GILDED & UNTAMED//

Ballarat, this one’s for you.

Our first editorial shoot featuring Ballarat Wedding Guide vendors, and it felt exactly how we imagined.

Moody light, heritage interiors, and a real couple who completely leaned into the moment. Fe and Nick brought a quiet intensity that you can’t stage, just real connection, captured in a way that feels both refined and a little undone.

Set within the walls of Craig’s Royal Hotel, this shoot was all about contrast. Gilded surroundings with an untamed edge. Romance that feels deeper, moodier, and just a little less traditional.

And this is only the beginning.

VENDOR SPOTLIGHT //

Say hello to Brit and Sarah from Modern Love, joining us at the Ballarat Wedding Guide Expo at the Ballarat Mining Exchange.

Modern Love is all about making wedding planning feel easier, more organised and actually enjoyable. Whether you’re starting from scratch or already part way through, Brit offers a range of planning options to support you at every stage.

From full wedding planning, where every detail is taken care of from venue sourcing through to your full vendor team, to partial planning for couples who have the big pieces locked in but need help bringing it all together, Modern Love is there to guide the process with clarity and intention.

They also offer customised packages, perfect for couples who just need that extra support on the day or something tailored to suit their exact needs.

What really stands out is their approach to styling. It’s not just about making things look pretty, it’s about creating a cohesive feel across your entire day, ensuring every detail works together seamlessly while staying aligned with your budget.

If you’re wanting a wedding that feels considered, well planned and stress free, Modern Love is the kind of support you’ll be glad to have.

Pro Tip: Even if you don’t need full planning, having a professional step in for styling or coordination can completely change how smoothly your day runs.

WEDDING ADVICE// What you should never DIY for your wedding!

Yes, we love a creative couple… but some things? Better left to the pros.

These are the wedding tasks you really shouldn’t DIY, unless you want stress, safety risks, or a few regrets down the track.
