Nestled among the rolling hills of the Hunter Valley, Abbey and Ryan celebrated their love in a wedding that perfectly captured the essence of winter romance. The couple chose the historic Ben Ean Estate as their venue, a location known for its stunning views and rich heritage, making it the ideal backdrop for their special day.
Luscious Florals in Berry and Blush
Florals played a central role in creating the moody, yet elegant atmosphere that Abbey and Ryan envisioned. The floral design was a feast for the senses, with lush, textural arrangements in rich berry and soft blush tones. The combination of these colours added depth and warmth to the wintery landscape, creating a romantic and intimate setting.
The ceremony was framed by stunning Flower Pillars and Aisle Gardens, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the estate's rolling hills. The floral pillars, bursting with seasonal blooms, created a striking focal point, while the aisle gardens added a touch of whimsy and enchantment. The overall effect was one of natural beauty, seamlessly blending with the surrounding landscape.
A Picture-Perfect Day
Capturing the magic of the day was photographer Luke Fletcher, who expertly documented every moment, from the intimate ceremony to the lively reception. His keen eye for detail and ability to capture the emotion of the day ensured that Abbey and Ryan have a beautiful collection of memories to cherish for years to come.
Elegant Bridal Party
Abbey and her bridesmaids looked effortlessly chic in their Champagne-colored dresses, which complemented the wedding’s color palette beautifully. The soft, shimmering tones of their gowns added a touch of elegance and sophistication to the bridal party, while still maintaining a sense of warmth and softness.
Ryan, the groom, made a statement in his deep olive green checked suit, which added a unique and stylish twist to the traditional groom's attire. His groomsmen, dressed in beige suits, provided the perfect contrast, creating a cohesive yet distinctive look for the bridal party.
Deliciously Moody Winter Wedding Styling
The styling of the wedding was nothing short of exquisite. With a focus on creating a cozy, yet sophisticated ambiance, the décor featured an abundance of candles, fruit, and flowers. The candlelight cast a warm glow over the tables, illuminating the rich tones of the floral arrangements and the deep, jewel-coloured fruits that adorned each setting. A special mention to Love Glows Letters and Lights for the spectacular instillation of fairy lights and LOVE letters.
The tables were dressed in a palette that complemented the florals, with rich textures and moody hues creating a luxurious and inviting atmosphere. The combination of natural elements and elegant details made for a setting that was both opulent and welcoming, perfectly reflecting Abbey and Ryan’s style.
Abbey and Ryan’s winter wedding at Ben Ean Estate was a true celebration of love, style, and the beauty of the Hunter Valley.
