Planning a wedding from abroad can be overwhelming, but with the support of our amazing team and trusted suppliers, Lauren and Ricardo were able to see their dream wedding brought to life seamlessly. Every detail was carefully managed to ensure a stress-free planning journey and a beautifully executed celebration.

The bride had a clear and inspired vision from the beginning: a romantic forest wedding that felt natural, intimate, and magical. The creative direction embraced the beauty of Winery Road Forest, enhancing the setting with lush greenery, crisp white florals, and rich emerald green and gold accents. These tones were perfectly complemented by the venue’s signature dark wooden tables, creating a warm and atmospheric woodland aesthetic.

A standout detail of the design was the custom emerald green table runners, specially created by one of our suppliers exclusively for this wedding. This bespoke touch added depth and cohesion to the overall styling, elevating the forest setting into something truly unique.Adding a deeply personal element, the bride designed all of the stationery herself. Her creative vision tied beautifully into the overall aesthetic, with every detail harmonising effortlessly against the natural forest backdrop.
