When it comes to planning your wedding, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Modern couples are increasingly casting off conventional wedding traditions and wholeheartedly embracing a vast array of innovative and one-of-a-kind choices to celebrate their love.

From backyard BBQs to far flung weddings, there’s a wedding style for every couple. Lets turn any preconceived wedding thoughts on their head and instead create a perfect wedding that truly reflects who you are as a couple.

The Intimate Backyard Affair:

For couples who cherish intimate gatherings and a cosy atmosphere, a backyard wedding is an excellent choice. Picture exchanging vows under the open sky, surrounded by your favourite loved ones. You can opt for rustic decor, festoon lighting, and long farm-style tables. DIY elements and personalised touches can transform your backyard into a lawn to a perfect destination.

How to Make It Yours:

Personalise: From handmade menus to customised wedding favours, infuse your couple personality into every detail.

Casual Dining: Embrace the informality with a BBQ food truck dinner encouraging guests to mingle and chill.

Borrow someone else’s house: If you’re not up for the task of cleaning your house, tidying the lawn and garden, and inviting all your friends over, there are other options – borrowing a parent or friends house or shack, or rent an Airbnb.

Games and Entertainment: Set up lawn games like cornhole or croquet to keep guests entertained.

Destination Extravaganza:

Escape the normal “wedding venues” and tie the knot in a far-off corner of Tasmania. Destination weddings offer a unique blend of celebration and vacation. Whether it’s a beach, a vineyard or a mountain top in Tasmania, these weddings create unforgettable memories against picturesque backdrops.

How to Make It Yours:

Local Flavors: Incorporate local produce, traditions, and music to give your guests a taste of the destination’s best of the best.

Travel-Friendly Invitations: Send out digital invites with travel tips and local recommendations to help guests plan their trip.

Relaxed Schedule: Plan leisurely activities like group tours, welcome dinners, and beach parties to enjoy quality time with your guests.

Lavish Grand Affair:

For couples who dream of a grand celebration, a lavish wedding is the way to go. Think opulent venues, extravagant decor, and a guest list that reads like a who’s who. These weddings are a splendid display of luxury and sophistication.

How to Make It Yours:

Luxurious Venue: Choose a grand homestead, historic mansion or world-class hotel as your venue. Tasmania has an abundance to choose from!

Exquisite Details: Focus on elaborate floral arrangements, crystal chandeliers, and plush furnishings to create a lavish atmosphere.

Gourmet Delights: Offer a multi-course menu and a selection of fine wines and cocktails to tantalise the taste buds of your guests.

Remember, your wedding day is a celebration of your love story. Let your personalities guide your decisions. Your wedding should reflect who you are as a couple and going against the “norm” is so ok! By choosing a style that resonates with both of you, you’ll create a memorable experience not only for yourselves but also for your guests. 

So, pave your own path, and make your wedding day a true reflection of who you really are!
