Cat and Sean tied the knot at Gabbinbar Homestead Estate in Toowoomba. This is one of Queensland's top wedding venues and there is no question as to why. Gabbinbar is both historical and prestigious and the absolute perfect venue to host this rad bride and groom's wedding. (The owner and staff at Gabbinbar Homestead make the most helpful and professional wedding team you could hope for).
This warm and fun-loving couple are full of adventure, playfullness and style so Gabbinbar Homestead was a giant and glamorous, theatrical playground for them. Sean is Mr. Smooth Operator and Cat is Mrs. Dance-the-night-away and together they are a bundle of relaxed excitement. They balance each other perfectly.
The delightful bride and groom's family and friends gathered from many corners of the globe to witness and revel in the love they share so generously. One of Cat's 5 brothers unfortunately couldn't make it to the wedding in person but his wife held up her phone so he could watch the entire ceremony on Skype. +100 points for technology!
The rollercoaster of emotions did not stop throughout the entire wedding starting with a tear in Sean's eye when he saw Cat walking down their gorgeous outdoor isle. The laughter really marked their day though. The bride and groom, the bridesmaids, groomsmen, family, friends - everyone smiled and laughed the day away making for the absolute happiest day of Cat & Sean's lives.
Enjoy this natural yet theatrical feast of wedding grandeur at its best.

Little White Wedding Church, Maleny, Sunshine Coast Wedding - Tracey & Aaron (Brisbane)
The Little White Wedding Church in Maleny (Sunshine Coast) hosted the emotional ceremony on Tracey & Aaron's wedding day. One Tree Hill, just down the road in Maleny, then hosted this bride and groom's absolutely fun bridal party portrait session. This bunch knew how to celebrate and were non-stop laughing and joking with each other the entire time we were photographing them.
Tracey and Aaron's reception was held at the Maleny Community Centre which is one of the most spacious reception venue's on the Sunshine Coast. The night kicked on with a very emotional father-daughter dance and more belly laughs from the guests following some awesome speeches about this special pair.
Enjoy the joy...

Spicers Clovelly Estate, Montville, Sunshine Coast Wedding - Natasha & Sean
Natasha and Sean are two adventurous spirits who live on the Sunshine Coast but love to travel the world. They chose one of the absolute premium and most beautiful venues to marry each other in Montville (Sunshine Coast Hinterland), Spicers Clovelly Estate.
Sean and his groomsmen chose to get a hair and face trim at The Mad Barbers in Mooloolaba before getting ready and heading up to Spicers Clovelly Estate to join his lovely bride. This was the perfect way for the groom and groomsmen to start their day - a round of shots and all!
Natasha prepared and preened with her bridesmaids at Spicers Clovelly in style. Her absolutely amazing dress by Christos Bridal suited her perfectly. Everything about Spicers Clovelly is stunning - the furniture, the walls, the art, the gardens, the views. They are one of the most popular venues on the Sunshine Coast for a reason (many reasons!).
The Jacaranda Tree was the perfect spot for this wonderful bride and groom to exchange their vows under. Natasha and Sean could not have hoped for a more perfect day to host their wedding in front of their beloved family and friends. Their choice of flowers was stunning and beautifully designed by Mondo Floral Designs.
We explored the gorgeous grounds of Montville's Spicers Clovelly Estate after the ceremony where the bride and groom were bathed in the most glorious winter sunshine during the golden hour of sunset. The love and happiness these two beautiful humans share with each other is so obvious and radiates at all times.
The Library Deck is one of the most amazing buildings we've seen to date for hosting a wedding reception. Natasha and Sean clearly had the time of their lives at their reception dinner followed by the first dance and some crazy party dancing to top off what was the best day of their lives.
Enjoy the visual tale of this special duo...

Gold Coast Hinterland Wedding, Peppers Ruffles Lodge - Niusha & Lachie
Love conquered the forecast of rain on the Gold Coast (Pepper's Ruffles Lodge) for this beautiful bride and dapper groom's gorgeous wedding day. The sun was shining most of the day as was everyone's smiles.
Niusha & Lachie's ceremony brought tears to both of their eyes and mine too! Their love for each other is so blatant and very powerful. The bond they share is nothing short of inspiring and infectious.
Pepper's Ruffles Lodge offered Lachie & Niusha the wedding of their dreams with luxurious accomodation, expansive views of the gold coast skyline (surfers paradise) and fine dining with food to die for.
The details that Niusha and Lachie paid attention to were very special. Persian rugs adorned their ceremony floor. Candles in lanterns marked the entrance to their ceremony and reception. Every guest who attended their wedding received a small pot with a succulent and a cute card that said "let love grow". And this sums up the delightful bride and groom's relationship in a nutshell; they let their love grow and flourish without limitations.
So, so, beautiful.
Enjoy...
