Mitchell and Amelia envisioned a wedding that embraced a light, organic color palette while blending countryside charm with a sophisticated edge. They wanted their guests to feel immersed in the natural beauty of Mona Farm, with floral arrangements and design elements that felt as though they were part of the landscape. Their vision focused on authenticity, timelessness, and enhancing the venue’s unique character.

Amelia’s experience as a wedding planner and stylist ensured every detail was meticulously crafted. The ceremony featured scalloped umbrellas and abundant floral arrangements that seemed to grow naturally along the aisle. For the reception, the tablescape combined linen signage, organic textures, and vibrant pops of florals and fruits, with each place setting offering its own unique style. The couple prioritized local vendors to highlight the beauty of the South Coast of NSW, creating an event that felt personal and meaningful.

Key planning decisions reflected their personalities and values. A premium food and beverage package ensured their guests enjoyed good wine and good food, while an interactive brass band, Hot Potato Band, kicked off the unforgettable party. A DJ took over later in the evening, providing a high-energy experience complete with a light and smoke show that had everyone on the dance floor until the end of the night.

One of the most unforgettable moments of the day was the Espresso Martini Tower, which replaced a traditional wedding cake. This unique choice reflected Mitchell and Amelia’s personalities and was a hit with their guests. The couple also loved the energy of their glam team in the morning and the moment when Hot Potato Band joined them for their first dance, setting the stage for a lively celebration.

Mitchell and Amelia’s dream team of vendors brought their vision to life seamlessly:

• Florist: Stella from Fritillerie created innovative, collaborative floral designs that enhanced the venue’s natural beauty.
• Bridal Gown Designer: Kate Willa, who designed Amelia’s custom gown, brought her vision to life with creativity and precision, adding a pair of fun gloves to a second gown for the party.
• Photography: Joey Willis Photography, a longtime friend, captured the day in an editorial style that felt natural and personal.
• Hair and Makeup: Grace Roby Hair Design & Christina Santagelo brought energy, expertise, and artistry, making the morning feel effortless and fun.
• Entertainment: Hot Potato Band and a DJ provided unforgettable music and entertainment that kept the party alive.

Amelia reflected, "Stella’s enthusiasm and creativity made the floral arrangements unforgettable. And Kate Willa’s ability to translate my vision into a custom gown was truly remarkable."
