A selection of recent Sydney weddings, each one designed around the couple and the room.

White, green and soft cream. A suspended ceiling installation over the long reception table, twin outdoor pedestals at golden hour, and a bouquet of white roses and lisianthus.

Vivid purple and blue. Vanda orchids, magenta phalaenopsis, blue hydrangea and dark cosmos. A statement bouquet for a country wedding.

A cascade of pink baby's breath and white hydrangea spilling from the signing table, with a mixed-palette bridal party in coral, magenta and yellow.

Native foliage and white roses on a ceremony arch set in the bush. Earthy chocolate bridesmaid silks. Quiet, considered, native to the place.

A moody table arrangement of burgundy anthurium, smoke bush, dark dahlias and white hydrangea, set against travertine, candlelight and clusters of black grapes.

Three fluted white pedestals beneath an old gum, dressed with blush roses, smoke bush and amaranth. Pink and burgundy garden palette, no faces in the frame.
