For The Garden Issue, we’re looking back at Bec For The Garden Issue, we’re looking back at Bec and Elliot’s glorious picnic wedding under the wisteria arch at Burnley Gardens. ⁠ ⁠ A day built almost entirely from op-shopped and thrifted pieces, a bouquet dripping in ribbon, and a vintage bathtub full of chilled drinks. ⁠ ⁠ Bec walked down the aisle in colour, not white, exactly as she’d always planned. And the ducklings who crashed the reception? Still one of our favourite details ever. See the rest of this beautiful day at the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @amandaalessiphotography / Bride’s Dress: @elliatt / Accessories: @theholdlabel / Band: @heyjack_co / Hairstylist: @meganharrisonbridal / Catering: Your Private Chef / Catering: @lazydayz_grazing / Dessert Table: @cupcakecentral / Dessert Table: @lamannapatisserie / Flowers: @floral_alchemy_ / Wedding Ring: @cullenjewellery / Engagement Ring: @cullenjewellery / Wedding Coordinator: @liamxquinn / Ceremony Officiant: @meganjordancelebrant / Groom’s Attire: @vanheusenau / Groom’s Shoes: @roddandgunn⁠ ⁠ [Image description in comments.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheGardenIssue #GardenWedding #GardenWeddingInspiration⁠
“Build marriage on a firm foundation of love, tr “Build marriage on a firm foundation of love, trust and loyalty.” – @anabelle.dunbar & @tylerdunba.r ⁠ ⁠ The night before their wedding, Anabelle and her bridesmaids headed to the Rocklea Flower Markets, picked out their flowers and then spent the evening putting the bouquets together while doing face masks. ⁠ ⁠ That alone would have won us over, but then there’s the incredible satin gown, Spanish-inspired lace veil, all-black bridal party and gorgeous garden setting at Element Events!⁠ ⁠ Head to the full feature for a closer look at all the details we can’t stop thinking about.⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @in.full.frame / Bridal Salon: @moonandpearlbridal / Venue: @elementeventsvenue⁠ ⁠ Image descriptions are in the comments. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheGardenIssue #GardenWedding #GardenWeddingInspiration⁠
Leah and Cameron brought plenty of personality to Leah and Cameron brought plenty of personality to their Cleveland Estate celebration: from Cameron’s custom burgundy suit and homemade chilli oil favours, and (our favourite) a guest wedding quest.⁠ ⁠ And when the night was winding down, they slipped away for one final private dance together – how romantic!⁠ ⁠ Head to Polka Dot Featured to see the whole day now.⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @miasara / Alterations: @alterationsbyemily.melb / Bride’s Dress: @kwhbridal / Bride’s Reception Dress: @saulee / Ceremony Officiant: @melbournemarriagecelebrant / Dance Lessons: @thesecretgardenofdance / DJ: @spinningdiscentertainment / Engagement Ring: @mrfisch.jewellery / Flowers: @handpickedethicalfloristry / Groom’s Attire: @oscarhunttailors / Hairstylist: @elegancia_makeup_hair / Makeup Artist: @cassandrarenee.mua / Venue: @clevelandestate / Wedding Cake: @t.withcake / Cinematographer: @solastaweddingfilms⁠ ⁠ [Video description: shots from Leah & Cameron’s wedding flash across the screen as “Dream Of You” by Burgundy Blues plays.] ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheGardenIssue #GardenWedding #GardenWeddingInspiration⁠
There’s something pretty special about a wedding There’s something pretty special about a wedding with a view, and perched among the mountains, @bindocreek offers a sweeping 360˚ view! With all the cosy details we love: timber beams, a sandstone fireplace, and a silo-turned-bar ready for the first round of celebrations.⁠ ⁠ And because the best wedding weekends don’t have to end when the dancing does, there are on-site cabins and the spacious Watersedge Cottage for everyone to settle into!⁠ ⁠ Ready to take a closer look? You’ll find Bindo Creek in the Polka Dot Directory via the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ And if you’re a wedding business wondering whether Polka Dot Membership could be a good fit for you in 2026, you can find all the details there too.⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @thom.dwyer⁠ ⁠ Image descriptions can be found in the comments. ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWedding #WeddingVendors #WeddingDirectory
We get to see a lot of wedding images, and there i We get to see a lot of wedding images, and there is something about this – the warm hug of seeing your guests relaxing, eating good food, having a celebratory drink and gathering together for you on your day – that makes these some of our very favourite shots of Emily and Albin's wedding!⁠ ⁠ It's part of the reason we love @leofarrellphoto and how he sees the world too.⁠ ⁠ See the full celebration at the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ [Carousel description: guests sit at the long communal tables within a restaurant, eating, chatting and laughing, enjoying themselves.]⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheGardenIssue #GardenWedding #WeddingReception
Nobody talks about what happens after the wedding. Nobody talks about what happens after the wedding. After months of planning, anticipation and excitement, suddenly the day you’ve been waiting for is over. For some couples, the quiet that follows can feel surprisingly difficult.⁠ ⁠ You can have had the most incredible wedding day and still feel flat afterwards. You can be grateful, happy and excited for married life, and still miss the anticipation of what was.⁠ ⁠ On Polka Dot Wisdom, relationship therapist @amandalambros explores the post-wedding blues, why they happen and how couples can navigate this transition with a little more understanding and compassion.⁠ ⁠ Read more via the link in our bio. ⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A couple holds hands while walking together after their wedding.
