When you are choosing your bridal bouquet, you need to look at the choice from a few angles. The flowers you use of course, and whether or not they would be available at the time of year, and also the composition of your chosen flowers. The cascade bouquet gave way for the posy for awhile, but it's making a strong come back. Today's bouquet of the week is the creation of the clever Jill at iblossom. It's a beautiful cascading bouquet featuring White Cymbidium Orchids, Savita, Vendella and Caramello Roses with touches of Nandinus Berry and vine. We present it to you in…

Working with some of the best local wedding suppliers, we created some absolutely amazing styled wedding shoots for our first online magazine.

The styling, fashion, flowers and beauty were possibly even better than we had originally imagined. As we predicted, we ended up completely spoiled for choice with the images. Shane Shepherd Photography really outdid himself with this one, and we just couldn't…

Sophia and Tim have been madly in love for ten years, and consider themselves best friends. They were married in a sweet little catholic church – St. Patricks Catholic Church in Pomona – and held their prettily styled wedding reception for 105 guests at Sails Restaurant in Noosa.

Her mother was the saviour there, helping to get things on track. The concept ended up being clean, crisp white with pops…
