Our Summer 2022 edition of our online magazine  is our 35th volume of our pretty little rag. It’s the go-to place for wedding planning inspiration – especially if you happen to be getting married here on the Sunshine Coast.

The Bride’s Tree Magazine has been bringing you free wedding content since 2012, and it’s still absolutely free for you to view and download.

Here’s a sneak peek of what you can expect in this edition. Cover image by Elk & Fir.

Come Away With Me | Styled Cover Shoot

We took a little road trip to Dusty Hill Vineyard, where our creative crew for this edition put together a luxury boho shoot, complete with a unique mode of transportation that’s sure to elevate – quite literally – any nuptial celebrations.

Classic Wedding in Maleny

Sidney + Jake shared their iconic Maleny wedding with us. This one is worth a look for Sidney’s dress alone – the train is to die for! Oh, but also the venue, flowers, styling and bridal shoot are pretty special.

Modern Noosa Wedding

In a private residence on the waterfront in Noosa, Zoe + Billy were married with their super stylish, super fun bridal party. If you’re looking for modern coastal wedding inspiration, this feature can’t be missed.

Homestead Private Property Wedding

Oh my, Melissah + Ben’s wedding has all the pretty details. Another private property wedding, (two in one edition, what am I like?), this time in complete contrast it’s in the countryside. Outstanding florals, creative and visually exciting catering, and even a couple of gorgeous highland cows. This is the stuff wedding day dreams are made of.

Noosa River Restaurant Wedding

Our last real wedding for this edition is Heidi + Mac’s quintessential relaxed coastal vibes wedding day in Noosa. It definitely has all the cool, chill feels we’re looking for in a Noosa wedding – plus arguably the best dining experience that can be found on the Noosa River.

The post SUNSHINE COAST WEDDING MAGAZINE FREE + OUT NOW | VOLUME 35, SUMMER 2022 appeared first on The Bride's Tree.

It’s no secret the Sunshine Coast wedding industry has taken a huge hit in 2020 with Covid-19 being such a bully and whatnot. However, the vendors who work in this region would not be defeated. Knowing we’re made of tougher stuff in this region, Kristy from Maple Weddings and Events  and Lisa Brereton Celebrant put their heads together to come up with a way to share the love and support one another in this difficult time.

They selected some talented collaborators to showcase the Sunshine Coast Hinterland region, which is one of Australia’s most popular wedding destinations. The crew took to The Old Dairy Maleny and created a wedding vision that spoke to the heart of this stunning location, showing it off in all its glory.

This is a special one, you guys. It’s our 30th volume of our free online bridal magazine! Over the past 7.5 years we’ve published 81 inspiring real weddings and 63 styled shoots – 47 of which we planned and coordinated ourselves. I’m exhausted just thinking about those stats! BUT – I wouldn’t change it for the world. 

This edition has some seriously special wedding inspiration that will help you on your Sunshine Coast wedding planning journey. Below is a sneak peek of the main features you will find in The Bride’s Tree Magazine, Volume 30 – Winter 2019.

Urban Cloudscape

A blend of modern minimalism and ethereal delicacy. In an urban setting, our betrothed is enveloped in a shroud of hanging euphorbia, conceiving a dreamy simplicity.

Sarah and Ben’s idyllic Noosa beach wedding is a classic-meets-coastal affair with touches of the still very much on-trend tropical greenery. Anyone looking for the perfect venue to host their relaxed beachfront wedding will want to check out this wedding for inspiration.

We worked with local wedding professionals to create two styled shoots with summer styles you will absolutely adore. Check out a snapshot of the content found in this edition… 

Jessica + Daniel’s Noosa wedding had some of the prettiest flowers we’ve ever seen. 

Another impressive real wedding with drone shots of the marquee that are life itself. 

It’s like a fairtale this one! This real life couple joined us for a shoot in the country that’s all kinds of colourful prettiness. 

Fashion and flowers and a riverside reception – our cover shoot is super chic in a luxury Noosa setting.

The post Summer 2018 Bridal Magazine Out Now! appeared first on The Bride's Tree.

Winter is here, but nobody is going cold. Especially not here in Queensland on the Sunshine Coast, where as the famous saying goes, it’s beautiful one day, perfect the next. 

It’s always an exciting day when we launch our latest edition of our free online bridal magazine, especially created for you my darling Sunshine Coast brides! Oh, incase it wasn’t clear – today is that day! This is our 22nd edition of our magazine, and it’s an absolute pearler. 

