Modern can still be timeless, and this shoot at Maleny Retreat proves just that. Captured by Ash and Stone and styled by Made to Match Events, ‘Botanica’ showcases an alternative to the rustic weddings the Sunshine Coast is best known for, with a contemporary monochrome palette and gilded accents to create an elegant look that will stand the test of time.

From the first frames which reveal striking black stationery by Paige Tuzee with the most luxurious emerald green ring box by Amonie, we get a sense of the refined design of this shoot, furthered by the delicate and distinctive rings by Mark Neil Jewellers and the classic car in dark green which collects the stylish bride. Wearing a gown by One Day Bridal from Love Marie Bridal Boutique with a plunging back and sheer overlay, she sports just the right amount of sparkle while her groom oozes sophistication in a white Wil Valor jacket.

Large white geometric structures from The Perfect Party Co, with lighting by Out of the Dark Event Lighting and florals by Woods and Bloom, frame the ceremony perfectly and provide a new take on the rolling green landscape.

Beneath a Sperry Tent, the table setting features bold black and white stationery, tableware by The Supper Club, and florals in white with the green and golden tones of the magnolia leaves adding a touch of warmth and texture. Furniture by Brandition in black and gold is bold yet understated, matching the couple’s style to a tee.
