Our Friends (aka the people we'd trust at our own wedding)

Planning a wedding can feel a bit overwhelming, there are a lot of decisions to make.

Over the years, we’ve worked with some incredible wedding professionals who genuinely care about their couples, show up consistently, and help make the day feel easy.

These are the people we trust, recommend, and love working alongside.

So if you’re building your dream team, this is a really good place to start.

Celebrants

Amber Gillam

If you want a ceremony that feels like you (not something off a template), Amber is your person. Warm, relaxed and engaging, with just the right amount of humour.
We worked with Amber at Mark + Marky’s wedding and it felt effortless from start to finish.

Melissa Price

Melissa is one of our absolute favourites to work with. Warm, professional and incredibly good at what she does. She creates ceremonies that feel genuine, relaxed and truly personal. She has a great sense of humour + is a little cheeky (without ever being over the top), which means her ceremonies feel engaging and natural, not forced.

DJ + Musician + MC

DJ Earl Francis

DJ Earl Francis is all about reading the room and building a dance floor that feels effortless. He knows exactly when to lean into the classics, when to drop something unexpected, and how to keep the energy flowing all night without it ever feeling forced. Calm, professional, and seriously good at what he does. He’s the kind of DJ you can trust to turn a great party into one your guests won’t stop talking about.

Cassidy Mackie

Cassidy Mackie is the kind of musician who quietly makes a moment feel bigger without ever overpowering it. Her voice is warm, effortless, and perfectly suited to those emotional, in-between parts of the day. As the night rolls on, she seamlessly shifts gears into a seriously talented DJ, keeping the dance floor full and the energy exactly where it should be.

The Luxe Booths
Photobooth + MC + DJ

The Luxe Booths bring that perfect mix of style and fun to your reception. Expect great quality images, easy-to-use setups, and plenty of laughs, plus those candid, slightly chaotic strips that end up being some of the most loved keepsakes from the night. And beyond the booth, they’re also incredible DJs and MCs, keeping the energy high and the night flowing seamlessly from start to finish.

Bassline Studios Band

Bassline Studios Band are the kind of live act that instantly lifts the room. Tight, energetic, and genuinely fun to watch, they know how to read a crowd and keep the dance floor buzzing all night. From easy, feel-good vibes earlier in the evening to full party mode later on, they bring that live music magic that gets everyone involved (even the “I don’t dance” guests).

Florals, Planners + Coordinators + Styling

Florals - Bloom Illusions

Bloom Illusions creates the kind of wedding florals that make people stop mid-conversation and say “wait… those aren’t real?!” Their luxury faux blooms are thoughtfully designed to feel elevated, intentional and completely seamless with your wedding vibe. From keepsake bouquets to full ceremony and reception styling, every detail is beautifully considered, and somehow manages to look incredible both in person and in photos. We absolutely love working alongside Denieka and her team.

Florals - Blooms by Bridie

Blooms by Bridie creates florals that feel thoughtful, natural, and completely in tune with your day. Nothing feels overdone or out of place, just beautifully curated arrangements that elevate the space and photograph like a dream. From soft, romantic bouquets to statement pieces that transform a venue, her work adds that extra layer of magic without ever taking over.

Jules at Event5
Planner + Stylist + Champagne Tower

Event5 are all about thoughtful planning and beautifully executed details. With a calm, organised approach, they bring everything together in a way that feels seamless and completely stress-free. From styling to coordination, they have a great eye for what works and how it all flows, so your day not only looks incredible but feels easy, natural, and genuinely enjoyable from start to finish.

Simply Kate Special Events
Planner + Coordinator + Stylist

Simply Kate Special Events are the kind of planners who bring both creativity and calm to your day. Thoughtful, organised, and genuinely easy to be around, they take your ideas and turn them into something that feels cohesive and completely you. From styling to coordination, everything is handled with care so the day flows effortlessly and you can just be in it, not managing it.

Venues

Bundaleer Rainforest Gardens

If you love the idea of getting married surrounded by greenery, Bundaleer is such a beautiful option. It’s relaxed, a little bit hidden away, and the rainforest setting makes everything feel calm, natural and easy. We’ve photographed weddings here and love how relaxed the whole day feels.

Delaneys Estate

Delaneys Estate has that warm, countryside charm that instantly makes a wedding feel relaxed and inviting. With wide open spaces, beautiful views, and those iconic highland cows (obsessed) adding a little extra personality, it’s a venue that feels both unique and down-to-earth. The team there are genuinely lovely, and with an incredible in-house planner, everything runs so smoothly while still feeling easy and unforced.

Gabbinbar

Gabbinbar Homestead is one of those venues that just gets weddings. Elegant without feeling stuffy, it has the most beautiful gardens, timeless spaces, and a flow to the day that feels completely effortless. Everything is thoughtfully considered, from getting ready right through to the reception, so you can settle in, relax, and actually enjoy it all while the team quietly keeps everything running perfectly behind the scenes.

Hillstone St Lucia

Hillstone St Lucia is one of those venues that gives you the best of both worlds, lush green surroundings with a polished, modern feel. It’s peaceful and scenic while still being super convenient for your guests. The light out there is beautiful (especially in the afternoon), and the space flows so easily from ceremony to reception, making the whole day feel relaxed, seamless, and genuinely enjoyable.

Kooroomba Vineyard + Lavender Farm

Kooroomba Vineyard & Lavender Farm is one of those venues that feels like a destination without being too far from home. Set against rolling vineyards with the most beautiful lavender fields, it’s effortlessly romantic and completely picturesque in every direction. The light out there is something special, especially as the sun starts to dip, making it an absolute dream for photos while still giving your guests a relaxed, memorable experience.

Ocean View Estates

Ocean View Estates is one of those venues that truly lives up to its name, rolling hills, sweeping views, and a calm, tucked-away feel that makes your day feel like a bit of an escape. It’s the perfect mix of relaxed and refined, with beautiful spaces for both your ceremony and reception. And when the weather does its own thing, there are still so many great options (hello barrel room) that keep everything feeling intimate, cosy, and just as special.

Waters Edge Weddings + Events

Waters Edge Weddings & Events is all about those stunning waterfront views paired with a relaxed, modern feel. Sitting right by the water, it gives your day that fresh, open-air vibe while still feeling polished and well put together. The space flows beautifully from ceremony to reception, and as the sun sets over the water, everything softens into the kind of atmosphere that feels easy, romantic, and just a little bit special.

Other Amazing Folks

Cakes
Simply Divine Occasions

Natasha at Simply Divine Occasions create cakes that are just as beautiful as they are delicious. Thoughtfully designed to suit your day, their cakes feel elegant without being over the top, and always photograph so well.

Dance Lessons
Wedding Dance Diva

Wedding Dance Diva is all about turning that first dance from something you’re nervous about into one of your favourite moments of the day. With a fun, relaxed approach, they make learning feel easy (and actually enjoyable), whether you want something simple and heartfelt or a full routine. It’s less about being perfect and more about feeling confident, connected, and completely yourselves on the dance floor.
