See Linh + Shayne's beautiful Half Acre wedding in South Melbourne, featuring a traditional Vietnamese tea ceremony, heartfelt moments and a moody Melbourne wedding celebration.

Some weddings are big. Others are unforgettable for completely different reasons.

This Melbourne wedding with Emilie + Matt wasn't about grand gestures or sticking to tradition. It was about celebrating what mattered most, surrounded by the people who could be there, in one of Melbourne's best neighbourhoods.

A lot of couples feel like they're planning two weddings.The one they actually want, and the one they think they're supposed to have.

The truth is, there are no rules anymore.

There’s a reason people keep coming back to film.

It’s not about nostalgia for the sake of it, it’s about how it feels. If you’ve been drawn to 35mm film wedding photos but can’t quite explain why, this is probably it.

Not every wedding needs chair covers, round tables, and a strict timeline. If you’re planning something that feels a bit more like you — less traditional, more personal — Melbourne has some seriously good options.

These are some of my favourite alternative and non-traditional wedding venues in Melbourne for couples who want something different.
