Catering was provided by the lovely folks over at Alfresco Catering, all hire, styling and florals were by us and beautifully photographed by Carol over at Farrago Creative.

Let us know if we can help you with your next milestone birthday, garden wedding or anniversary celebration!

We chose to do what would be our ultimate dining table setting, with hand crafted, lit camelia Christmas trees and the most beautiful white and gold deer heads to bring a modern but traditional feel.  A special mention to the lovely Tash from Gold Wedding Hire to loan us her stunning gold cutlery, you’ll see it pairs with our gold rimmed dinner plates and gold beaded glass charger plates perfectly.

A huge thank you to Jack from Don’t Say Cheese Photography for the beautiful photos. Also, a big thank you to Mirra for having us and last but not least, a massive congratulations to the winners - Brandition who along side Mirra’s Chef, created an amazing  food serving station that could be used for any festive event. We hope you enjoy what we created….

Thankfully we could do 90% of the set up the day before in the Brisbane room at Brisbane City Hall.   I was honoured to be bridesmaid on the big day so we enlisted the expert hands from my dear friends Kelly from Bella Bloom Floral Design to complete the tall monstera leaf arrangements and Bec from Style My Celebration to complete the food styling for us, both at the ceremony charcuterie board/drink station and the lolly buffet at the reception. We can’t thank them enough for their wonderful assistance on the big day. Enjoy!

When the very talented Kylie from Just for Love Photography and Film asked if I would like to style an industrial glam inspired bridal shoot for her Be Inspired Photography Workshop it instantly conjured up visions of raw wood, metal, exposed brick juxtaposed with sparkling warm metallics and striking  florals.  Photographed in the newly renovated Trans Hotel, it was the perfect venue to showcase our Gold LOVE Letter Marquee Lights. We loved incorporating these to create a ceremony backdrop using multi level crates, warm candle light, plants and flowers.  We were thrilled with the end result and we hope it inspires both photographers and brides alike.

Nothing says classic beauty like the sophisticated, elegant style of the late Princess Grace Kelly. Inspired by  her famous lace wedding gown we hinted the lace motive by incorporating our White Lace Tiffany Chair Slips and Black Lace Standing Votives.  Keeping the decor colour palette neutral using white, ivory, black and silver, a touch of pink was brought in by the stunning florals by Julia, one of the Sunshine Coast’s top gun florists, from Ginger Lilly and Rose. We’ve always been a big fan of her work and it was such an honour to collaborate with her.

All of the beauty was captured by another enormously talented Sunshine Coast vendor, Andrea from Sproxton Photography. Set on the luxurious library deck at Spicers Clovelly Estate, Maleny, surrounded by beautiful Jacaranda trees, this shoot is definitely one of our favourites, enjoy!

“Amanda from Adorn Event Hire is a superstar!!! Her expertise in guiding us for our reception styling and ultimately creating what was the most beautiful setting we have ever seen will never be forgotten! We were both speechless when we saw the reception room set up for the first time – the long table was so stunning and the olive trees and fairy lights added to the intimacy. We loved the LOVE lights on the dance floor too and this created the perfect backdrop to the whole room. Amanda was so easy and fun to work with through the process – nothing was ever a concern, nothing was too difficult, and the flowers on the table showcased more of her amazing hidden talents! Thank you Amanda for your incredible generosity in contributing to the prize, but also for all those extra bits and pieces you included for us along the way!!! We are humbled and forever grateful that you made our reception truly magical.”
