THE FUN FACTOR


In Australia, we might work hard (and play hard) but when push comes to shove, we’re a pretty easygoing bunch. That’s why one of the major wedding trends – the fun factor – suits us so darn well. It’s all about loosening up and bypassing the more formal traditions for a casual but stylish affair.

GET THE LOOK: ‘THE GREAT GATSBY’


There are so many things to think about when planning a wedding, that even if bridal beauty has been locked down months before the big day, maids’ makeup can be something of an afterthought. Oops!But there’s no reason for it to be shoved to the back of your mind because I promise finding inspiration for your bridemaids’ looks can be just as fun (if not more) than deciding on your own look. Why?

INSPIRATION: FINE PRINT


I don’t know about you, but I love playing around with trends! While I respect classic outfits like the LBD, for me the fun is in wearing what’s hot right now. That said, there are times when trends should be approached with care. Even I know there’s a major difference between testing out harem pants on a Saturday night and going for the “in” thing on your wedding day. After all, those pics are going to be around a long time!
