“Just remember, no matter what you do, it’s so “Just remember, no matter what you do, it’s so nice to look back and feel like your day was reflective of who you are.” – @bethanyishear⁠
⁠
Not every love story starts with the perfect proposal - sometimes it takes a maple leaf, an egg salad sandwich, and a whole lot of laughter to get there.⁠
⁠
Bethany and Niko's Melbourne wedding was a true reflection of them: creative, relaxed, colourful, and surrounded by their favourite people. From dried flowers to doughnut vans, cats to family-made details, every part of the day was filled with love.⁠
⁠
And it's now live over on Polka Dot Featured!⁠

We're revisiting one of our favourite podcast epis We're revisiting one of our favourite podcast episodes from last year – where we welcomed the delightful @customcelebrations_by_dee to talk all things values and how to vet vendors.⁠
⁠
 Based in Melbourne's northern suburbs, Dee is the perfect guide for today's chat on hiring inclusive, values-aligned vendors. She joins Dot to share her insights on⁠:⁠
🌟 What inclusivity means in the wedding world, extending beyond LGBTQI+ representation to disabilities, neurodivergence, cultural backgrounds and more⁠.⁠
🌟 Red flags to watch for when vetting potential vendors' websites, marketing materials and initial communications⁠.⁠
🌟 Thoughtful questions to ask vendors to gauge if they will create an affirming atmosphere for your day⁠.⁠
⁠

In a world full of pings and pixels, there’s som In a world full of pings and pixels, there’s something undeniably special about holding a wedding invitation, RSVP card, or vow booklet in your hands. These aren’t just pieces of paper, they’re keepsakes. The kind of treasures that end up tucked away in shoeboxes, discovered years later, and instantly remind you that the day really mattered.⁠
⁠
For our Traditions Issue, stationery artist and illustrator Kirsty Wyatt of @forkeepsillustration shares why stationery is far more than aesthetic. It’s about intention, meaning, and marking your love story in a way that lasts.⁠
⁠
Kirsty describes how stationery sets the tone for your wedding and leaves behind a legacy that can’t be deleted from the cloud.⁠

Forget the sunset portraits (actually, don’t - w Forget the sunset portraits (actually, don’t - we love those too), but after dark, sneak aways for a snuggle on the lounge or a champagne pop are the 2025 version. These are the moments when the party is at its height and you get to slip away, just for a minute, to sit together and take it all in.

All magic moments from real PDW weddings.
