This bridal photo shoot really has it all.

Fashion + Jewellery

The bride was dressed in strapless lace bridal gown with slimline silhouette and nude underlay, modest train and flowing full length veil from When Freddie Met Lilly. She was also frosted with sparkling pieces from one of our recommended jewellers, Maleny Jewellers

A simple, yet stunning, brilliant cut solitaire diamond engagement ring on a yellow gold band was paired with a dainty diamond-laid wedding band in a contemporary style. To finish the look, her groom adorned her wrist with a diamond tennis bracelet and her statement earrings were the perfect match to her intricate lace gown.

The Ceremony

Complete seclusion for this intimate ceremony in the woods. Vibrant florals decorated the aisle chairs, culminating in garden-style arrangements at the end of the aisle where the couple said their vows. The forest floor carpeted in leaves fallen from the pretty canopy add to the other worldly feel of the ceremony space. 

 

 

 

 

Poolside Wedding Afterparty with Pop Up Bar

Bringing the fun and festivities to a new level is The Tipsy Mare, a mobile pop up bar and styling service. Their RSA-trained staff create aesthetic cocktails that scream wedding poolside afterparty! Upon sight, the Let’s Get Tipsy bar will have your guests well and truly feeling the afterparty vibes. 

Fresh and colourful culinary creations were prepared as sharing style fare by wedding caterers, Providore Privee. These pretty dishes were both delicious and a feast for the eyes, adding even more beauty to the tablescape designed by the styling team at The Tipsy Mare

Watching the sunset by the pool with panoramic views of the 185-acre private rolling hills is the perfect way to end the day at Maleny Country Estate and kick on into the evening celebrations. Your guests won’t need to travel far to rest their heads once all is said and done, as the Estate can accommodate up to 70 guests onsite in their wedding accommodation. Although, for larger wedding ceremonies and receptions you can invite up to 350 guests to enjoy the festivities.
