Rachel did an amazing job on my wedding day and made me, my bridesmaids and mum all look stunning! She was also such a calm and reassuring presence the morning of as well; only after having gone through the wedding do you realise how important the hairstylist and MUA are to setting the tone for the day for the bridal party, and both her and my wonderful MUA made the morning run so smoothly and calmly, it felt like having two close friends there helping me the morning of! Would highly recommend Rachel for any bride looking for a mobile hairstylist!

Kathryn did an amazing job on my wedding day and made me, my bridesmaids and mum all look stunning! Even though we all had very different skin tones, she made sure we all looked beautiful, natural and not over-the-top. She was also such a calm and reassuring presence the morning of the wedding; only after having gone through the wedding do you realise how important the MUA and hairstylist are to setting the tone for the day for the bridal party, and Kathryn and my hairstylist made the morning run so smoothly and calmly, it felt like having two close friends there helping me the morning of! Would highly recommend Kathryn for any bride looking for a mobile MUA!

Naomi is such a beautiful soul and one of the reasons I kept coming back to Bella Notte Bridal. Even though I didn’t end up purchasing my dress from her (I was deliberating hard between a dress here and another one elsewhere), I did end up purchasing my veil from her which was stunning. Naomi provided exceptional service, very personal and welcoming, and also provided advice and guidance around other aspects of wedding-related attire. No question or request was too much hassle and I’m really grateful to have met Naomi and had her store so close by during my wedding planning experience (this was when they were still located in Tuggeranong ACT). Would highly recommend Bella Notte Bridal to any prospective bride looking for a first-class wedding gown shopping experience.

Susan created one of the most visually stunning and also delicious cakes for our wedding last weekend. She is a true artist. My husband and I received so many compliments from guests throughout the evening and after about how delicious our cake was (particularly the lemon flavour) and also how beautiful it was. Susan was also a breeze to work with and an excellent communicator, would highly recommend Cakes of Your Dreams to any prospective couple looking for a visually stunning and delicious wedding cake!

Becky is an amazing dance instructor and crafted a wonderful first dance routine for my husband and I. She took a nervous couple with four left feet and no formal dance experience and crafted a routine that made us look smooth, natural and wowed all our guests. She also recorded the routine at the end of every lesson so we had something to reference in between lessons when we practiced. Would highly recommend Becky for any couple looking for dance lessons to help with learning their wedding first dance routine, she is an absolute gem!

We had the pleasure of having Smooth Ops play for our wedding reception and they were fantastic! Justin and the Smooth Ops team were absolutely amazing and created such an upbeat and eclectic atmosphere the entire evening. Both my husband and I had so much fun dancing the entire night with the rest of our guests and we've never seen our families have so much fun on the dance floor; literally everyone was dancing until the very last song! They played so many hits and crowd pleasers and catered our demographic exceptionally! Would 100% recommend Justin and his team for any event, thank you for making our night perfect!

From the moment my husband and I stepped foot onto Ginninderry Homestead, we knew we’d found the venue we wanted for our wedding. The grounds are magnificent and fitted with the rustic country estate vibe that we were going for. Also the fact that you book the entire venue from Friday afternoon to Sunday morning, with enough accommodation on site for the bridal party meant that set-up and logistics was an absolute breeze – we were able to do a ceremony rehearsal on site on the Friday and set up random bits and pieces for the reception. Sharon and Amelia were wonderful to work with both in the lead up and during the event – no question or request was too much and communication was excellent throughout. Sharon became like our fairy godmother in the lead up, we had a few last-minute unanticipated changes and she did everything in her power to make sure everything was perfect for us. The food was also incredible, and we had so many compliments afterwards from guests saying that it was the best food they’d ever had at a wedding! Thank you so much to Sharon and her team for making our day truly magical – we would highly recommend Ginninderry Homestead as a venue for any function, but particularly for weddings, it’s a magical place that needs to be seen and experienced first-hand!

Elena was an amazing celebrant and exactly what we were looking for. We’d previously looked at quite a few other celebrants and Elena was definitely the standout by far. From our first meeting with her, we instantly clicked, and we loved her personality, vibe and overall presence. Elena weaved a beautiful story about my husband and I and made the ceremony so personal, intimate and inclusive. She even went to great lengths to incorporate phrases from my Chinese heritage into the ceremony – absolutely went above and beyond. We had so many guests come up to us later in the day to say how much they enjoyed the ceremony and that they felt they knew us so much better after hearing our ceremony! Elena was also breeze to work with – she’s extremely organised, and was an excellent communicator throughout; no question or request was too much. Elena also came to our ceremony rehearsal and helped us run through the proceedings, and also made us these lovely vow cards for my husband and I to read our vows off on the day. She is also one of the most stylish women I have ever met, and the dress she wore for our ceremony was stunning and fit perfectly with our colour scheme! We’re so grateful to have found Elena and very glad that we chose her to marry us. We would highly recommend Elena to any couple looking for a warm, genuine, personalised and inclusive celebrant for their special day!
