Reimagine the classic country wedding at Verandah House Country Estate, nestled in the breathtaking Tamborine Mountains, drawing inspiration from the rugged drama of Wyoming and the elegant soul of European countryside celebrations.

A poetic collision of the untamed and the elegant—as if a European love story wandered into the wild heart of Australia and never looked back. This vision pays homage to a timeless elegance with a combination of toile, baby blues, and elegant glassware creating a beautiful aesthetic for a refined yet approachable atmosphere.

Blending classic elements with contemporary charm.

A sense of romance and sophistication brought to life with every thoughtfully chosen detail, evoking timeless beauty and intimacy for a celebration that balances a western style tradition and modern luxury in a truly enchanting way, captured by Photos by Rhi.

It’s a story of love, intimacy, and understated luxury.

"The inspiration for this shoot came naturally. I am a big lover of country music, lifestyle and fashion, with my passion for weddings and telling peoples love stories, it was only a matter of time before I brought this vision of mine to fruition.

When coordinating styled shoots, I always work with local vendors who align with my brand and can help bring that vision to life. For this project, I wanted to tell a story—a small-town romance, with two young lovers keeping their wedding intimate, surrounded by just eight of their closest family and friends.

By framing it as an elopement, we embraced simplicity while incorporating the thoughtful touches of a larger celebration." shares Tahlia - Coordinator & Director of Bridal Bliss.

"A beautiful element of this story, inspired by my behind-the-scenes (BTS) content work with real couples, is the idea of getting ready together. More couples are choosing to share these intimate moments—helping each other dress, enjoying the morning together—which I feel will soon become a widespread trend in our industry. It’s such a beautiful way to begin their wedding day with a sense of unity and calm." Tahlia tells - Bridal Bliss.

"The only challenge we faced on the day was the weather! It was a day where there were terrible storms going through the Gold Coast, so we had to move quickly and efficiently as a team in order to ensure that every element was captured beautifully.

I want to personally thank all the incredible vendors I had brought on board as everyone was understanding, crazy talented and made the day work well." Tahlia - Bridal Bliss.
