Think bright + bold. We want everyone to blend seamlessly with the garden around us, and to feel beautiful & comfortable in what they are wearing. The theme is garden party cocktail / formal. That means all the colours and textures of mother nature around us. We have prepared the mood board to give you a visual idea tones we would love to see on our day (but not limited to). Please no all black or white. Cream, beige and browns are great! Plus all the other colours in the colour wheel. For the suit wearers, please no green suits and a white shirt if you must (no black and white formal style suits).

Tasmania: the land of the cleanest air in the world (fact), insane nature, kind people and a deep presence of calm. These are just some of the reasons we have fallen in love with Tasmania, and we hope you do to. Over the years we have visited this island many times, so wanted to share with you our top tips and recommendations. 1. Book your flights as early as possible. Only a couple of airlines fly direct to Hobart from Canberra, so the flights fill up fast. 2. If you are staying for longer than a few days, hire a car. Hobart doesn't have very good public transport, so you will need a car to get around, especially if you want to see other areas. 3. There is so much more to Tassie than just Hobart! If you're making the trip down here, we really recommend staying a few extra days to soak up all the beauty if you can. The below tips are just a few of the things that we have loved, but there's so much more you can find on Google, Insta + Tourism Tasmania. One of our favourite parts of Tassie is driving out and stopping at whatever peaks your interest. This is how we have had some of our best adventures.

This is cider land.
