Gold Coast Weddings Advice

Are you getting married on the Gold Coast or in Brisbane? Who will be your Gold Coast wedding photographers?
Here is a list of some of the things you should consider when looking for Gold Coast wedding photographers.
Personality.
When selecting Gold Coast wedding photographers you are selecting more than just a photographer for your wedding day. You are hiring a wedding photographer that will be with you, your family and your group all day on your wedding day. Personality is a huge part of the selection process and should not be overlooked or discounted in anyway. Your Gold Coast wedding photographers personality can set the tone for your entire wedding day and your bridal party. Ultimately it can impact your wedding photography altogether. You will more than likely be working with your wedding photographer for a year, or longer in some cases, by the time you factor in your engagement session and post wedding photography and albums.
Price.
While price is always a factor when selecting your Gold Coast wedding photographers, it should not be the only thing that matters. All too often we hear horror stories from brides who made a decision for their wedding photography based purely on price. It turns out to be foolish in the end. When its all said and done, your wedding photography will be all you have to remember your wedding day.
Wedding albums.
What will you do with all your images from your Gold Coast wedding photographers? Most people opt to place them in a beautifully designed wedding album that your wedding photographer should provide you with. Don’t underestimate the importance of a wedding album from your wedding day. This is your first family heirloom and your one keepsake you will have forever to remember your wedding day. When selecting Gold Coast wedding photographers you should look for an album that best represents you and your new family. Wedding albums come in all shapes and sizes. Questions you should ask. Your Gold Coast wedding photographers 1) How many pages come in the wedding album? 2) How many images will be in the wedding album? 3) What cover options are available for my wedding album?
Coverage.
Something often overlooked when selecting a Gold Coast wedding photographers is the number of hours that will be offered during the coverage of your Gold Coast wedding. Typically you will want your wedding photographer to be with you to document all the moments of your wedding day. After all, that’s what you are hiring them for. That being said, typical coverage requirements for your wedding day should be about 8-10 hours. Be careful here. Some wedding photographers offer cut-rate prices by offering you less than adequate wedding coverage for your day. These become hidden costs and once you realize it, it’s often too late.
Number of wedding photographers.
How many Gold Coast wedding photographers will be at your event? Most events need at least two wedding photographers. This ensures that your wedding photographer is focused on working with your group and directing the day and allows the second wedding photographer to have coverage going on at the same time. We find that by having two Gold Coast wedding photographers at your event, your wedding photography needs can best be met all while ensuring that nothing gets missed from your big day.

Willie & Tahlia – The Glades, Robina, Gold Coast
This photogenic duo created a glamorous affair for their Robina real wedding at The Glades.
With thanks to a large budget and an organised bride, Willie and Tahlia Dixon made some unforgettable memories along with 65 of their closest friends and family.
Date: 5 April 2014The Couple: Willie and Tahlia DixonLocation: The Glades, Robina, Gold CoastNo. of Guests: 65First Dance Song: Watch Over Me – Bernard FanningTheme: Black, white and blingBudget: $35 000 plus – without honeymoon
How did you meet? Willie and I met through our mutual friends when I was 17 and he was 21. Our good friends continuously tried to set us up until one day we finally got to talking and once we did, we never stopped.How did you meet? Willie and I met through our mutual friends when I was 17 and he was 21. Our good friends continuously tried to set us up until one day we finally got to talking and once we did, we never stopped.
Tell us about the proposal… We were holidaying in New Zealand and Willie had organised a surprise dinner at the revolving restaurant in the Sky Tower in Auckland. Once we were there he had originally planned on proposing on the observation deck but didn’t realise how many tourists would be there so he had to think of another plan. Once we got to the restaurant he snuck off and spoke with the chef who then wrote in chocolate on my desert plate will you marry me?
Why did you choose The Glades for your wedding? I just fell in love with it. I instantly knew I wanted to get married there the minute I saw it. I wanted an outdoor ceremony and the lawn area, the gardens and the view was just divine.What did you do for your hens and bucks? I had nothing to do with the planning of my hens weekend. My five wonderful bridesmaids planned the whole thing and I never knew what was coming next! We started off in a beautiful suite at the Mantra Circle on Cavill Avenue, where we were joined by the rest of the guests, followed by some hilarious entertainment. After a few drinks we went onto the second location where I had some more entertainment at a night club and danced the night away. The boys stayed in a lovely house on the Sunshine Coast. They had some entertainment of their own, went paint balling and swam and drunk lots!
DIY Details I hand made all of my photo booth props and hanging pom poms. I bought a lot of my own decorations for the reception such as my lolly buffet, birdcage wishing wells, candles and drink dispensers for after the ceremony.Key Styling Inspiration I wanted something visually beautiful that wouldn’t date! I wanted lots of white with a bit of black and of course bling. The bridesmaids dresses and flowers worked great by adding that pop of colour.
What gifts did you give your guests? We gave them black baroque frames that doubled as their name card holder.
What was the funniest moment of the day? There were actually quite a few funny moments. During our ceremony, our celebrant made a small mistake by asking Willie to, “take me as his lawful wedded husband”. Which threw him off a bit and of course ended in fits of laughter. Willie’s brothers speech – although written on a coaster – went for quite a while and was filled with hilarious stories and memories.What was the most special memory from the day? Other than marrying the love of my life, having all of our family and friends come together to witness Willie and I get married. It was amazing. We feel very blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives.
What did you do for your honeymoon? We went to New York, San Francisco, L.A, Vegas and Hawaii. We had an absolute blast! Some of the highlights were; seeing all the sights in each city, going to watch a basketball, ice hockey and baseball game, snorkelling with turtles, cycling through Central Park, seeing two Cirque Du Soleil shows in Vegas, going to Disneyland and Universal studios, hiring a car and driving around Waikiki.
Special thanks to…All of our family and friends. A lot of them made such an effort to be there for our wedding day and we will be forever thankful.What advice would you give to future brides-to-be? Book the major things first, a lot of the popular suppliers and venues go quickly! To do lists: I may have planned my whole wedding in the notes section of my iPhone (this I probably wouldn’t recommend) but it was so handy to have it with me wherever I went and to add things to whenever I needed. Looking at lots of wedding photos for inspiration was a great way for me to figure out what I wanted my wedding to be like- which came in handy for when I went shopping or had to choose colours etc.Ceremony: Circle of Love // Reception: The Glades Golf Course Robina // Gown: Strictly Bridal // Bridesmaid Attire: Luv Bridal // Groom’s Suit: Roger David // Groomsmen Attire: Roger David // Decorator: Table Toppers // Flowers: Devine Flowers // Hair: Allure hair and make-up // Makeup: Allure hair and make-up // Cake: The Flour Girl // Caterer:The Glades Golf Course, Robina // Transport: Image Limousines // Stationery: zazzle.com for our save the dates and the bride’s mum made wedding invitations. // Music: United Djs Gold Coast // Photographer: Rezolution Photography // Honeymoon: Ron Knight- Knight Flight // Celebrant: Tennille Jones // Engagement Ring: Diamonds International //Bride’s Wedding Ring: Diamonds International // Groom’s Wedding Ring: Diamonds International // Photo Booth: In the Booth //

