Were very communicative, any time of day or night. Went above and beyond with trying to make our wedding vision a reality. Were flawless on the day, adapting to any issues that arose and completely relieved us of any stress. They also always had a a friendly positive attitude with a no worries vibe.

Perfection down to the detail. Hunter Events offers end to end service for your wedding, as planners and stylists. Louise called me within 2 minutes of submitting my query, and she welcomed us into her office to discuss our wedding planning needs. Every single detail was considered and she has a wide network of contacts within the Hunter Region and NSW to bring your vision to life. Her team always followed up and kept track of costs, suppliers and communications. Louise and team are like family and we had such a positive experience with Hunter Events. We are terribly sad that our wedding is over and we will miss them dearly!. Louise always has a solution and contingencies for her couples and is a problem solver. Even on the day support, she went above and beyond with her ready to go emergency kit (sewing kit, bobby pins). Highly recommend!

We found the company easy to work with and very understanding of our needs. The planning became more stress free and I didn't have to worry about set up as Hunter Events had is covered 😊 this was a major relief off our day as we had to travel 5hrs to our location the day before. We found pricing of our services reasonable for what we needed and Gaby did amazing set up at our venue for the day as well as was a super calming presence before the ceremony. All in all we had a fabulous day and it definitely wouldn't have been pulled off without Hunter Events help. Sincerely Mr & Mrs Langdon

There are no words to truly describe how wonderful the ladies at Hunter Events are. Lousie, Gabby and the team work so hard at providing their couples with the most amazing day. Their attention to detail is second to none! I could not have pulled off a wedding without them! Truly, every aspect of the day ran seamlessly because of them and I can honestly say if there was even the slightest of hitches I had no clue because they had absolutely every last thing handled! They also were so truly amazing in the lead up to the big day and offered so much support, care and kindness to a bride who was very anxious but because of them I got to the day and felt nothing but confidence. I was able to 100% enjoy my day and be in the moment with my new husband because of them!

What are your predictions for future wedding styling trends?

We're looking to get married in 2024. What do you predict will be in/popular for wedding styling by then? Something new and interesting?

Hunter Events NSW

As we approach the end of 2022, planning for 2023/2024 weddings are well underway. So what trends are we set to see coming into the new year?

Couples have begun moving away from tradition and allowing more of their personality to show through in their styling.

We are going to see vibrant, bright colours with bold use of seasonal florals and minimal greenery in larger installations and distinctive use of stationary. Think citrus tones, festival theme and 70’s vibes.

Although we have the use of bold floral installations, tablescapes will become simple & minimal.

We will also see weddings featuring earth tones including white, natural linen, cream, brown & burnt orange throughout their florals, attire & tablescapes.

Mismatched colours, styles and patterns of bridesmaid dresses will continue to rise in popularity giving the bridesmaids much more of a chance to show their personality, be comfortable and hopefully buy a dress they will wear again.

Sustainability will become more important to couples. This will be shown through a trend of digital invitations, menus per table rather than per person, skipping the favours, seasonal florals and re-purposing.

Many will continue to opt for smaller, intimate weddings and elopements. We will also see the number of weekday weddings grow.

The popularity of videography has been on the rise and this is set to continue due to social media trend of videos spurred through tiktok and reels.

Audio and video guest books will join polaroid cameras as a popular alternative to the traditional written book.

How to incorporate something blue into our wedding

I'd love to include the "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" tradition into our wedding. What are some modern ideas for including something blue?

Hunter Events NSW

The centuries-old wedding rhyme "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" describes a superstition around four objects a bride should wear or carry with her on her wedding day for good luck.

While they’ve taken on slightly different meanings overtime, each is still a chance for brides to incorporate some symbolism on their special day.

‘Something old’ initially represented protection for a bride’s future child, but many brides choose to use this to incorporate special memories and people from their past into their day like family heirlooms or swatch of a family members wedding gown.

‘Something new’ represents optimism for the future. Traditionally this would be given to the bride by a member of her family, but some couples now choose to give their partner a gift to open and wear on their wedding day.

‘Something borrowed’ refers to an item from a happily married person to incorporate into your wedding day which is said to transfer their good luck to your own marriage. This can be a great way to honour a couple who has had a profound impact on your relationship like parents or grandparents.

‘Something blue’ is where modern brides start to get creative. Historically, a blue garter was worn representing purity, fidelity and to ward off the ‘Evil Eye’.

Some simple ways to incorporate the colour is with accessories including shoes, purses, coats or jackets, jewellery, hair pieces or nail polish colour.

The object doesn’t need to be visible, you could opt for blue undergarments, keep it traditional with a blue garter or have the groom or bridal party write on the bottom of your shoes in blue marker.

Ask your florist to use blue silk ribbon around the stem of the bouquet, a touch of blue florals tucked inside or place a small arrangement of blue florals in your hair.

Blue embroidery can be a simple, unique, and meaningful way to incorporate this colour into your day, visible or not. This could be the wedding date on the inside of your dress or bottom of your veil.

Why not make a statement with your gown or veil? Many modern brides are opting to ignore the tradition of an all-white dress, there’s nothing stopping you from adding in some splashes of blue, having a fully blue dress or having a blue reception dress.

Just because it is supposed to be an object a bride carries or wears doesn’t mean you can’t incorporate it elsewhere in your day instead. Tablecloths, napkins, flowers, candles, stationary, crockery, drapery, bridesmaids’ dresses, groomsmen attire, ring box, the options are endless.
