You may ask how a stylist can identify your tastes better than you, but as Trudy Croad from Lovebird Weddings says, the process of identifying a couple’s style is very in-depth. ‘Getting to know our clients is a really important element of our job. Some clients come to us knowing exactly what they want, so then our job is about how to pull this look together with the furniture and decor that we own. Others come to us with a blank canvas and are really counting on us to come up with a look that reflects them. Generally though, concepts develop over time, which is why we value working with our clients in a consultative basis right up until their wedding day…over time tastes will change and new trends will develop, and our clients count on us to have a dynamic styling process so that come the day of the wedding, we really have evolved the original concept to be better and more relevant to here and now.’
Whereas a bride or groom may get stuck on a particular ‘colour theme’ or detail (floral arch, fairy lights) a wedding stylist will look at an event in an overall cohesive way, ensuring the styling tells a story about you as a couple, and the event has a particular atmosphere about it.
Sperry Tents are the original and authentic sailcloth tent. Crafted by master New England-based sailmakers from genuine sailcloth – their signature peaks, ivory sails, tapered timber poles and exquisite detailing convey elegance and romance.
Constructed with state-of-the-art sealing and reinforcement of all seams, our Sperry Tents are tried and tested structures that are extremely strong, durable and watertight.
These beautiful, handmade tents are available in a variety of sizes. So, whether you are holding an intimate soiree, fairy-tale wedding or large-scale corporate event, our Sperry Tents have you covered!
The Modern Coastal Fresh Wedding Trend is sweeping in like a summer storm across the ocean in the valley after a run of festival backyard, shed rustic.
Modern Coastal Fresh is so perfect for properties that look out to the ocean on the magnificent Sunshine Coast, it can be similar to a festival but less boho, rustic and more of an elegant flow of wedding beauty from space to space all in total luxury, no porta loos and guest discomfort in the elements… adding in all the comfort but with a big shot of glam.
We are actually giving 3 big cheers for this concept as guest comfort goes right up again without the need for formal seating. It is the ultimate, not too formal but a luxury plus style concept, innovation overload to suit our region perfectly and possibly how it should be.
Are we owning our own style at last?
The Sunshine Coast Style …elegant ,sophisticated Coastal with Luxe Chill. It also brings in a time of great change over the last few weeks where couples expect great service again, service and quality is back on track and real wedding venues, quality crafted food for our foodie generations and total comfort with all amenities and great plan B’s. It is the most asked for trend this month.
Brooke wanted to be ahead of her time when she married Callum, it was to be timeless and classic but with a modern twist and we believe she captured it perfectly, but more perfect… they captured it to suit themselves.
It was a real privilege to work with this couple and their beautiful families in a day of friendship ,love and respect.
As the saying goes …What is the best gift you can give a couple… Love , Respect and a RSVP
Note the use of masses of fresh potted plants in fresh white tubs framing the view, white and wire, modern tables, brass and lots of fresh greenery for zing and texture. Softened with a classic white floral base, olive leaf, gum,David Austin roses, scented stocks, white tulips and Queen Anne’s Lace. Rooms to flow through not just one reception room, a stage to be set and move through each scene from ceremony looking out to the ocean, to garden party, then outdoor pavilion ,to indoor lounging, supper bar of designer sweets and Maleny cheese bar and then of course dance time but the ability to flow back outdoors again into the night and romantic spaces.
Add to that mix Queensland’s best Celebrant Jarrad Bayliss for one super mix of care, fun, timing and polish in the outdoor ceremony… no one quite has his dash and style as yet.This is also a 2018 trend of the professional Celebrant that is also being sort after and we have a great list a celebrants on our website.
The Love Note duo for some cool afternoon outdoors vibes and then taking it up a notch for the reception and dance time on the D Floor, they have also swept onto the scene fitting this breif perfectly.
A wedding cake that is not just a wedding cake by one of Queensland’s most reputable cake makers Lee Berryman from Cake Designs Wedding Cakes.
Blush on the hillside, shining golden through the trees,
Warmed light touching the land and everything it see’s,
A special bush oasis, gazing to the pink and blue bands above the east ocean beyond,
Embracing everything our hearts are set upon…
The blue black of night, the mystery in the layers of what is to come…of what is to be,
The bonding and the burnishing of the glow that is meant to be,
Serenaded by the waters edge, feasting in the garden to the romance of the night…
Follow me, follow me into to the rays of sunsets last light, for the journey of your life.
By our talented Inhouse Florist Mondo Floral Designs & Our Inhouse Bespoke Stylist Lovebird Weddings
