Fiona and Gareth’s dreamy Gold Coast wedding definitely stands out as one of our all-time favourites! Their love-filled celebration was fun, relaxed and so beautifully styled, with several guests travelling internationally to join them for their special celebration in the hinterland.
These guys started their day with a sweet, intimate ceremony inside our rustic stone chapel, with simple floral arrangements adding a hint of colour and texture down the aisle. After exchanging vows in front of their nearest and dearest, guests made their way to our manicured lawns for an alfresco cocktail hour complete with lawn games and live music, while the newlyweds snuck away to capture some private photos around the estate. Surrounded by lush forest, secluded gardens and moody lighting, Fiona and Gareth (together with photographer Luke Middlemiss) made the most out of our natural backdrops to capture some incredibly dreamy snaps.
Back at the reception, our white silk-lined wedding marquee was styled with long feasting tables sitting underneath hanging foliage and delicate crystal chandeliers, creating a warm, relaxed ambience for the evening’s festivities. Tables were lined with trailing greenery and scattered candles, with a statement bridal table set in front of a dreamy fairy-lit backdrop.
As the night went on and dinner was devoured, Fiona and Gareth cut their epic 2-tier naked cake before dancing the night away with loved ones and ending their night with an epic sparkler exit. What a day!
