These two quiet, Board game lovers from Brisbane hosted their beautiful wedding at the one and only Spicers Clovelly Estate in Montville (Sunshine Coast Hinterland).
Melissa was supposed to get ready in the spa suite but decided to swap with Mark, her husband-to-be, once she laid eyes on the gorgeous historical cottage, which was more her style. But Mark got to enjoy the luxury of the spa suite - both amazing choices! That is the beauty of Spicers Clovelly, they have something for everyone.
The famous Spicers Clovelly jacaranda tree was in full bloom which made THE perfect backdrop for this absolutely lovely bride and groom's stunning ceremony.
We then explored the Spicers Clovelly Estate (Sunshine Coast) grounds and took some jacaranda tree portraits with the bridal party. The bride and groom then embarked on a solo portrait mission with us to soak up the Spicers sunset and light up our camera lenses.
The loved up newly married couple (from Brisbane) then made their grand entrance to the reception in the naturally decorated library deck surrounded by lush forest. There were so many belly laughs throughout the reception - there would have been many sore cheeks the next morning (maybe a few sore heads too!).
All in all this was a spectacular day for the bride and groom and all of their family and friends. It was also a super special day for us having photographed the bride's sister's wedding last year and now getting to see all those lovely faces again - such wonderful people.
Oh and check out the guy doing "the worm" on the reception dancefloor - one for the ages!
Enjoy this beautiful day...

Bangalow (Byron Bay) Destination Wedding - Jess & Jamie (Brisbane)
Jess & Jamie held their wedding in gorgeous Bangalow (Byron Bay Hinterland), Northern New South Wales. This not only a wedding day but also a celebration of Jess & Jamie being together 10 years!
This cruisy couple are so relaxed that they decided to change their wedding venue within the last week leading up to their wedding. What a fantastic choice it was too getting hitched at Forget Me Not in Bangalow. The property features a historical house, manicured gardens and its own small lake.
The bride and groom's celebrant was the best man's father which added a great intimacy to their ceremony.
We wandered around the gardens taking some beautiful, relaxed portraits post ceremony. There were plenty of belly laughs with this great bride and groom and their fun-loving bridal party.
The reception was held at A&I Hall in Bangalow town. This gorgeous, ornate building was perfect for housing this bunch of crazy dancers, with its massive high ceiling and stage for the band. The night certainly kicked up a few gears once most guests stormed the dance floor!
Enjoy this absolutely wonderful couple's special day...

Gold Coast Hinterland Wedding in the Sunshine - Amber & Ethan (Brisbane)
This Gold Coast Hinterland wedding was held at The Farm House in the stunning Numbimbah Valley. The bride and groom (from Brisbane) produced the most gorgeous rustic DIY shindig for their family and friends.
Amber and Ethan collected individual wooden chairs, candlestick holders, vases and so much more. Their vision came to life on their wedding day and was nothing short of magnificent. The finished design was a perfect combination of this pair's unique personalities. They are such kind, generous and thoughtful people and this was reflected in everything and everyone who attended their wedding day.
After the ceremony we explored The Farm House property with this photogenic Brisbane couple for thier wedding party and couple portraits in the glorious Gold Coast Sunshine. This is a nature lover's paradise and absolutely perfect for reflecting the nature of the Brisbane-based bride and groom.
Tears and Laughter showered the wedding from the bridesmaids seeing Amber in her dress to Amber's Dads walking her down the isle to Ethan's heartfelt speech at their reception.
After photographing their engagement (on the Sunshine Coast) we knew we would have such a wonderful time working with them and capturing their wedding through our lenses. Their warmth and kindness is abundant and so special to experience.
This duo has the brightest of futures ahead of them - sunshine, lollipops and rainbows all the way.
Enjoy being taken to DIY heaven by this dynamic Brisbane couple!

South Gorge (Point Lookout), North Stradbroke Island (Brisbane) Wedding - Heidi & Jamie
Heidi and Jamie's (Brisbane) wedding on North Stradbroke Island was pure perfection. The sun didn't stop shining from dawn to dusk for their intimate wedding ceremony at South Gorge (Point Lookout).
There were some very touching moments between the bride and her mother. Heidi and her mother shared joyful tears when she had finished getting ready and when they walked down the sandy beach isle together. There were plenty of laughs and cheek-to-cheek smiles from the lovely bride and groom and all the guests who attented their stunning ceremony.
We adventured up to Point Lookout for some bridal party and couple portraits overlooking the amazing south gorge beach where their ceremony was held just an hour or so earlier. Then just the bride and groom joined us for a few more couple portraits at the beach near their deluxe accomodation, Stradbroke Island Beach Hotel.
This was the absolute fairytale wedding the Brisbane-based bride had always dreamed of and what a spectacular day it was for her dream to come true. From the flowers to Heidi's dress to the epic ceremony location. to marrying the man of her dreams. A bride could not hope for a more perfect day.
Enjoy the gorgeous beach wedding of these two beautiful ones...
