Sun setting over the Maroochy River and just married. It’s a many splendored thing, don’t you think? 

Sally and Matthew sure thought so when they were married at The Rocks Function Centre. The sprawling property has a rare serenity about it that means you can marry the love of your life in your own little private world. And a flower crown and Grace Loves Lace dress, like Sally. 

The couple invited 80 of their family and friends to celebrate their union at their Yandina Wedding. 

Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, Nicky Stone Photography, beautifully captured every moment of their big day from the anticipation of the morning to dancing the night away. nicky_stone_photographer (8 of 81)nicky_stone_photographer (9 of 81)nicky_stone_photographer (10 of 81)“The Bride’s Tree helped us find most of our suppliers and inspiration!”
