Dreaming of a honeymoon that’s equal parts relax Dreaming of a honeymoon that’s equal parts relaxation and adventure?⁠ For our Alfresco Issue, @lisaperkovic is sharing three incredible escapes where nature isn’t just the backdrop, it’s part of the experience.⁠ ⁠ From cliffside hot tubs in Cornwall, to sunrise workouts and ocean breezes on a Mediterranean cruise, to wild red-dust magic at @mountmulliganlodge in the Australian outback… these stays offer the perfect balance for couples who love the outdoors (or who need a holiday that suits both an early-riser and a slow-starter!).⁠ ⁠ Think natural swimming pools, open-air saunas, hiking trails, outdoor gyms, pickleball at sea, billabong views and luxury tubs under the big sky.⁠ Alfresco living at its absolute honeymoon best.⁠ ⁠ Read the full feature today via the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ Photography: @theramblerco ⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A person relaxes in an outdoor bathtub made from a corrugated metal water tank, filled with warm water and bubbles. They are wearing a wide-brimmed brown hat and facing out toward a lush bushland view. The tub sits on a wooden deck beside a timber wall, with soft natural light streaming in. A small side table holds bath products, and the surrounding greenery creates a peaceful, private, and rustic retreat atmosphere.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #PolkaDotHoneymoons #FeelGoodWeddings #Honeymoon #HoneymoonIdeas #Honeymoons #Honeymooning #HoneymoonVibes #HoneymoonDiaries #LuxuryTravel #LuxuryHoneymoon #Travel #Travelling #TravelIdeas #TheAlfrescoIssue #AlfrescoWeddings #OutdoorWeddings #AlfrescoCeremony #OutdoorCeremony

Melbourne friends, we know you’ll feel this - sp Melbourne friends, we know you’ll feel this - spring (let alone summer) has barely whispered at us this year. So we went looking for those moments that only happen when the sun is warm on your skin. The puffer jackets come off, the evenings stretch long, and wedding season feels full and bright. Here are a few of our favourite moments (from real PDW weddings) that feel unmistakably like summer. 1. Quiet moments in the garden. Nikeisha & Jonathan, captured by @daisyandpineweddings 2. Ceremonies outdoors, surrounded by the best people. Michaela & Scott, captured by @kirrajayde at @wattleparkchalet 3. Dappled shade during vows. Ariana & Matt, captured by @vanessanorrisphoto 4. Wandering through the gardens in the heat of the day. Stacey & Tom, captured by @itsbeautifulhere 5. Toasts under festoon lights. Claudia & Will, captured by @jmtweddings 6. Dresses in every colour. Isabel & Jack, captured by @_wildheart.photography 7. Speeches as the sun sinks low. Claudia & Will, captured by @jmtweddings 8. Coloured glassware catching the light. Courtney & Al, captured by @kittyloveslove 9. Golden hour portraits. Briony & Zach, captured by @redeclectic 10. Bright florals and fresh fruit.

Can you feel it too? That growing pull back to nat Can you feel it too? That growing pull back to nature… to wild horizons, to quiet moments, to places that remind us of who we are when the world slows down.⁠ ⁠ Our latest Honeymoons feature for Polka Dot Wedding is a love letter to Mother Earth. Her sacred landscapes, her rhythms, and the deep sense of connection she offers to couples seeking something more meaningful after “I do.”⁠ ⁠ From the ancient beauty of the Dolomites to the soul-stirring Mongolian wilderness, from the rainforests and outback of Australia to the ethereal winters of Japan, this story honours honeymoons that are rooted in presence, simplicity, and awe.⁠ ⁠ A reminder that the most unforgettable journeys aren’t always the most elaborate. They’re the ones that bring us home to ourselves.⁠ ⁠ Captured beautifully by @lina_hayes⁠, this story first appeared on Mindfully Wed, and we’re so glad to now share it as part of Polka Dot Wedding!⁠ ⁠ Click the link in our bio to read more about these breathtaking honeymoon locations. ⁠ ⁠ Photography: @lina_hayes⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A bride and groom stand on a rocky cliff overlooking a dramatic river gorge in the Australian outback. The couple faces away from the camera, embracing as they look out over winding water, rugged red cliffs, and vast open plains dotted with greenery. The bride wears a lace gown with her hair in a low, floral-adorned updo, while the groom is dressed in a white shirt and khaki pants. The golden light of late afternoon casts a warm glow over the sweeping landscape, creating a serene and romantic scene.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #PolkaDotHoneymoons #FeelGoodWeddings #Honeymoon #HoneymoonIdeas #Honeymoons #Honeymooning #HoneymoonVibes #HoneymoonDiaries #LuxuryTravel #LuxuryHoneymoon #Travel #Travelling #TravelIdeas
