Bridget and Frances got married in the garden at Bridget’s parents’ home, and it’s the little details that drew us in. ⁠
⁠
Flowers from the garden, thrifted furniture, family treasures, their beloved malamute and a cake cut with an heirloom sword: what’s not to love?!⁠
⁠
Oh, and their love story started with a box of hostage Krispy Kreme doughnuts.⁠
⁠

What actually makes a wedding unforgettable? It’ What actually makes a wedding unforgettable? It’s not necessarily the guest count, the styling or how much you spend. Sometimes, it’s simply the energy of the couple.⁠
⁠
When you’re present, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying your celebration, your guests feel it too. ⁠
⁠
On Polka Dot Wedding today, Maddy from @huntereventsgroup shares the story of a 27-guest wedding that completely changed her perspective on memorable receptions. She's also sharing practical tips couples can use in their own wedding planning.⁠

The bride wears a modern white wedding dress with a cowboy hat and holds a champagne flute, while the groom wears a dark suit, burgundy tie and matching cowboy hat. They are captured mid-movement, smiling and holding hands, with warm reception lighting, a live musician and an elegant indoor wedding setting in the background.]⁠

There’s the moment the nerves finally disappear. There’s the moment the nerves finally disappear. The “we did it” feeling, and the newlyweds actually start enjoying their wedding.⁠
⁠
Then there are all the moments nobody planned for: a grandparent watching the dance floor, old friends swapping stories, a flower girl asleep across two chairs, someone fixing a tie before the dancing begins.⁠
⁠
On Polka Dot Wisdom, we have the fabulous @zeescott__ sharing what she sees from her front row position, and why the moments couples remember years later aren’t necessarily the ones that made it onto the run sheet.⁠

These aren't the shots about the pretty, or the in These aren't the shots about the pretty, or the inspiration for your Pinterest board. They're the in-between, the moments that memories and stories are made of - our favourite part and, to be honest, is always what we care about most.⁠

"On this occasion, I was capturing a backlit and moody image of Holly & John when John said, 'Let's do some against this wall too.' It was a very different background, but I swung my light around just as John pulled Holly in for an unexpected dip. I probably wouldn't have chosen this background for a shot, but sometimes you have to be ready for anything.⁠
⁠
I love the spontaneity of the moment and their joyful reaction to it."⁠ – Melbourne photographer @leofarrellphoto, on this shot from Holly & John's wedding.⁠

We're pretty sure Darren won the wedding planning negotiations when he secured McDonald's cheeseburgers for the reception! But before the 10 pm cheeseburger delivery, there was an ocean-view ceremony at Terindah Estate, gorgeous pastel florals, classic black tuxedos, a Milla Nova gown and a whole lot of dancing.⁠

2027 engaged couples; we've found the most indulge 2027 engaged couples; we've found the most indulgent location for a truly blissed-out winter honeymoon. 

@lancemorehotels Lindenderry Red Hill makes a cosy home base from which to explore moody coastlines, the natural beauty of the hinterland, art exhibitions, retail therapy, the hottest new cafes and other winter-warmers on the Mornington Peninsula. And - obviously - more world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay; from their own cellar door and beyond.

Let's get snuggly. Jump to our "Red Hill Romance" highlight to get the planning started. Full honeymoon guide coming soon.
