When thinking about Valentine's Day, one immediately thinks of being in love. However, it's really not a day about love. Stay with me… See, in my humble opinion, every day should be completely infused with love. You should bask in love every single days in big ways and small. Valentine's Day is really about romance. The gestures, the recognition that you are looking directly at the one person that you adore above all others, and will go that extra mile for. Sure, it might be an overly commercialised consumer-driven non-holiday, but it's a bit of fun and it's an opportunity…

Just engaged and celebrating their love are Dan and Melika. How sweet are these two, and how sweet is the location, Montville Lake Terrace! This place is quite magical, so we can see why Dan and Melika’s incredible Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, Matt Rowe Photography, found so much inspiration when shooting here. Impeccable interior design is just the cherry on top of the icing that is the amazing Montville location the Lake Terrace cottage is located in. This place just screams romance and relaxation, which is why it’s a great spot to stay for your wedding night, and make a little…

Happy Saturday, beautiful Sunshine Coast brides! We have a doozy for you today. Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, Karen Buckle Photography is one of our absolute favourites, and for good reason. Her images are undeniably stunning, and today’s Photo of the Week is absolutely no exception.  Aideen married Elijah, and looked amazingly beautiful and confident. This picture really says it all. What a memory they have in this one image, in this one moment. He is a lucky man, and he knows it. It’s all eyes on Aideen for her special day! We LOVE!     

This lovely Sunshine Coast bride and groom wanted something fun for their engagement shoot. That sure is what they got! We love what the lovely Kristy from A Look Photography has done to make this the most fun engagment shoot we have ever seen!  Those balloons look like they have enough helium to take the bride flying, but something tells us this lucky groom will never let her go. Happy Saturday, lovely Sunshine Coast brides! 

Once again, we are more than impressed by the incredible photographic skills of the incomparable Alan Hughes Photography. He says of his Photo of the Week, “Not all bride and grooms let me push them out in a boat with no oars at midday during their wedding… but Andrea & Daniel did.” Awesome! This is one Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, who should make your short list! He always gets the money shot! Happy Australia Day, lovely Sunshine Coast brides! If you are with us on this side of the globe, we hope you are celebrating in true Aussie fashion with…

Claire and Tyson were married at Cooroy Anglican Church by Pastor Josh Usher after an18-month engagement, preceding an 18-month romance. They knew early on they had the same spiritual values as they started their courtship on a solid foundation of friendship. Obviously a winning formula for a beautiful marriage!  They followed their church wedding with a reception for 100 guests at a private estate in Noosa with absolutely incredible views. The venue is beautiful, but a real blank canvas, that was transformed beautifully using lovely vintage styling with tea and the best sweets table we’ve seen!  The happy couple’s Cooroy/Noosa wedding…

The beautiful, colourful wedding of Ana and Josh is something a little bit extra special for you lovely Sunshine Coast brides today. They were blessed with perfect weather for their Noosa Main Beach wedding, after a week of stormy weather, so their dream of a beach wedding was fulfilled.  Ana didn’t have a specific theme in mind when planning her wedding, so she relied upon her stylist and florist to guide her in the right direction. The results are absolutely amazing, so it just goes to show that allowing seasoned professionals to do what they do best can really pay…
