Considering a country wedding? Maybe looking to the hinterland for your dream day? Well, here’s a little reminder of why so many couples get misty-eyed (and guests go gaga) over the rolling hills of Maleny.
Sitting pretty in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, this mountaintop gem is an absolute dream for those planning a country or hinterland wedding in Queensland. And this styled shoot, created by some of the region’s finest, delivers the kind of magic you can expect from a Maleny wedding.
Think romantic vibes, buttery light, and Glass House Mountain vistas.

Glorious hinterland venue The Old Dairy set the tone with its manicured grounds and scene-stealing views while a handcrafted Sperry Tent offered a classic break-out space to complement the property’s cute-as-a-button Bell Tower.
Simply Style Co. finessed the mood, cleverly incorporating a swathe of softly-softly curved accents and creating a warm blend of candles, fabrics, and décor for the intimate reception table. If you’re searching for wedding stationery and signage ideas, zoom in on the scalloped lilac beauties from Blue Bird Invitations — the playful wording is perfect for bringing a sense of fun to any soirée.
And that dreamy floral installation? It comes courtesy of Willow Bud Flowers, who brought in armfuls of fresh blooms and crafted a floating focal point for The Old Dairy’s elegant, light-filled Grand Barn.
And, of course, a gorgeous celebration needs the gowns to match. Noosa-based bridal designer Erin Clare Bridal played up the mood with dreamy fabrics and whimsical details for model Amber, complemented by beautiful hair and makeup from Evalyn Parson Weddings and Lauren Montgomery.
Sunshine Coast-based photographer Jennifer Oliphant framed the day in style and had our team making plans for their next escape to the country.
