Sunshine on a rainy Port Douglas wedding day

Melbourne bride Danielle still radiated sunshine despite the disappointing wet weather during her recent Port Douglas nuptials.

Danielle's bridesmaid carried a posy of white roses and white Singapore orchids.

Using parsley as wedding bouquet foliage

Yes it sounds rather strange: using parsley as foliage for your wedding bouquet. But the bright leaves add a splash of color and unique texture. The idea is nothing new; brides in ancient Greece often carried a mix of herbs and blossoms designed with specific meanings and intentions, and modern-day brides like Dee from Sydney are rediscovering the beauty, significance and durability of herbs in their wedding arrangements.

The bridesmaid had a similar arrangement, minus the orchids.

And vibrant yellow gerberas with parsley foliage for the flower girl.

Using white ginger in a wedding bouquet

White ginger (Hedychium coronarium) is a perennial plant native to countries in the southern Asian region such as Nepal, eastern India, Vietnam and Indonesia. The delicate white flowers are extremely fragrant and look stunning in a tropical bouquet.

AFL footballers love Port Douglas, too!

Did a bit of star spotting recently – a well known Geelong footballer chose Port Douglas for his nuptials…
