Wedding on the weekend? Work trip on Monday? Dinne Wedding on the weekend? Work trip on Monday? Dinner plans straight after the office? Van Heusen is making a good case for a wardrobe that can do it all.⁠ ⁠ Introducing Tailored for Life, the new Spring/Summer '26 collection featuring travel-ready suiting, breathable shirts and smart casual staples designed for wherever the day takes you. And yes, there's even a suit that packs into its own laptop-sized travel bag.⁠ ⁠ We're taking a closer look at the new collection on Polka Dot Wedding.⁠ ⁠ Photographer: @manolocampion / Attire Retailer: @vanheusenau / Styling: @charlotte__stokes / Venue: Palm Beach & Sydney CBD⁠ ⁠ Image descriptions in the comments.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianFashion #WeddingInspiration #WeddingTailoring
After knowing and loving the work from @poppycultu After knowing and loving the work from @poppyculture_hq for years now, we couldn't think of anyone better to share their thoughts and expertise on patterns in wedding styling. ⁠ ⁠ They talk all things patterns for us: where pattern goes, how to build a colour palette from one source of inspiration, and how to keep a table bold and rich without becoming busy. ⁠ ⁠ Find the full story via the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ [Image description: on a teal text tile the following text reads "Pattern works when it's intentional and deliberate. Throwing more budget at it won't necessarily make it better." – Poppy Culture on How to Start With Pattern At Your Wedding."

Choosing your wedding makeup artist is a big call, Choosing your wedding makeup artist is a big call, so we asked @ashleymoralesmakeup for her advice. She’s been doing wedding makeup for more than 15 years, and she knows what makes a morning feel calm.⁠ ⁠ She talks through all the important stuff: why everyone should book a trial, why your artist should know what makeup you usually wear, and what helps it last all day. She also shares what to look for in the reviews before you book.⁠ ⁠ Full post with all her wonderful tips can be found at the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ Photo captured by @leileiclavey with @eventden_⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A model stands against a white wall, turned to the side, wearing a white satin plunge gown.

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!!).
