Portsea Polo 2020

While I do not profess to understand the rules of polo, the atmosphere at the Portsea Polo is always great. Also, I can think of worse places than the Mornington Peninsula for a weekend getaway. Unsurprisingly, it was an incredibly fun day at the 2020 Portsea Polo. The day’s activities included eating, drinking and being […]

My Tropical Queensland Wedding

I’ve been holding out on sharing my wedding photos because I was waiting on a couple of publications to print it first (shameless). Now that day has come and I am excited to share my wedding gallery!  I won’t go into too much detail about the day as the blog on Polkadot Bride and article in the Queensland […]

Bridal Shower

After months of wedding planning, I can hardly believe that my bridal shower came around so quickly! We started the day with a beautiful brunch at Lucky Penny in South Yarra.

This year I attended the Camilla and Marc Grand Showcase. Held in the magnificent Royal Exhibition Building and showing both daywear and eveningwear, the show was a true fashion theatre experience.

Portsea Polo Bachelorette Party

A weekend away is never a bad thing, so I was more than happy when my sister, Candice, confirmed her Bachelorette Party would be held at the Portsea Polo. While I barely understand the rules of the game (and I tend to think most people attending the Polo aren’t across the rules), the Polo atmosphere […]

Feeling lucky at the Melbourne Cup

The Melbourne Cup Carnival is one of those standout dates on the Melbourne events calendar. For some it’s a day to take a punt, others love to watch the magnificent horses, and of course some Melbournians are just grateful for the public holiday! I don’t take for granted how lucky I’ve been over the last […]
