Amy and Alessio

Amy and Alessio held their reception at Orso Bayside Reception at The Spit in Mosman, NSW. “Across the road was perfect for photos, and the balcony was so great for people to look out at the water and boats, and just hang outside,” says Amy.

Mikaela and Scott

Mikaela and Scott held their wedding at Tathra Surf Life Saving Club – which donates the venue free directly back into the lifesaving club to help their volunteers.

The guests at their beachfront wedding were also treated to a selection of fresh local seafood. “Scott and I designed and built a fish and chip cart at home on the farm,” says Mikaela. “The cart served cones of freshly fried flathead and chips to guests. This was an enormous hit! We also had one of the chefs outside on the deck barbecuing prawns, scallops, and lamb cutlets.”

Stephanie and Robbie

Robbie proposed to Stephanie while the two were holidaying in Indonesia. “He managed to find a secluded section of white sandy beach, framed with palm trees and with a view across the still water of the sun setting behind Bali,” says Stephanie.

In keeping with the seaside proposal, the couple held their beach wedding on Rottnest Island, WA. “We had a beach ceremony followed by celebratory drinks and nibbles on the beach immediately after, which was followed by a cocktail style reception in a private marquee on the beachfront at the Rottnest Hotel.”

Rhian and Phil

English-born Phil and Australian Rhian, though they now live in the UK, returned to Australia to host their beach wedding on the Sunshine Coast. The ceremony at Sunshine Beach Surf Club was followed by a reception at the same location for a chilled vibe.

“It was a relaxed and laid-back beach holiday combined with a wedding, connecting friends and family from all round the globe,” says Rhian. “Our guests had time to get to know each other in the lead up – high tea, fishing, beach time, beauty parlour, group meal – maximising party time on the big day!”

The weather was perfect for a beach wedding, and Naomi’s bridesmaids wore stunning aqua coloured gowns – a fitting colour for the seaside.
