Villa Botanica, Whitsundays Destination Wedding - Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australian Photographers - Kirsten & Luke

Kirsten and Luke married each other at one of Australia’s best and most beautiful wedding venues, Villa Botanica in Queensland’s Airlie Beach. With the Whitsundays as the backdrop for your wedding, how can you go wrong? Right!

The bride prepared herself to walk down the aisle in Airlie Beach town, as did the groom. Kirsten and Luke were at different locations though to keep in line with the tradition of the bride and groom not seeing each other on the day of the wedding before the ceremony. This was one tradition they adhered to. The wedding bouquet however, was radicalised. WOW. WOW WOW. Wait until you see the bride’s wedding bouquet. AHHHHmazing.

Luke got himself ready with his brother AND his twin brother. Oh and there was another set of twins in his groom party. Not only were there two sets of twins in the but one twin in each set was called Aaron! Mind. Blown.

Kirsten completed her final wedding preparations at Villa Botanica. Then the moment arrived to walk down the isle and what a stunning entrance this awesome bride made. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful, marked by some hilarious guest appearances by the bride and groom’s son who received his very own wedding ring. So cute!

Post wedding ceremony we took some group shots, followed by some family photos and then we adventured to various areas around Villa Botanica for some bridal party photos. Then we cruised on down to the private beach beside Villa Botanica for some bride and groom couple shots. Our trusty drone of course made an appearance for some epic aerial wedding photos from above.

The newly weds then headed off to prepare for their reception on the epic deck at Villa Botanica (check out the drone shots of the reception setup). The night kicked on with out-of-this-world amazing gourmet entrees and main meals, a cake cutting, first dance and some very hilarious and a few teary speeches.

What an spectacular day at an extraordinary day for two stunning people getting hitched.

We wish you all the happiness in the world Kirsten and Luke!

Enjoy…

BEST OF WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY 2017 - SUNSHINE COAST PHOTOGRAPHERS - AUSTRALIA & WORLDWIDE

What an amazing year of weddings it has been for us here on The Sunshine Coast and worldwide! We've photographed weddings of brides and grooms not just from The Sunshine Coast but also New Zealand, Asia, The UK, Europe, North America and Australia wide.
We had the privilege to photograph a wedding at the Fiji Outrigger this year as well as some of our favourite venues including Yandina Station, The Rocks Yandina, Casuarina Gardens in Noosa, Noosa Riverdeck, Yabbaloumba Retreat in Kenilworth, Maroochy Twin Waters Resort, Evans Farm Maleny, Caloundra Sebel, AnnaBella Chapel in Ilkley, Ocean View Estates just outside of Brisbane, Spicers Peak Lodge in the Gold Coast Hinterland, numerous weddings at Kingfisher Bay Resort on Fraser Island and many more gorgeous venues.
We also won 2 Fearless Awards in 2017 which we are over the moon about!
Being wedding photographers means the world to us and we believe it to be an absolute honour when chosen to document a couple's wedding in our own unique way.
Our trusty drone has played a very important part in how we capture weddings and will only continue to grow as being an integral part of our photography in 2018. The great thing about our drone service is that it's free with every wedding package we offer - YAY!
We want to say a massive thank you to all of the wonderful couples we have created with this year - it's been a complete honour to be your wedding photographers.
We're already looking forward to photographing weddings on the Sunshine Coast, throughout Queensland, The Whitsundays, Melbourne, Ireland and beyond in 2018.
We wish you all the love and happiness possible for next year and many years to come!

Please enjoy our 2017 Best of Gallery and we look forward to seeing you in 2018!

Spicers Peak Lodge, Gold Coast Hinterland, Australian Wedding - Kaitlyn & Andrew

Kaitlyn and Andy chose the most stunning, picturesque, mountainous wedding venue in Queensland - Spicers Peak Lodge in the Gold Coast Hinterland. This bride and groom's wedding date was June 21 (winter solstice) and it was absolutely freezing up at Australia's highest non-alpine lodge but oh so breathtaking.
Andy and his groomsmen got ready in the gorgeous spa suite while Kaitlyn and her bridesmaids preened and prepared themselves in a cottage with the most epic mountain views. Both absolutely stellar options!
There were tears flying here, there and everywhere while the stunning bride was walking down the isle and throughout the ceremony. The most extraordinary thing happened though during their vows. Kaitlyn and Andy both wrote their vows separately but said the exact same quote at the end of their speeches - "When I die, then I die loving you." WOW! They were shocked. Their guests were shocked. We were shocked when we learnt they had not written their vows together!
After the ceremony we got to explore the A-MAZING Spicers Peak Lodge property with the bride and groom. It's a couple's wedding location dream and a photographer's dream. Sunset was absolutely divine to boot. These two were blessed with an absolutely perfect day for their wedding.
Kaitlyn, Andy and their close friends and family enjoyed a 5-course degustation meal during the reception along with some hearty laughs and hilarious anecdotes during the speeches. One of the loveliest and most gut-wrenching parts of the day was when Kaitlyn and her Dad danced together. The tears could not be held back any more. Such a sweet ending to a beautiful wedding day in the Gold Coast Hinterland.
We wish you so much love and happiness Kaitlyn and Andy!

Enjoy...