The Bride’s Tree team are totally on board with winter weddings, in fact we’d go so far as to recommend them, because the weather here on the Sunshine Coast at least is pretty darn close to perfect for a wedding. It’s mild during the day with mostly sunshine, and the evenings allow for a cosy reception, preferably somewhere with a fireplace, like Weddings at Tiffany’s, the place where we first lay our scene… 

 Depths of Winter

We took a gaggle of some of our fave A-list Vendors up the Range to Weddings at Tiffany’s to shoot an opulent, romantic winter wedding inspiration shoot. 

Kaity + Wade’s Montville Wedding

Bright florals is a beautiful way to add some colour and life to your winter wedding. This one is just gorgeous. Wait till you see the ceremony arbour arrangement! 

Kate + Luke’s Noosa Wedding

Once this bride and groom chose their wedding venue, they knew they wanted to make good use of the surrounding pristine beach locations. Contemporary and clean, I LOVE this wedding and the candid style of photography. 

Honeymoon Whitsundays 

Earlier this year, I took a trip with Tourism Whitsundays and found the absolute perfect location for a romantic, adventure and food-filled honeymoon here in Queensland.

The post Winter 2017 Bridal Magazine Out Now appeared first on The Bride's Tree.

The Sunshine Coast wedding industry is in full swing with wedding season firmly upon us. Spring is always a busy time of year for weddings in our little piece of Queensland wedding paradise. We know there are a whole lotta brides out there now realising that a mere 12 months remain until their turn to walk down the aisle, so planning is underway as well. That’s why it’s the perfect time for our Spring edition of The Bride’s Tree free online bridal magazine to enter your life. 

Elegant in the Country

This, our 19th edition, will have you positively dripping with ideas as you pore over the whole 102 pages of pretty. We kick off with a quaint country wedding with a kind of high end, yet effortlessly elegant wedding inspiration shoot held at a newly available private property. This is the first time this venue has been photographed, so we are quite chuffed to have the scoop on this stone cottage in the hinterland, boasting an horizon fringed with an abundance of treetops. Rich and stately furniture pieces met with simple elegant cakes and impressive floral arrangements to create a country wedding style in the Sunshine Coast hinterland that is both contemporary and timeless. 

The Bedouin Bride

We found our bridal magazine cover shot from this organic beach bridal inspiration shoot. The Bedouin Bride features a raw style with a canvas tipi in the dunes, a horse and just to round things up to exceptional, drone aerial shots of Shelly Beach in Caloundra. Oh, did I mention the bouquet of coral poppies? Pinch me now. 

Aislinn + Tom’s Marquee Wedding

The hero of this wedding is by far the floral arrangements that we are still having trouble tearing our eyes away from. Every time it’s gazed upon, this floral chandelier reveals yet another delicious detail. The rest of the couple’s marquee wedding set on the grounds of a stunning old Maleny homestead is pretty darn special, too. 

Sunshine + Happiness

If you want to infuse a little sunshine into your wedding by using the happiest of colour themes, this is how you do it. A yellow wedding is a challenge to get right – it’s all about using the right blooms in quantities that still leave room for elegance. Mission accomplished at this shoot at Sunshine Coast hinterland wedding venue, Weddings at Tiffany’s. 

Catching Dreams + Fading Stars

When conventional isn’t in your repertoire, teaming vintage-inspired furniture with fur and lace and dream catchers on the beach is completely within the scope of idiosyncratic wedding styling. On the sand at serene Currimundi Lake this dreamy, sensual bridal inspiration took place. The film, found within the pages of our online magazine, is a must-watch.

The post Styled Shoot: Old World Romance appeared first on The Bride's Tree.

Our amazing, gorgeous Summer edition of The Bride’s Tree Magazine is out today!

I am so thrilled to share this beautiful bunch o’ pages with you. I hope you find as much inspiration from flipping through its pages as I did putting it together. There are four stunning real weddings in there – two Maleny weddings, a Montville wedding, a Flaxton wedding.

We also coordinated two styled shoots that could not be more opposite from one another – the first took place on the shores of Shelly Beach, Caloundra, while the other was an Australian bush theme at a very secluded Yandina property overlooking the Maroochy River. 

Everything is just so beautiful. What a wonderful world of weddings we live in!
