My Favorite Suppliers - Part 2!

Reception Centers - Dunsborugh and Margaret River :)

Dunsborough -

My favorite 2 in Dunsborough are Wyndham Resort and Spa, and the ever fantabulous Wise Winery!

Wyndham is a fabulous self contained resort. You have accommodation, a chapel, awesome gardens, the beach AND an awesome ballroom! And to top it all off they have a spectacular Day Spa too! Seriously could It get any better ?????



Wise Winery has one of the VERY best views in the southwest. The wine is fabulous (of course) the food is amazing, and the venue - WOW. My favorite bit is the open courtyard outside where you have pre dinner drinks.




Now...Margaret River...Cant possibly go past the Wineries - and I couldnt pick only 2 as there are so many fabulous ones, so i narrowed it down to my top 4 ;) All have spectacular surroundings, awesome food, excellent setups and of course the wine aint too bad either!!

Cape Clairault



Watershed Wines



Vasse Felix

My Favorite Suppliers :) Part One

Ive been 'around the Block' for a while and when you have been to as many weddings as I have you see a few trends, hear a few readings more than once, shed a few too many tears at how GORGEOUS everyone looks, try and come up with something super cool to do with the rings this week....and every week I come across some AWESOME wedding suppliers that really need a few kudos sent their way for being so fabulous.


THIS WEEK..... Reception Centers!! The place where all the fun happens :)


Bunbury
My 2 favorites in Bunbury are The Sanctuary Golf Resort and Vat 2

Sanctuary has accomodation for everyone, the option of two areas, inside or outside in the marquee, an AWESOME buffett and Carly and Tim will do anything to make your day special.





Vat 2 has food to DIE for and an awesome view out on Koombana Bay




Busselton
the top two favorites down here are by far and away The Goose and Abbey Beach Resort

Donna and the crew at Abbey Beach Resort are just beyond fantastic. They go above and beyond at every single wedding, and the Ballroom always looks amazing (mostly up to the awesome decorators...more on them later)



The Goose is perfectly situated in the Busselton Foreshore, ALWAYS has amazing sunsets over the jetty, ALWAYS has amazing food and seriously - you cant go past that view.



Next - Dunsborough and Margaret River!

Erin and Craig - Engagement Session

45 mins extra on the Freeway in traffic made for a late start - but also an AWESOME sunset. See everything happens for a reason!

The GORGEOUS Erin and SPUNKY Craig met me down here for their Pre Wedding session last Friday evening, all in preparation for their wedding next January.





I reckon Craig looks a little like that dude from Twilight. (not that i watch that stuff.....)







The sky was ammmmmmmmmmmmmmmazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!











Thanks so much guys - so looking forward to January, its going to be an awesome day!!

Little Baby Ava

She arrived!!!! And is unbelievably gorgeous. Not really difficult seeing her genes were pretty special.







only 12 days old...and already taking in the world around her like a pro.





I love little ones in the arms of their Big Daddies. It really brings the fragility and tininess into the front row.







and the world makes a resounding AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww









I feel so privileged to be able to share in the happiest times of people's lives. Its quite humbling really!

Peta, Ewan and Bump make 3!

I headed down to the gorgeous Bunker Bay last week to see Peta and Ewan, who are expecting their first baby in a few weeks. What a great way to spend a few days break, but to record such a special time of your life!!





I just LOVE Tummies!!!



Peta and Ewan have already named their soon-to-be baby, which i thought was totally awesome. It really connects you to the new person before they are even here!







How amazing does Peta look??







We heading around the corner to Shelly Beach to showcase some of what Dunsborough is famous for.











Thank you so much for sharing this special time with me guys - it was amazing to witness your joy and love :)
