Earthy Wedding in the Byron Bay Hinterland

A wedding doesn't have to be grand or lavish to leave a lasting impression. For Matilda and William, their wedding was a special moment that brought their loved ones together in one place; not only to witness their love story, but also to enjoy each other's company. Instead of relying on elaborate decoration, the couple opted for understated rustic details that perfectly complemented the serene setting, a farmland where five generations of Matilda's family had been raised.

During the ceremony, Matilda and her flower girls had on beautiful handmade ei, traditional Maori headpieces of the Cook Islands, where William's family came from. After the heartfelt ceremony was finished, the bridal party joined the newlyweds to take pictures under the gigantic fig tree where Matilda's grandfather had played as a child. They then went back to play lawn games at the venue, which by night was transformed into a romantic tent space filled with hanging light bulbs and soft-colored flowers. The mood throughout the day was so warm and inviting that even the talented photographer from Van Middleton Photography could not help but enjoy the festivities. If you happen to be a lover of nature, you will definitely be enchanted by this wedding.
