Follow your bohemian heart and be inspired by these dreamy, whimsical wedding vibes.
“The inspiration for this collaboration of local, ethical and conscious vendors was to reflect a true bohemian feel for the relaxed bride and groom wanting to step outside a formal wedding for a more whimsical picnic-style celebration.”
– Nicole Bull, Stylist, Penny Lane Studio
Denya’s eco-friendly floral neckpiece by Blue Mountains Floral Designs was influenced by tribal feels. All the florals in the shoot were created with a 100% biodegradable base and seasonal, Australian-grown flowers. The blooms were collected to be gifted or composted afterwards.
Monique Laing from Savour & Adore dived into her true native cooking skills using natural flavours of real spices for her Persian love cake, which is topped with buttercream icing flavoured and coloured naturally using blood oranges.
Model Denya Aroha wears a timeless dress from Bella Boheme in Springwood, which can be worn for years to come rather tucked away after the big day. Denya’s hair and makeup was styled with organic products by mutli-talented local artist, Tania Bowers.
Dantosa Blue Mountains Retreat with its stunning private lake and beautifully appointed accommodation, is set on nine acres of parklands offering a secluded backdrop for intimate wedding gatherings.
