Active Sunshine Coast couple, Andrea and Dwayne, wanted their love story captured in a way that would speak to the true essence of them as a couple. A bike ride, a spot of fishing and a frolick on the beach at Currimundi Lake was just the ticket for their engagement shoot with Tara Lee Photography.  It’s all very sweet, but what strikes me most is how happily in love this gorgeous pair evidently are.  //// Next March, Andrea and Dwayne will be saying their I Dos at AnnaBella The Wedding Chapel, and following it up with a Pelican Waters reception…

You know, I’m quite fond of the floral-wreath-sporting bride. It’s a pretty alternative to the more traditional hair adornments, such as a veil or other hair piece that’s just swell.  There is something romantic about the fact that it will live and die with your wedding day. There will never be another piece like it. It’s unique to you and your special day.  The other thing I love about the floral wreath is how versatile it is. For example, here are nine very different ways to wear a floral wreath. All of these delicate beauties were lovingly created by the…

The best of both worlds – a chapel wedding in the country, followed by gorgeous Noosa beach bridal party photos at Little Cove, and a marquee reception at a private Noosa residence.

Raving mad to be precise. Their ceremony took place at AnnaBella, The Wedding Chapel, in Ilkley after a 12-month engagement, during which family and friends pitched in to help make…

I have to tell you, one thing that has always super impressed me is anything monogrammed. I just feel like if you have something monogrammed with your initials, you’ve really made it, you know? #winningatlife.  So these little beauties really have me marvelling. They come to us from the clever folk at our fave DIY blog, Oh Happy Day!  Printable monograms for your napkins! You could put these together in a single crafternoon if you happen to be crafty. And even if you’re not (like me), because they seem extremely easy.  For your wedding, you could whip these babies up for an…
