Welcome 2015! Nice to have you here. I’m not sure about you guys but the old month of January just clear whizzed me by. One minute I was celebrating the first day and the next I am in February. It happens to me every year but I am still befuddled about why that is??? I won’t go into all of my new year’s resolutions because, frankly, I don’t want to bore you TO DEATH (Hello!!! Lose weight, get fit, eat better, drink more water!!!!), but I will say this – I aim to blog more. Like a whole lot more. I started this blog a while ago and talked about so many other things besides weddings which I really liked doing, and I hope you really liked reading. So I thought I might do that again. We can get together a couple of times a week, with a cup of coffee in hand, and talk about life, love, nail polish colours, how embarrassing Johnny Depp has become, fashion, hairstyles, you name it! I want you to tell me about what new trend you are keen on trying, what new recipe you love, and how that wedding planning is going. Let’s huddle up ladies, kick our shoes off, and get chatting! This of course does not really segue into today’s wedding except there is a whole lotta love, and a whole lotta style. Kirsty and Adam were married late last year at the fabulous Yandina Station. If anyone is in the beginning stages of planning their wedding and is still looking for a wonderful, unique country/beach style wedding you can go no further than Yandina Station. Give Sally and Neil a call – they are the most wonderful people and will totally help you turn your wedding dreams into a reality! Kirsty wore a stunning raw silk dress by Ian Stuart, and her shoes were from Irregular Choice. The amazing flowers were from Willow Bud. Her stunning bridesmaids dresses were from Monsoon. Hair was by Mia at Evalyn Parsons and makeup by Gorgeous Makeup and Beauty. All of the amazing elements and styling throughout the day was by Kirsty herself, with some help from her mum of course! Such a beautiful, fun-filled wedding day surrounded by close family and friends. they danced the night away to Greg Doney under the twinkling fairly lights provided by Splash Events. Congratulations Kirsty and Adam and thank you for choosing us to come along for your big adventure!

Why are there so many songs that talk about love and weather? Songs like Stormy Weather, Here Comes the Sun, the ever-classic November Rain and a personal favourite, It’s Raining Men, entwine age old themes of love and weather. I’m sure this list could go on and on. When I think about it, I guess songwriters use the weather as a metaphor for life – if your love can withstand all those forces of nature, the sun, the rain, the hail and wind – it is a true love, a lasting and strong love. For Stephen and Naomi, who experienced sun, rain, hail and wind on their wedding day, it can only mean that their love is SUPER strong. I had such a hard time choosing the photographs for this post because their love and that weather made an amazing combination. Held at the spectacular Spicers Peak Lodge, Stephen and Naomi gathered their nearest and dearest to witness their marriage. It was a truly special day – and to only add to the magic, there were a couple of cow photo bombers. His name was Hamish.

Stephen’s dapper suit was by Herringbone and his shirt and bowtie was by those gents at The Cloakroom.

Naomi’s beautiful outfit was a simple silk shirt and flowing skirt from the master Johanna Johnson. Give me a dress with pockets and I’m a happy girl! Too cool.

All the flowers (and there were flowers, flowers everywhere) were done by the absolutely fabulous Green and Bloom. Oh my goodness – simply stunning!

The amazing celebrant, Nicole Evans, managed to cope with the changing weather spectacularly. As the heavens opened up, and the guests ran for cover, Spicers’ staff were handing out umbrellas and guiding guests inside. Professional, exceptional service.

See what I mean about the flowers? Ah-Maze-Ing! Tables were hired from Hodgepodge Hire and the Chairs were from AVIdeas. So beautiful!

They had a caricature artist at the reception – what a brilliant idea!
