The first and most obvious route to take would appear to be the wonderful services we have in town and the people behind them that make them so special.

I personally believe what sets tenterfield specifically apart from any other small town as THE country wedding destination is - the people.

All the vendors I know and have worked with genuinely care.

Yes, these are businesses, but they're businesses that exist purely because they genuinely care.

Passionate bakers, celebrants, decorators, and everything in between..buckle up as we share them all and put faces to the names for you.

- CELEBRANT -

First up, you can't get married without a Celebrant!

So it seemed a fitting choice to introduce you to one of our amazing local ones - Alli from AB Celebrations

The weddings Alli and I have worked together have gifted me a glimpse into what she's like with her clients, and the words that come to mind are;

- attentative
- caring
- committed.

It's all her little extra touches, check-ins, and considerations that make her service so personal to a big day.

Yet again, just cementing why getting married in a small town makes a big difference.

We know our couples by name and the little bits and pieces that make their partnership unique.

So if you're in the market for a local celebrant that cares about you as much as officiating your big day, be sure to get in touch.

So proud to be involved in Lara’s project! Women empowering other women 💖💖

Alli, celebrating 45 fabulous years with the Your Face, Your Story Project.

I had a lovely catch up with Alli yesterday and we shot the breeze for a while. Alli said so many things which I truly adored. Getting to know the women doing the Your Face, Your Story Project has affected me in more ways than I could ever have imagined. God women are amazing.

Alli is going to involve her daughter Yasmine in her shoot to not only celebrate Alli but also her daughter, and that special Mother/daughter bond.

I asked Alli why she wanted to get involved in the Your Face, Your Story Project and she replied with the following, “I believe in the empowerment of women of all ages, and I want to teach my daughter to love herself, just the way she is. If by showing the world my image teachers her to love herself more, then I have succeeded in my mission.”

I also asked Alli what the project meant to her, and this was her response, “That everyone’s lives are different and that you can never truly know someone until you touch deep into their soul. A photography is a snapshot of that soul at a certain time of life, never to be the same again.”

How cool sounds so trite. But that is what I thought when I read Alli’s words and subsequently I got all goose bumpy!

The Your Face, Your Story Project is a project of inspiration involved 40 incredible women over 40. It is all about celebrating people, just the way they are and challenging the stereotypes of ageing.

I look forward to sharing the faces and stories of this project with you in the coming months.

What a magical Autumn we had here at Glenrock Gardens 🍂🍁

The gardens looked absolutely stunning this Autumn season, with the colours lasting longer than usual. As we welcome in Winter and most of the trees and plants go into a hibernation mode of sorts, we're looking back at our Autumn season and the beauty that it was.

What is your favourite section of the gardens?
