Last week, an extraordinary team of Sydney's Northern Beaches wedding vendors joined forces to create a breathtaking wedding styled shoot. The collaboration resulted in a collection of awe-inspiring imagery, showcasing the exceptional talents and expertise of each individual involved. From the skilled photography by Hayley Rafton to the meticulous styling by Events by Bex, every vendor played a crucial role in bringing this creative vision to life.
Let's dive in...
Capturing Magical Moments: Leading the photography for the styled shoot was the immensely talented Hayley Rafton. Hayley's ability to capture candid, emotional, and authentic moments is truly remarkable. With a refined eye for detail, Hayley's images effortlessly transport you back to the very essence of the occasion. Each photograph is a testament to her expertise and showcases the team's hard work and creativity.
These three beautiful women below I hand picked from the first moment I met them, for my own wedding day in November 2022... seeing them on set together again had my heart soaring for this full circle moment.
Styling in Style (& always a super cool outfit): Events by Bex, styling helmed by the wonderful planner and stylist Bex, infused the looks with their unique aesthetic and creative vision. Bex's divine talent for curating captivatingly fun and always personalised wedding experiences shines through in every detail. Together with Florist Laura from Solasta Blooms, Bex crafted an ambiance that perfectly complemented the venue's beauty, resulting in a truly enchanting setting.
Blooms: Solasta Blooms, led by the talented florist Laura, brought nature's beauty to life with their exquisite floral arrangements. Laura designed a mix of captivating bouquets, centrepieces, and floral installations that were total modern floral artworks. Those midnight purple mini calla lily's though!
Celebrating Beauty (& Friendship): Helen Samaryan Makeup
Discover the divine magic of Helen Samaryan, an expert in makeup artistry and a dear friend... A completely talented artist who from the very first time she painted my face 7 years ago I knew she would one day do my make up for my wedding... Helen enhances natural features, creating captivating looks. Her warm demeanour ensures a relaxed experience, making brides feel their most beautiful.
Unforgettable Rentals: Event Hire Services Sydney provided a swoon worthy selection of classic and modern hire items that added an extra touch of divine detail to the tablescaping. Their attention to detail and commitment to quality make them a top choice for couples seeking both timeless and on-trend rental items. I actually used EHS myself for my own wedding and was completely satisfied by the ease and pricing!
Arriving in Style: Muscle Car Studio, our car hire vendor, provided a touch of glamour and excitement to the styled shoot. Glen, the driver of the epic White Convertible Mustang with that red interior, not only delivered a stunning vehicle but also charmed everyone with his friendly and accommodating nature. Totally Iconic.
Sweet Delights: Vegemammma, the modern cake artist of my dreams, created a delectably petite slice cake doused in pearls. Their truly artistic flair and interesting flavour combinations added a touch of sweet sweet style to our cake cutting moment! The Lemon, Olive Oil, Toasted Hazlenut and Vanilla Buttercream wedding cake was not just a feast for the taste buds but also a total piece for the eyes, beautifully complementing the overall pearly aesthetic.
Setting the Mood: Effortless Favours provided enchanting, romantic candles that set the perfect mood for our tablescape. The EF Candles created a warm and romantic ambiance, adding a touch of magic to the venue...
Elevating Style: Guyz n Dollz, the suit hire vendor, played a crucial role in ensuring that our groom looked chic. With their large range of modern styles Guyz n Dollz had Gus the Groom looking 10/10.
A Breathtaking Setting: Dunes Palm Beach
Nestled along the stunning shores of Palm Beach, the magnificent Dunes Palm Beach served as the picturesque backdrop for our remarkable styled shoot. This stunning venue, with its idyllic coastal charm and breathtaking views, truly captivated our hearts...
With pristine sandy beaches at it's doorstep, swaying palm trees, and panoramic ocean vistas create an enchanting atmosphere that is nothing short of magical. Whether you dream of exchanging vows with the sound of crashing waves in the background or hosting a sophisticated reception against the backdrop of a mesmerising sunset, Dunes Palm Beach offers a setting that will leave you and your guests in awe.
This styled shoot brought together a very special team of vendors who collaborated seamlessly to create visually stunning and pinterest worthy images to inspire our brides and grooms - to be.
