If there's one life lesson to takeaway from Erin and Bree's Gold Coast wedding at The Acre, it's this: invest in good wedding vendors!

Perhaps that's an obvious point to emphasise, but when couples are looking at ways to save money at their wedding, it's easy to forget the positive impact professional wedding vendors can have in shaping how their wedding day looks and feels. 

Our advice? Identify your wedding priorities and allocate your wedding budget to those things. For Erin and Bree, that was an all-inclusive venue where they could bring their outdoor, cocktail-style "bohemian fiesta" to life, provide their guests with delicious food and drinks and have their first look, ceremony and reception in one place.

When asked about their wedding venue and why they chose The Acre, they said "The staff at the venue were exceptional, ensuring a smooth and memorable experience. The package included delicious food and beverages, adding to the enjoyment of the celebration. The highlight was the opportunity to have an outdoor cocktail-style wedding, allowing up to 150 guests to revel in the festivities. 

The convenience of having both the ceremony and reception in one designated area allowed guests to seamlessly transition from the ceremony to the reception without any interruptions. It ensured a continuous flow of drinks, food, and festivities throughout the night. 

The remarkable staff went above and beyond to cater to the guests, ensuring everyone was well-fed and their glasses were continuously filled throughout the evening. It guaranteed a night of uninterrupted celebration and enjoyment for all of our guests! 

It was an incredible celebration with plenty of inspo for anyone needing some ideas for their own upcoming wedding (we particularly love how they walked down the aisle together with their dads). Beautifully captured by Chamore Creations, scroll down to see it in full below.
