beautiful friend of mine and so that saved us a bit!

Shoes:  Mathers Shoes

Bridesmaid dresses: Forever New

Bridesmaids’ accessories: Michael Hill

Groom and Groomsmen’s suits: Roger David

DIY: The table runners and napkins were

made by my stand in grandmother, and we bought the little African animals that we gave

as guests gifts at the markets in Zimbabwe (where I come from originally.)

Number of guests: 100

Wedding Budget: $25,000, mostly contributed by the bride’s parents

“Our venue was probably what we argued most about because we didn’t want to have our reception at a ‘typical’ Noosa wedding location.” 

“We both love good food so we were very picky in terms of caterers.”
