Swept away

It's been a funny couple of weeks weather wise here in Sydney. We've had pouring rain one day and beautifully sunny the next. It got me thinking about winter weddings in Australia. Unless your planning to go up into the mountains, a winter wedding Aussie style is not the usual snow flakes and pine cones that you might come across in other countries.

Obviously beach weddings in Australia are extremely popular. But what about in the winter? So this mood board is inspired by a winter beach wedding. Moody storm clouds, grey beach pebbles set off with stunning silver. The ultimate elegant beach wedding.
