For Nikita and Hannah, choosing inclusive vendors was one of their biggest priorities, and we're so glad they shared just how much that meant to their experience! ⁠ ⁠ Their Gold Coast Farm House celebration was a colourful garden party filled with disco balls, DIY details, a very fabulous pink couch and plenty of dancing. ⁠ ⁠ Head over to Polka Dot Featured to hear more from the happy couple!⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @_untamedcreative_ / Beverages: @thevintagebarco / Bride's Dress: @needleandthreadlondon / Bride's Shoes: @blundstoneau / Suit: @institchu / Bridesmaid Dresses: @elliatt / Catering: @theitalianjobcatering / Ceremony Officiant: @thewildhitcher / Venue: @goldcoastfarmhouse / Wedding Cake: @lovesickbakery⁠ ⁠ Image descriptions in the comments.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #ThePatternIssue #PatternWedding #PatternWeddingInspo
“Our advice would be to take the day slow, take “Our advice would be to take the day slow, take it all in, take in every moment and conversation as they go by way too quick!” – @geegra⁠ ⁠ There's a lovely little full-circle moment about Riley and Georgia's story! After meeting through mutual friends in Cronulla, reconnecting in Byron Bay and eventually building a life together, they chose the Far South Coast, a place close to both their hearts, to bring everyone together for their wedding.⁠ ⁠ Their celebration at Mimosa Wines was full of family, friends, handmade details and a few very memorable moments (including a rather enthusiastic border collie!!).

Vineyard views, with a lake just beyond the celebr Vineyard views, with a lake just beyond the celebrations, and food and wine you'll still be talking about afterwards? There's a lot to love about a celebration at @crittendenwines.⁠ ⁠ Set at the base of Red Hill, this family-owned Mornington Peninsula winery is the most beautiful backdrop for gathering your favourite people, sharing a long meal and raising a glass to what's ahead. Take a look at Sam & Derek's charming wedding captured by @dustandsaltphotography here!⁠ ⁠ Learn more about @crittendenwines on the Polka Dot Directory, link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ [Image one description: This couple stands at their lakeside ceremony, with guests seated on dark wooden chairs in the gravel. Greenery in large plant boxes frames the ceremony, as the sky and trees are reflected in the glass lake in the background.⁠ ⁠ Image two description: The couple stand on a small bit of land between the water with their dog, sharing a kiss that is reflected once again in the beautiful glassy lake.]⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWeddings #WeddingVendors #WeddingDirectory #WeddingVenue