Natasha & Stuart – La Digue, SeychellesNatasha and Stuart – La Digue, Seychelles WeddingWe travelled from Brisbane, Australia all the way to South Africa and then on to Seychelles for this wedding of Natasha and Stuart.The Seychelles are located about 4 hours flight east of Johannesburg. We have never shot a wedding in such a hot place on the wedding day it was about 36 degrees with 100% humidity and not a breath of wind. La Digue is the Island where the wedding took place and its simply beautiful, Its takes about 1 hour 20min on a fast ferry to reach the Island from the main Island of Mahi. What an awesome place to shoot with the best beaches in the world and Pirate ships and the perfect sunset every night. Stuart and Natasha both live in QLD on the Northern Gold Coast, so when we were asked to travel to this tropical location we just couldn’t refuse.
This wedding was very different as most guests arrived via bicycle (no cars on the island) and the bride made her way to the church by Ox cart (yes ox cart), the Ceremony took place in a grand church which was just missing aircon but it did have many fans that did a good job of stopping the guests from passing out.Every guest came out of that church drenched in sweat, We tried to pull all the guests together for a group shot but the blistering heat was too much to stand outside for a group photo.All the guests were then treated in Ox ride of their own, A convoy of about 10-12 Ox carts worked there way up the islands hills to the reception venue, The guests were treated to the local choir walking along side the Ox carts singing local songs of joy.
Stu and Natasha worked hard during the wedding, they greeted all guests one on one and gave each guest a special gift, they did a great job in the Photo shoot (especially Stu) as we dragged them from beach to beach and had them standing next to Pirate ships and amongst huge spider webs all in the extreme heat.
Below are a few shots to show this beautiful wedding, If you are planning your wedding in the Seychelles then please give us a call as we think we are expert Seychelles wedding photographers now. Enjoy.

Kieran and I met on the first day of high school back in 2000. We weren’t the best of friends to begin with but over the years we became great friends. About mid way through year 12 we began to see each other differently and ended up at a party playing a game of spin the bottle. I spun up Kieran and after that first kiss I have never looked back, I knew from that moment this was something special. Just before our 8yr anniversary I arrived home to find Kieran in our bedroom surrounded by candle light, kneeling on a bed of red rose petals holding a ring box. I couldn’t believe my eyes, he had covered our bed with rose petals in the shape of a heart with the words “Marry Me” in the middle. I have no idea what he had said at this moment I was completely in shock and overwhelmed by happiness. He stood up and placed the stunning ring on my finger and asked again, of cause my answer was yes.
