“Divide and conquer contacting vendors, it’s a “Divide and conquer contacting vendors, it’s an overwhelming task, but manageable if halved.” – @savannahedwards_ & @jedwards10⁠ ⁠ Sometimes the right person is closer than you think. For Savannah and Jay, it took a Banff ski season to bring everything into focus. And years later, a spring-toned wedding that felt just as effortless. ⁠ ⁠ See their day on Polka Dot Featured now.⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @tropical.romance / Ceremony Musicians: @danielle_guest_music / Bride's Dress: @kwhbridal / Ceremony Officiant: @leisaottleycelebrant / DJ: @coastalbeatsbyron / Flowers & Decor: @arcticfox_events / Groom & Groomsmen Attire: @mjbale / Hairstylist: @thefuture_mrs / Makeup Artist: @Helenachapmanmua / Wedding Cake: @hellolittlecrumb / Wedding Ring: @amour_jewellery / Ceremony Venue: @Osteriaweddings⁠ ⁠ [Image one description: The groom is dipping his bride at the end of the aisle, with guests cheering and clapping in the background.

When it comes to wedding venues in Australia, the When it comes to wedding venues in Australia, the price range is vast. And knowing what you're actually paying for changes how you see the number.⁠ ⁠ In our sixth (!) wedding budget guide, we're breaking down the numbers. Because we all know hiring a venue isn't just the room. It's the coordinator behind the scenes, the insurance, the bump-in and bump-out, the years of experience that mean your day runs without a hitch.⁠ ⁠ We put the call out to a huge number of wedding venues all across the country, from regional properties to city spaces, and asked them for real numbers on what a venue actually costs. What affects the price, what's usually included, and where there's room to move if your budget is tight.⁠ ⁠ Link in bio.⁠ ⁠ Big thanks to Pip Metcalfe from @tindarra_resort_weddingsevents, the team at @nudoevents, Aparna Jones from @wattleparkchalet, Wesley Jones and Meg Free from @pohevents Jana Teivonen from @themarion.au, Nadene Clarke from @gledswood, and Karen Bentley from @pottersreceptions⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #WeddingVenue #AustralianWeddingVenue #WeddingBudget #AustralianWedding
To the mums steaming dresses on wedding mornings, To the mums steaming dresses on wedding mornings, fastening necklaces with shaky hands, wiping away happy tears and holding it all together behind the scenes: this one’s for you.⁠ ⁠ And to every version of motherhood beyond tradition or expectation: the single mums, foster mums, LGBTQIA+ parents, stepmums, grandmothers and chosen mother figures who love so deeply.⁠ ⁠ We’re also thinking of those missing their mums, longing to become one, parenting through heartbreak, or simply finding today hard.⁠ ⁠ Motherhood can hold a lot: joy, grief, hope, and love all at once. Today, we honour every part of it.⁠ ⁠ In order of appearance:⁠ @kimmystevensphotography / @acaciaandgrace_photography / @hayley.morgan.weddings / @hereafter_weddings⁠ ⁠ [Image one description: Leaning into each other, this bride and her mother are sharing a sweet moment.

What does ethical floristry actually mean when it What does ethical floristry actually mean when it comes to weddings?⁠ ⁠ For our Mindful Issue, we spoke with Ali from @handpickedethicalfloristry about creating wedding flowers with intention. From sourcing seasonal blooms locally and supporting Victorian growers, to avoiding imported flowers, floral foam and unnecessary waste.⁠ ⁠ It’s a thoughtful reminder that beautiful wedding florals can also be mindful, meaningful and deeply connected to nature.⁠ ⁠ Read the full article now via the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ Photography: @pennyryanphotography⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A colourful sustainable wedding ceremony installation featuring native Australian flowers including proteas, pincushions and textured seasonal blooms arranged on a timber arbour overlooking a vineyard and countryside landscape in regional Victoria.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheMindfulIssue #MindfulWeddings #MindfullyWed #IntentionalWedding #SlowWedding⁠

Fiji weddings have come a long way from the standa Fiji weddings have come a long way from the standard resort package.⁠ ⁠ Think beachfront ceremonies, stylish reception spaces, long lunches with your favourite people, sunset cocktails and celebrations that still feel elevated, without the long-haul travel many destination weddings require.⁠ ⁠ On Polka Dot Honeymoons, Sarah from the Polka Dot Wedding team explores what a modern wedding in Fiji can actually look like at @crowneplaza Fiji Nadi Bay Resort & Spa.⁠ ⁠ If a destination wedding has been on your mind lately, this one’s worth the read. ⁠More via the link in our bio!⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A beautifully styled wedding ceremony setting overlooking the ocean at sunset inside Crowne Plaza Fiji Nadi Bay Resort & Spa. The open air space features curved Mediterranean-inspired archways, woven pendant lighting and warm natural textures, creating a relaxed yet elevated tropical atmosphere. White ceremony chairs are arranged facing modern gold ceremony arches adorned with cascading pink and white floral arrangements, while palm trees and calm ocean views frame the backdrop in the distance.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #PolkaDotHoneymoons #FeelGoodWeddings #Honeymoon #HoneymoonIdeas #Honeymoons #Honeymooning #HoneymoonVibes #HoneymoonDiaries #LuxuryTravel #LuxuryHoneymoon #Travel #Travelling #TravelIdeas
