Diamonds might be the classic choice as an engagem Diamonds might be the classic choice as an engagement ring, but they’re far from the only option. Coloured gemstones are having a well-deserved moment, and honestly, there’s a lot to love about them.⁠ ⁠ Sapphires, emeralds, rubies and other gemstones open up a whole new world of colour, character and design (and make a particularly good choice if a traditional diamond ring has never really appealed to you).⁠ ⁠ We asked the team at @stelios_jewellers to talk us through alternative engagement rings, what to consider when choosing a coloured gemstone, and why it might be worth looking beyond the diamond counter.⁠ ⁠ Read the full story on Polka Dot Wedding via the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ Photography: @amanda.aftonphoto⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A newlywed couple sits closely together, holding hands across a rustic wooden wedding reception table, with a striking orange gemstone engagement ring visible on the bride’s hand. The autumn-inspired wedding tablescape is styled with vibrant orange, pink and red flowers, black plates and cutlery, vintage glassware, amber bottles and candle holders.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWeddings #AustralianWedding #PolkaDotWisdom #WeddingPro #WeddingVendor #WeddingProfessional #WeddingInterview⁠ ⁠

Her bridesmaid holds the cat upright as she placidly sits tight. Lucy wears a two-piece white set, with a flowing skirt and a lace-trimmed long-sleeve top.⁠ ⁠ Image two description: The couple sit at a small white table as they press their cat, Manifred's paw, into an ink pad to press into their marriage certificate. He sits in a white shirt with a green silk ribbon around his neck, staring into the camera.⁠ ⁠ Image three description: Their other cat, Penny Lane, sits with her paw now on the ink pad, ready to stamp the certificate. ⁠ ⁠ Image four description: Lucy sits on the ground in front of an old white wooden door, with both of the cats sitting in front of her as she smiles warmly down at them while wearing a large white shirt.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheGardenIssue #GardenWedding #InternationalCatDay⁠
There can be enormous pressure for a wedding to be There can be enormous pressure for a wedding to be perfect, and then come the “what ifs." What if it rains? What if something goes wrong?⁠ What if, after all this planning, the day doesn’t unfold the way we imagined?⁠ ⁠ Psychologist and founder at Therapy From Home, Beth Fernandes has been a bridesmaid five times and attended numerous weddings, including her own. When she thinks about the weddings she actually remembers, it isn’t the perfect ones. It’s the ones with stories.⁠ ⁠ For Polka Dot Wisdom, Beth shares a practical approach to managing wedding anxiety and those persistent “what ifs," separating what you can prepare for from what you simply cannot control.⁠ ⁠ [Image description: a teal graphic with white text that reads "People don't remember a perfect wedding. They remember the one where Karen fell into the fishpond. – Beth Fernandes, Nobody Remembers A Perfect Wedding".]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWeddings #AustralianWedding #PolkaDotWisdom #WeddingPro #WeddingVendor #WeddingProfessional #WeddingInterview⁠
