A little rain wasn’t about to ruin this sunken g A little rain wasn’t about to ruin this sunken garden ceremony. With umbrellas overhead, live strings playing from the verandah, and Jordaan making sure the ceremony she’d dreamed of still happened, Bec walked down the wet brick steps and into one of the most romantic moments of the day!⁠ ⁠ Burgundy blooms with hints of green, autumn gardens in red tones, and putting your partner first made this celebration at The Gardens at Bullimah pretty unforgettable.⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @theartofusweddings / Bridal Salon: @archelabridal / Bride’s Shoes: @gucci / Bridesmaid Dresses: @becandbridge / Ceremony Musicians: @great.southern.ensemble / Hair & Makeup Artist: @Sorellas_signature / Flowers: @lushfloraldesign / Venue: @The_gardens_at_bullimah / Content Creator: @Momentswithmos / DJ: @Dj_siboney / Accommodation: @parrysestate / Bride’s Jewellery: @paspaleypearls / Linens: @albanyeventhire / Wedding Cake: @summers.sweet_treats⁠ ⁠ [Video description: quick shots from Jordaan & Bec’s wedding flash across the screen as “Movin’ To The Sun” by HUGEL plays in the background.] ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheGardenIssue #GardenWedding #RainWedding⁠
In honour of The Garden Issue, we're looking back In honour of The Garden Issue, we're looking back at Tara and Mitch's fairy garden party wedding at The Fitzroy Inn. Think golden yellow bridesmaid dresses, a ceremony backdrop dripping in pink hollyhocks and dahlias, and an embroidered floral veil that stole the whole day.⁠ ⁠ Every bouquet, every arrangement, every little detail looked like it had been plucked straight from an actual garden. ⁠ ⁠ See the rest of this beautiful day at the link in our bio!⁠ ⁠ ⁠Photographer: @charlottefraserphotography / Venue: @fitzroy_inn / Bride's Dress: @bridesofbeecroft / Bride's Veil/Hair Accessories: @lavoilerose / Catering: @thechefandicamden / Bridesmaid Dresses: @billy_j_boutique / Ceremony Officiant: @beccelebrant / Engagement Ring: @@megmaskellfinejewllery / Flowers: caloona / Groom's Attire: @institchu / Groom's Shoes: @rmwilliams / Guestbook: @papier / Hair & Makeup Artist: @emilyfaussetbridal / Cinematographer: @abovebelow.visuals / Wedding Ring: @paradejewellers⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheGardenIssue #GardenWedding #GardenWeddingInspiration⁠ ⁠ ⁠ [Image description in comments.]⁠
For the dads who fix the button, straighten the ti For the dads who fix the button, straighten the tie, calm the nerves, deliver the speech, shed a tear, and somehow keep everyone laughing when things get a little much.⁠ ⁠ For the stepdads, grandfathers, foster dads, single dads, LGBTQIA+ parents and chosen father figures who have shown up, loved hard and made a difference.⁠ ⁠ And for anyone missing their dad today, hoping to become one, grieving a relationship, or finding Father’s Day difficult in ways that aren’t always easy to put into words.⁠ ⁠ There’s room for all of it here.⁠ Happy Father’s Day, Dotties!⁠ ⁠ Photographers in order of appearance: @wildandwoozy / @danielchaferphotography / @acaciaandgrace_photography⁠ ⁠ Image descriptions can be found in the comments.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWeddings #FathersDay
What happens when a designer who loves and embrace What happens when a designer who loves and embraces fashion for plus-size bodies gets to make her own wedding gown?⁠ ⁠ Harvest, the creativity behind @hopeandharvest, made her own wedding gown. Three pieces, 85 metres of raw silk, entirely by hand. She designed and made her husband's suit too!⁠ ⁠ And lucky for us (and you), she shared it all. The process, the memories, the in-betweens, right down to the quiet morning moment when the finished result took her breath away. How the idea came to her, how it all unfolded, and why she thinks "should" is one of the worst words in wedding planning.⁠ ⁠ Link in bio to see it all!⁠ ⁠ [Image description: Teal blue background. Bold navy serif text reads: "If someone tells you it's just a dress for one day, they haven't found or created the dress yet." Below in smaller text: "Harvest Powell" and italicised "Hope & Harvest." A thin navy divider line sits above the Polka Dot Wedding logo at the bottom.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #HopeAndHarvest #PlusSizeBride #PlusSizeFashion #InclusiveBridal #AustralianWeddingDesigner
What if your honeymoon staycation felt a little… What if your honeymoon staycation felt a little… European? You don’t always need a passport to get that European honeymoon feeling. ⁠ ⁠ @lisaperkovic checked into @hydeperthcity and discovered a city hotel serving up serious holiday energy. Think Amalfi inspired poolside afternoons, Greek feasts at FARRA, Ibiza style nights and even a little Parisian flair tucked into the suites. It’s the kind of place that makes you forget you’re in the heart of Perth CBD.⁠ ⁠ Honestly, after months (or years) of wedding planning, sometimes a little luxury, delicious food and uninterrupted time together is exactly what you need. ⁠ ⁠ Read Lisa’s full review of Hyde Perth via the link in bio. ✨⁠ ⁠ Photography: @cubbagephoto⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A stylish outdoor pool at Hyde Perth surrounded by white umbrellas, red and white sun loungers, tropical plants and modern hotel buildings, creating a relaxed European inspired resort atmosphere in the heart of Perth.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #PolkaDotHoneymoons #FeelGoodWeddings #Honeymoon #HoneymoonIdeas #Honeymoons #Honeymooning #HoneymoonVibes #HoneymoonDiaries #LuxuryTravel #LuxuryHoneymoon #Travel #Travelling #TravelIdeas
