Maddie and Ryan said "I do" at the stunning Saltwater Restaurant Fingal Bay, and what a day it was! This beautiful couple made our job so easy with their relaxed vibes and infectious happiness—it was an absolute pleasure to bring their vision to life.

Saltwater was transformed into a tropical chic dream with a palette of whites and greens, creating an elegant yet effortless atmosphere. Think lush greenery, crisp white blooms, and the magic of the ocean in the background. Perfection.

And can we talk about how incredible these photos are? Huge shoutout to Sera Luna Co for capturing every detail so perfectly. The love and joy Maddie and Ryan radiate shines through every image, making all the florals look even more stunning. Thanks team!

Cheers to Maddie and Ryan for being the kind of couple who remind us why we love what we do. Ready to plan your big day? Let’s create something just as special.

When love meets the sea... and a whole lot of flowers! This dreamy arbour at Saltwater for Dom and Sharnah is giving us all the feels all over again. The soft, romantic tones of the blooms paired with those stunning coastal views? Absolute perfection *chefs kiss*

We’ve been teaming up with Saltwater for years to create wedding magic like this, and we’re so proud to support and work with such an amazing local venue. It’s all about celebrating love, community, and those unforgettable “I do” moments.

Who says inspiration has to follow the rules? You don't need to be trawling through Pinterest, Insta or TikTok (except ours of course!) and get swallowed up by current trends.

Here at A Beautiful Occasion we’re all about creating florals that match your vibe—whether you’re inspired by your favorite color, a sunset walk, colour of your fav fruit or even a mood board; we match your bouquet to you!

Like this one - think soft and romantic, with pops of muted peaches and pinks to bring the effervescent personality of the Bride and Bridesmaids to life through their dreamy and romantic bouquets.

The possibilities are endless when you work with us!
