Life’s a happy song… and this wedding proved i Life’s a happy song… and this wedding proved it! Instead of a traditional first dance, Lou and Andy (also known as @djandrewmcclelland) surprised their guests with a fully choreographed routine to "Life’s a Happy Song" from The Muppets – and halfway through, a dozen of their friends jumped in flash-mob style!⁠ ⁠ “I loved choreographing what was essentially a flash mob as our first dance and having a bunch of mates over to learn it,” Louisa shared. And honestly? We can’t think of a more joyful way to kick off married life.⁠ ⁠ Would you trade a slow dance for a surprise group routine? Let us know below!! Head to the link in our bio to find more of these incredible details from this quirky wedding.⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @kyraboyerweddings⁠ ⁠ [Image one description: Andy and Lou are standing in the middle of a dance circle, holding hands and smiling widely at one another. Andy is wearing a vintage suit to match Lou's vintage-inspired white gown. ⁠ ⁠ Image two description: Now the couple and their guests have their arms in the air as they continue their flash mob while the rest of their guests look on.]⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWeddings #AustralianWedding #WeddingInspiration #WeddingInspo #WeddingDetails #UniqueDetails #WeddingDetail #WeddingFlashMob #FlashMob
What if your wedding was never photographed?⁠ ⁠ Now, before you panic – don’t worry, we’re not actually suggesting this! Wedding photos are precious, and we’d never argue otherwise.⁠ ⁠ But just for a moment, imagine your wedding existed only in the memories of those who were there. No Instagram posts, no likes, no old-school friends or workmates stumbling across it online. Just a day that lived purely in the hearts of those who shared it with you.⁠ ⁠ Would it change how you're planning? Would it shift your priorities?⁠ ⁠ The truth is, weddings come with a lot of outside noise – trends, expectations, ideas about what’s "right" or "wrong." Even after the big day, there is online sharing. But what if none of that mattered? What if you chose everything based only on what you love? What feels right for you and your partner?⁠ ⁠ Do a first look or don’t. Wear white or don’t. Walk down the aisle or don’t. There are no rules.⁠ ⁠ So maybe the real question is: If no one else were watching, which parts of your wedding would still feel meaningful? And which ones wouldn’t?⁠ ⁠ Of course, we love wedding photography (and we’ll always recommend it!), but there’s something to be said for planning your day with the same kind of intention and intimacy as if it were just for you. Because, at the end of it all, that’s exactly what it is – a celebration of your love, first and foremost.⁠ ⁠ No audience required.⁠ ⁠ [Image description: a teal text tile that reads "What if your wedding was never photographed?]⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWeddings #AustralianWedding #WeddingStory #WeddingStories #WeddingMemories #WeddingInspiration #WeddingInspo #RealWedding
