Dreaming of starting the next exciting chapter together at a place that feels special to you.

Perhaps your forever home, a family property you grew up on or you simply dream of a weekend escape to a stunning property where you can just arrive and let every detail be taken care of for you.

Somewhere where curfews are much more relaxed and the flexibility to plan your day exactly how you envision it to be.

A day filled with moments to spend with family and friends, enjoy incredible food and a beautifully styled atmosphere without feeling like you have to track time or be in three places at once (that’s our job!)
Almost like the honeymoon came early.

Our Private Property service has been designed to cater for just that.

An end-to-end experience that is in collaboration with you throughout your entire planning journey.
And when it comes to the day itself, we take the reins so you can step in to full wedding-mode and enjoy every special moment.

Transforming farm paddocks, gorgeous gardens and cliff tops.
Allow us to design for you, style it to perfection, meticulously plan the details, create the most stunning florals and then manage, coordinate, set up and pack down while you focus on enjoying life and your love.

  • Guiding you through the process.
    You and your partner will feel at ease planning your incredible property wedding.
    Lauren takes care of all the moving parts for you and brings it all together cohesively. Sourcing the right vendors, scouting the perfect property (if you don’t have one of your own) planning for weather contingencies and presenting you with a comprehensive design guide that feels like we’ve read your mind.
    You bring the inspiration, I’ll bring it to life… and some.

  • A day designed to you.
    Designing a bespoke day doesn’t necessarily mean every single detail completely custom. It does mean, however, a more personalised and considered approach to your styling to make your budget work smarter without compromising on style. Your wedding day should fit you. Not the other way around.
    Lauren has a knack for understanding your vision and not only bringing it to fruition, but beyond what you imagine.

  • Timelines that work for you.
    Lauren, your spreadsheet-loving planner, will skilfully document the precious moments you hope to include in your day and craft your timeline to highlight those details whilst respecting the art of each and every vendor involved. Meaning you don’t have to miss out on cocktail hour, you get the chance to enjoy catching up with your guests and your vendor team can comfortably focus on doing what you’ve hired them to do …putting their best foot forward for you.
    Not so keen on the spotlight being on you all day? I’ll promise to ease those nerves and make you feel right at home, like one of your guests.

  • Clarity and Confidence.
    You’re in the drivers seat of how you want your incredible day to unfold, and together, we create a celebration that feels like you. From the styling, to Run sheets, to floor plans.
    Whilst you have full transparency over your day, you don’t have to have your finger on the pulse at every given stage because you have us. Allowing you to enjoy the things you love doing while your Planner takes care of everything else.
    Allow me to be your sounding board, catch any blindspots and always have a solution in hand.

 
 
 
 

Amongst your favourite people.
Feet are sore, cheeks are hurting, heart is full.
So many moments to smile about, the dance floor electric and waking up the next morning
(perhaps a little dusty) but still on absolute cloud nine.

  • We include the service of sourcing, briefing with specific measurements and property access details to suppliers on your behalf to obtain a quote for you.
    The cost of the marquee is seperate to the styling fee and paid directly to that supplier when we hand over the details to you.
    On going coordination of your marquee/ supplier is handled by us throughout the wedding planning process, though.

  • Some things to consider:

    • Catering tent

    • Rest rooms

    • Garbage disposal

    • Lighting & Generators

    • Cool room/s

    • Car parking & easy vehicle access

    • Insurances

    • Heating/ Cooling

    • Flooring under band

    • Level ground, no underground pipes or cables (dial before you dig is a great resource)

    • Weather contingencies & space to accomodate them

    • Other vendors such as your Caterer, Bar staff, Photographer, Band, Celebrant, Hai and Makeup etc.


    We take you through this step and recommend reputable suppliers in these areas with personalised quotes. Then we manage and coordinate this for you.

  • All of regional Victoria, including:

    • Ballarat

    • Bellarine

    • Bright

  • Yes of course we can. We have properties across regional VIC that we put forward for your consideration. It’s like hiring a property, but with the perks of being a private estate.

  • Absolutely!
    Upon booking with us, we like to have your concept and general plan as comfortable as possible, and based off your inital guest numbers so we can lock in those items for your date.
    If we need to shift the colour palette/ Styling direction we can absolutely revise these details.
    And when it’s nearing time for your RSVPs to come in, we of course update quantities and your floor plan to reflect your final guest numbers, up until 1 month prior to your wedding day.

  • Never fear, we are the ultimate planners so we account for weather contingencies from the get-go.

    We brief marquee suppliers on sizing to accommodate any outdoor elements that need to come indoors if the weather happens to turn. (Which we all know how unpredictable VIC weather ca be!)
    Meaning you won’t have scramble last-minute the week of your wedding and compete with everyone else in the area to score umbrellas or a roof over your heads.
    We’ve got you.

  • I (Lauren) take care of your designs, all planning, I’m there for our meetings together and I’m personally there on the day to coordinate it all for you.

    My fabulous team of Stylists and Coordinators come in on your wedding day with me and bring all of those plans and concepts to life.

    I’m there facilitating all of that with them and jump on the tools, too. I don’t shy away from ironing table cloths, emptying bins, lighting the candles or grabbing a pair of snips and arranging florals (I used to be a fully-fledged florist with a shop and all, did I mention that?)

    With almost 13 years under our belt, your day is in perfect hands with myself and our team.

  • Your payment structure entails a total split of 20%, 20%, 60%.

    To secure your booking with us, a 20% non-refundable deposit is required.

    Followed by a Second instalment of 20% 5 months prior, remaining balance 4 weeks prior.
