Perth Wedding Blogs

We're true romantics at heart, and it's our passion for romance that inspired us to create West Coast Weddings - so we can help couples capture the beautiful moments of their Wedding Day and create timeless memories that can be enjoyed forever.

We have experienced first-hand the disappointment of engaging a 'professional photographer' to shoot our own Wedding Day - only to receive photos that underwhelmed us in every possible way and which were quickly hidden away, never to be displayed or looked at again.

Let us help you ensure that you're wedding day is all your hoped for and more captured in style, grace and elegance.

These blogs are designed to help you in your wedding planning journey and provided you with information to help you make the best decisions possible for your Wedding.
