West Aussie Wedding

honeymoon postcards

I know- honeymoon photos are the worst. 

Who gives a shit about your holiday!? 

We want wedding pictures dammit! 

But these are all I've got right now. 

We were on the road for 6 weeks in the USA. 

Here are a random assortment of our photos

I emailed our wedding photographer this morning to see when we can expect the wedding photos... Will let you know!

stay tuned

Tomorrow morning we leave on our honeymoon.. Seven weeks road tripping in the USA!

Very excited as neither of us have been to the US mainland before and there are so many places we want to check out.

Our focus has been almost completely on the wedding and as a result we have absolutely no plan or itinerary for our trip. Sweet.

Not sure how much internet access we'll be having (or wanting), so posting might be light on. Or it might not. But either way I have prepared a few scheduled posts to keep WestAussieWedding warm while I am away..

I have got some stuff that I still want to show you, but thought it better wait until after the wedding... like venue details and invites etc.

And I still have some cool pictures in my wedding inspiration folder that haven't yet made it onto the blog.. and they are too good to just ditch without sharing, so I will post some of those in the hope that they inspire some ideas for others..  

Hopefully by the time we get back from our honeymoon there will be some professional wedding photos to share!

So pretty please stay tuned!

PS. No sorry you didn't know about the Living Statue. I forgot to tell anyone.. including the photographers, the Caterer or the Mister.. I think they all thought she was the most random gatecrasher

no daylight savings

So yes the rest of the country has put their clocks forward, but not Perth this year. boo.

Oh well! This hotel room reminds me that more night sky doesn't have to be a bad thing!

I would love to sleep here every night! What sweet dreams I'd have!

This is by far my favourite room at Hotel du Petit Moulin, the Parisian hotel decorated by Christian Larcoix. 

It's that outer space painting I love it!

I'd love to have some artwork like that hung above our bed.

It's like a grown up version of glow in the dark stars. Awesome

Bush Honeymoon

How is this for a designer bush retreat?

On an isolated property in the Central NSW.. accessible only by horseback, no electricity, collecting water from a raintank.. Its like a permament tent..

Its only small 3X3m and the corrugated sides open up to reveal a timber interior and act as a veranda during the day, close to keep the place insulated during the night

Looks like a very peaceful getaway, if nature is your thing!

too cool for the pool

These are the most rocking togs I've seen in a while..
