結婚是一件人生很重要的里程碑，華人的習俗一定是要擺桌請客，富貴奢華的氣勢一定不能少，因為對於華人來說，婚禮代表的是兩家子的面子。但隨著時代的進步，加上年輕人的預算可能有限，能夠展現自己個性的婚禮，又能節省開銷才是最重要的事，畢竟婚禮只是一天，但是接下來的日子才是重頭戲，能夠將預算拿來付房屋頭期款，或是改造居家設計，甚至去一趟蜜月旅行，似乎比較實際。

Think a "green wedding" is too much leg work? Think again.

Relaxed, Colourful, Homemade, Natural, Simple, Tasmanian. That pretty much describes this wedding in a nutshell!

Kat & Michael decided to get ready in 2 different rooms but in the same house. This private time before the ceremony was so special. Seeing each other for the first time, before anyone saw them. They got the chance to see the look and the emotion on each others face. To them it was so calming and meant they could spend as much time with their guests as possible after the ceremony. These guys really love the natural beauty of the area in which they chose to tie the knot. Especially the waterhole at the ceremony, walking up there after the ceremony was so dreamy.

They pretty much did EVERYTHING themselves. They spent months and months creating pieces that would not only look perfect but meant something to them. Such as the arbour, dried rose confetti, tables, signs, kokodema balls, homebrew (which was AMAZING) and their wedding cake & grazing table. (Yeah, these two are good)

They just really were about having it as organic as possible, and just leaving the natural beauty of the surrounds to speak for itself. A lot of their guests travelled interstate to Tassie for the first time so it was a really special reunion as well as their farewell to Tasmania.

澳洲的攝影師Michael Malone 與妻子Kat Kleu花了好幾個月的時間收集和裝飾，將婚禮以最符合自己個性的方式呈現。所有在婚禮上所看到的任何裝飾物，撒花，甚至婚禮蛋糕和啤酒都是自己親手製做的，儀式中的椅子也都是收集廢棄物而來的，加上用酒桶當成的桌子以及牧草做成的椅子，都讓人覺得格外有特色且驚艷。他們認為取之於大地，更應該要用善加利用周遭的資源，以最不浪費且環保的方式，打造一個溫馨且浪漫的婚禮。
