We’ve had a facelift, and aren’t we bloody gorgeous!  We just felt like a little freshen up here at The Bride’s Tree, so we have a brand new look. What do you think, does it suit us?  Since we have such stunning new branding, I felt like I needed to present a fresh face in our upcoming Autumn magazine. So I asked the lovely Terri Hanlon to visit me in my office to take some portraits for my Editor’s Letter.  I think this is the one you will see in our next magazine edition…

Of all the silly nonsense… an Alice in Wonderland themed engagement party? It seems everything it is, it isn’t, and contrarywise what it isn’t it should be. What a strange world we live in… Amy and Josh’s engagment shoot concept was born from Amy’s lifelong fascination with Alice in Wonderland. I must agree, we can all learn a lot from Lewis Carroll’s famous children’s book. Melanie McNiven helped the couple’s dream come to life with this shoot at Wirreanda Park in Buderim.  “I wonder if I’ve been changed in the night. Let me think. Was I the same when I…

Sydney couple, Jessica and Evan, spent eight months apart directly prior to their nuptials at Noosa Woods Grove, while Evan was on deployment in his position with the Royal Australian Navy. Their distance made their wedding and two-month long honeymoon all the sweeter.  Jessica planned the most perfect day, and looked absolutely stunning. Her bridal look is insanely perfect from her to-die-for Johanna Johnson dress to her flawless makeup. I especially love her giant bun, later pulled down to reveal gorgeous bouncing curls. Well done, girl, you rocked that whole bride deal.  James Day was there to capture Jessica and…

Enchanting and alluring, our Seaside Sirens shoot from our Summer 2015 magazine was so incredibly stunning, we couldn’t even fit it all in our pages.

Until then, scoot on over to our Facebook and Instagram pages, where we will continue bringing you daily inspiration and enjoy today’s prettiniess right here.  The Dream Team Photography // Terri Hanlon Photography Florist // Magnolia Grove Fashion // Erin Clare Couture Hair // Sass…

Roma couple, Hayley and Aaryn, planned the cutest wedding ceremony at The Wedding Chapel, Woombye. To be fair, I don’t think you could have anything less than adorable nuptials at this cute-as-a-button Sunshine Coast chapel.  Following their sweet ceremony, Novotel Twin Waters Resort was the coastal location for Hayley and Aaryn and their 130 guests to gather for their wedding reception and the perfect place to stay pre-wedding and for their wedding night with plenty of onsite accommodation available.  The happy couple found the ease of having a wedding reception venue that takes care of all the set up and pack down…
