A wedding designed like a work of art!⁠

Jina and Aaron brought colour, culture, and creativity to Quat Quatta – with fruit-filled florals, a collaborative guest painting, and the kind of joy that can be felt through every photo.⁠

Captured by @whysogeneric and @tailoredweddingfilms, it’s a celebration that proves love really is the ultimate design.⁠

After years apart from family and friends, Ian & A After years apart from family and friends, Ian & Alex knew their wedding was going to be big. Think a long weekend on a family property outside Bathurst, camping under the stars, food trucks, fairy lights, fire pits, and even tree planting in place of gifts. Every detail was carefully crafted and filled with meaning.⁠
⁠
Captured beautifully by @tillyrobertsphoto, this story first appeared on Mindfully Wed, and we’re so glad to now share it as part of Polka Dot Wedding. ⁠

There’s just something about dinner outside, isn There’s just something about dinner outside, isn’t there? Tables dragged out under the sky, napkins blowing around, the sound of chairs on grass, and candles that don’t always behave. These alfresco tablescapes are a few of our favourites from real Polka Dot Wedding couples and inspiration shoots - all different, all embracing the potential chaos of Mother Nature, all a little bit magic.

Want to know where any of these came from? Let us know and we’ll send you the link. And if you’re wanting more, there’s a stack of alfresco wedding ideas waiting over at Polka Dot Wedding.

There’s something effortlessly romantic about a garden wedding: the quiet hum of laughter on the lawn, the glow of lights as the sun dips low.⁠
⁠
@daisyandpineweddings captured every bit of magic as Nikeisha and Jonathan celebrated their love at Mewburn Park Homestead. And the full day is now live on Polka Dot Featured!⁠
