Weddings with a View
Blackbird
Located in the heart of Brisbane’s CBD, Blackbird Weddings will impress your guests with stunning 180-degree views of the Brisbane River, from the Story Bridge down to the Kangaroo Point cliffs. It provides a stunning backdrop for your wedding ceremony and reception.
The reception tables provided by Blackbird are a lovely dark timber look with brushed gold edge. They provide a perfect palette to add table styling – centrepieces, charger plates, gold cutlery and luxury napkins. We do suggest you look at a linen upgrade for your bridal table, with our luxury range of paisley sequin, velvet or natural linens in a huge range of colours. Team that with a backdrop frame, one that certainly doesn’t obscure the view and you have an elegantly styled and beautiful reception room.

The Wedding and Honeymoon Show
How do you create glamour for your wedding reception? So many of our clients are looking for wedding styling ideas and in particular, luxurious and glamorous wedding themes. This is one question that we just LOVE to answer!
At the recent Wedding & Honeymoon Show, presented by Queensland Brides, we setup our gorgeous marquee wedding space with that exact brief in mind.
Luxury weddings have stunning table styling and we captured this with our gorgeous new crystal and glass candle holders – aren’t they divine? They were teamed with beautiful blooms from guru Jacqui M Floral Design. She filled our assorted clear vases with blooms to match the tall toppers and by adding a stack of floating candles in various sized vessels – voila! Magic created if we do say so ourselves!
We teamed the wedding styling table setup with champagne satin cloths, glass beaded chargers with custom menus, crystal stemware and gold cutlery. For the wedding table we continued with stunning fresh florals by Jacqui M, taper candle holders and floating candles and a super cute backdrop with a Mr & Mrs neon sign by Event Letters.
We were joined in the marquee by our great industry friends – Event Letters, In the Booth, G&M Event Group and Event Marquees. We make one hell of a formidable team! What do you think?

The Marquee at Victoria Park Golf Complex, Brisbane
When Silvia and Dennis shared their Pinterest board of wedding ideas with us, we squealed with excitement! True story!! We love it when our couples have a vision of a luxury wedding and come to us to help with executing every little detail.
The arbour at Victoria park is 3 metres wide and deep, and creates a grand stage with steps leading up. It really is the perfect ceremony venue and especially when we get to create a cascading wisteria ceiling in it! Over … stems of white silk wisteria strands were hung, we worked at our head height and when the wisteria was all in place, we sent our structure up to the top of the arbour ceiling. Adding in white chiffon curtains and a floral train at the front completed this transformation of the ceremony space.
Silvia asked that her first two rows of Tiffany chairs be dressed with white woven chiffon and we just love how it adds to the elegance. Adding the silk florals to the aisle chairs and rolling out our perfectly white carpet aisle runner set the scene for this divine couple to seal their marriage.
Inside the large Marquee room at Victoria Park, we had created their luxury wedding wonderland. Tall stands with floral toppers and floating candles adored the guest tables. For the wedding table, we suspended a truss system with florals, greenery and wisteria and the ever so cute “The Clan Tran” neon sign. The bridal table featured our gorgeous tulle rouched skirt and was teamed with loads of floating candles and florals along the front.
We love taking a clients vision and exceeding their expectations and we know from their response that we did that and more!

Ballroom Weddings
at Victoria Park
We love styling the grand Ballroom at Victoria Parl. With high ceilings and large chandeliers it gives us the opportunity to use a huge variety of decor when styling weddings there.
When choosing your wedding reception decor for the Victoria Park Ballroom, think about whether you want to make a feature of a tall centrepiece – perhaps it’s a stand with floral topper? Allowing room to add floating candles at the base. Or, have the large chandeliers as features in the room and keep a nice low styled table. The options are endless!
We do recommend considering adding full length linens from our luxury linen range too. This is a great way to introduce colours to your guest and bridal table.
The large deck to the side of the ballroom makes a great ceremony space and we have a gorgeous range of arches to complement the space! If you are using this for your reception canapes , consider having us add fairylights to the deck roof – it makes it sparkle!

The Marquee at Victoria Park
Thi and Anthony had their beautiful wedding reception at The Marquee, Victoria Park. When you enter this stunning marquee, the large feature chandeliers create a stunning ambience. We often find our clients choose tall, high centrepieces for their guest tables in this room. Using our lovely gold stands, as pictured here, with our faux greenery and floral toppers we were able to achieve height, without interrupting each guests view across the table. Thi was keen to bring a pop of colour into the topper so we added blush and fuschia pink floral heads on each of the 23 guest tables. At the base of the stand was 8 gold mercury votives.
The bridal table featured greenery and coloured floral heads to tie back perfectly to the rest of the room. We added our stemmed vessels with floating candles in three sizes to finish the table. Another beautiful wedding at The Maquee, Victoria Park. Congratulations to the happy couple!

We cannot tell you how much we loved working with Peta to design her wedding to her dream man, Dave. In just a few weeks, she pulled together her vision of her luxury wedding and asked us to help execute her ideas. Talk about wow!
The ceremony was held on the wedding lawn of the City Botanic Gardens, we set the scene with our white decor and Bouquet Boutique completed the picture with their stunning fresh floral bouquets for our gold urns and white podiums. Small matching posies were tied on each aisle chair too. A sweet personalised mirror completed the scene.
Now let’s talk about this reception room – wow, wow, wow!
We went to town, ceiling installation with our gold central chandelier. Two long guest tables adorned with rosette linens and a host of gold floral stands, candleabras, votives, floating candles, charger plates, gold cutlery, personalised acrylic guest names, gold tiffany chairs and more. As stylists, these weddings make our heart flutter and skip a beat. we finishe off the room with bridal table styling, a fairylight backdrop and podiums with florals around the sides of the room.
This couple were a delight to work with and style for. Thank you Peta & Dave!
