Cute, Fun, Colourful Noosa Beach Wedding

25th April 2012

Do you remember a little while ago we posted the world’s most awesome wedding invitation? To jog your memory, it was a stop motion clip set to Halls & Oats’ You Make My Dreams, featuring today’s Sunshine Coast real wedding couple, Bronnie and Sam. This gorgeous young couple were engaged for six months after having been together for almost three years following an introduction by a mutual friend at a coffee shop, and then Bronwyn started attending Sam’s church. I genuinely have not seen a more sweet couple in all my time, and when you see their wedding photos below,…

Photo of the Week

20th April 2012

Holy amazing tree! And look at that sunlight! And look at the vines, they are a life force of their own, undoubtedly much like the love these two have for one another. This image by Robeccer of Adori Studios would now have to be one of our faves by far. It was taken at the Brisbane Botanical Gardens by this absolutely drop dead talented Sunshine Coast wedding photographer.  Okay, so aside from the absolutely stunning tree, (we sure like trees at The Bride's Tree and are quite lost for words with this particular one!), our next fave thing about this…

Beautiful Custom-designed Nautical Wedding Invitations

18th April 2012

Once again I have fallen in love with one of Kerrie-Anne Designs' incredible wedding invitation suites. It's really not hard to do! This one is inspired by the 100 year old ship the couple were being married on in Sydney Harbour. Ithe stationery is beautifully designed with an elegant nautical theme in mind. Kerrie-Anne is so thoughtfully creative. The groom had written a poem for his betrothed, which was to be used in the stationery. Of course, Kerrie-Anne could have simply had it printed on a page. But alas no, instead she had a stamp made and stamped the poem on…

Jules and Robert’s Thailand Honeymoon

17th April 2012

Do you remember our lovely real wedding couple, Jules & Robert, from last week? We shared their beautiful Sunshine Beach wedding with you with classic vintage beach styling. Now, as you will have seen, they had a lot of rain on their wedding day. Since they had been hoping for amazing beach photos, they were a little nervous with how their wedding day photos would turn out. Of course, the shots of the day were absolutely amazing, but they didn't know that at the time! So they booked a honeymoon photo shoot in Thailand to be sure they would get the…
