About Original Wedding

Our Story

Original Wedding was born from a genuine passion for helping couples navigate the exciting yet often overwhelming journey of wedding planning. What started as a personal project to document wedding tips and product discoveries has grown into a trusted resource for Australian couples seeking honest, practical guidance for their special day.

Our team has collectively attended over 50 weddings across Australia, from intimate beach ceremonies on the Gold Coast to grand ballroom celebrations in Melbourne. We've seen firsthand what works, what doesn't, and what truly makes a wedding memorable. This real-world experience, combined with countless hours of research, product testing, and industry connections, forms the foundation of every piece of advice we share.

We understand that planning a wedding involves navigating complex decisions about venues, styling, vendors, budgets, and countless details that can feel overwhelming. That's why we focus on providing clear, actionable guidance rather than generic advice. Whether you're trying to understand the difference between cathedral and fingertip veils, comparing artificial flower quality, or figuring out how to allocate your decoration budget, we've done the research so you don't have to.

What Makes Us Different

Unlike many wedding websites, we don't simply aggregate information from other sources. Our team personally researches each topic we cover, drawing on direct experience with Australian wedding traditions, venues, and suppliers. We understand the unique considerations of planning a wedding in Australia, from managing unpredictable summer heat to incorporating native flora like proteas and eucalyptus into your styling.

When we recommend products, we consider factors specific to Australian couples: shipping reliability, heat tolerance for outdoor weddings, pricing in Australian dollars, and availability from trusted retailers. We only recommend products we would use ourselves or that have received consistently positive feedback from the Australian wedding community.

Our Commitment to You

We believe every couple deserves access to quality wedding planning resources, regardless of their budget or experience. Our guides are written to be practical and inclusive, offering options for intimate backyard ceremonies and grand venue celebrations alike. We're transparent about our affiliate relationships and never let them influence our recommendations. If a product isn't up to standard, we simply won't feature it.

As we continue to grow, our mission remains the same: to be the trusted wedding planning companion for Australian couples, providing the honest advice and thoughtful product curation you need to create a celebration that truly reflects your love story.
