Tara and Adem don't play by the rules. This unique, warm and super friendly duo officially got married at the Flinders Street Station photo booth weeks before their BIG wedding at Melbourne Town Hall. They did this so that their Mums and Grandma could participate in marrying them in front of 225 of their dearest friends and family.
So, the bride and groom's bridal party and couple portraits were taken mostly while casually walking the streets of Melbourne (Tara & Adem's request) before their ceremony. Photos in a Melbourne laneway, their beloved Flinders Street photobooth and at Ben and Jerry's Icecreamery were a must.
The ceremony banner was created by the bride herself - AHHHmazing. Some other innovative ideas featured at the reception consisted of a craft table, pinata forest, miniature photobooth beside their cake, micro coffee cart and an epic swing band! Oh, and Tara rocked a floral boa instead of a bouquet - seriously above and beyond awesome.
This was an extremely unique, fun-filled, heartfelt, innovative and creative wedding day with so much love given and received by the bride and groom and all who attended this epic occasion.
We wish you all the love, happiness and laughter in the world Tara & Adem!
Enjoy...

What a year it has been! We have worked with so many beautiful couples and heard the most heartwarming and inspiring stories along the way. We've had the privilege of photographing stunning Australian weddings from The Sunshine Coast (Queensland) to Byron Bay (New South Wales) to Melbourne (Victoria).
Some of our favourite wedding moments from 2015 are below. 2016 is looking to be an amazing year of weddings. We're starting the new year photographing a Sunshine Coast Hinterland wedding in Maleny and on Queenland's gorgeous Fraser Island!
We hope you all enjoy many happy moments and continue to learn, love and laugh as much as possible next year.
All the very best in 2016!

Why is your choice of wedding dress so important? As a bride you want to feel beautiful, comfortable and special on your wedding day. There are always seasonal trends coming and going throughout each wedding season but every bride is unique and so must choose THE dress that they KNOW is the one for them. The fit, the cut, the colour, the fabric, the trimmings - these all must be right for your wedding day.
In this blog we have featured some elegant dresses from the last Australian wedding season to give the Brides of tomorrow a little inspiration.
Enjoy! and let us know which dress speaks to you the most in the comments at the bottom of the post.

This stunning vintage dress was made by the bride's mother and worn with the most extraordinary backdrop of the Glasshouse Mountains in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.
Torrential rain did not stop this lovely bride enjoying her wedding day and getting the most out of her dress on beautiful Mooloolaba Beach, Sunshine Coast (Queensland).
