When is Start Wedding Dress Shopping

Dress shopping should be joyful, not rushed. By giving yourself the right amount of time, you’ll enjoy the process, stay aligned with your wedding vision, and walk down the aisle with complete confidence.

So remember: shop early enough to enjoy the experience, but not so early that your vision shifts and leaves you second-guessing. Balance is everything.

the Aftermarth noone talks about

No one warns you about the post-wedding blues—but they’re real, and they can hit harder than expected. After months (or even years) of planning, hype, and adrenaline, the sudden silence that follows can feel… unsettling. One moment, you’re in the middle of a whirlwind of decisions, celebrations, and countdowns. The next, you’re sitting in a quiet room wondering, “So… what now?”

Your Day. Your Rules. Ditch the Outdated Traditions

Stop Following Rules That Aren’t Yours.

Your wedding isn’t a museum piece—and it doesn’t need to look like your parents’, your friends’, or the “perfect” Pinterest wedding you’ve seen on repeat.

Let’s rip the Band-Aid off: just because it’s tradition doesn’t mean it belongs at your wedding. Too many couples follow outdated rituals, not because they adore them, but because they feel they have to. Spoiler alert: you don’t.

Craft Less - Celebrate More

We need to talk about the dark side of DIY.

It’s not always the cute, budget-friendly win Pinterest makes it out to be. What starts as a fun, creative idea can quickly turn into late nights, hot glue burns, frantic trips to Bunnings, and a whole lot of “Why did we think this was a good idea?”

Are you Exhausted or thriving in your wedding planning atm??

Let’s be honest—wedding planning burnout is real, and no one talks about it until it’s already taken the joy out of the experience.

You start full of energy: Pinterest boards, colour swatches, spreadsheets, champagne…
You end up exhausted, overwhelmed, and wondering why you’re crying over chair covers you don’t even care about.

It creeps up slowly—decision by decision, email by email—until the spark starts to fade.
The pressure to “do it all” (and do it perfectly) is a lie.
You are not weak for needing a break. You are not behind. You are not doing it wrong.

You’re just doing too much alone.

Your Wedding & Their opinions OKAY!

This is your day—and the second you start people-pleasing, you start watering down the magic.

We’ve watched couples exhaust themselves trying to meet everyone’s expectations—adding random traditions they don’t care about, changing the menu for picky guests, or inviting people out of guilt.

What is Wedding Content Creation?

Content creation is all about the real, raw, unfiltered moments of your day. It’s not about cinematic editing, slow-motion shots, or perfect poses. Instead, it’s the laughter between takes, the nervous hand squeezes, the tears before the aisle walk, and the excitement of friends getting ready in matching robes.

Think of content creation as your wedding’s “third eye.”

The Wedding or The Honeymoon - invest in what matters for YOU!

When it comes to planning a wedding, there’s a growing trend that’s flipping the script: skipping the traditional celebration altogether—and heading straight into honeymoon mode.

More and more couples are rethinking how they celebrate their love, choosing to invest in what matters most to them. For some, that’s a luxury honeymoon in the Amalfi Coast. For others, it’s a house deposit or a year-long adventure around the globe. The big white wedding? It’s just not the dream anymore—and that’s okay.

So, why are couples trading vows for vacation stamps? Let’s unpack the shift.

Your Partner Should get a SAY!!

A wedding is a celebration of two people choosing each other, so it only makes sense that both voices matter in the planning process. Still, it’s common to see grooms pushed to the sidelines—either because tradition says so, or because they’re labelled as the partner who “doesn’t care.” But that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Let’s talk about why involving your partner—yes, the groom!—is not only important but totally game-changing.

big weddings are overrated - intimate weddings are the best!

An intimate wedding gives you the freedom to be fully present. You get to savor every moment, spend quality time with the people who truly matter, and invest in details that create a magical experience rather than just managing a huge crowd.
