Andrea Klease married her partner Mitchell Armstrong near her hometown in the Scenic Rim on 15th May 2021.
A Jimboomba based florist and local wedding planner formed part of their dream team, with a private property in Lamington as the chosen venue.
Wooden elements and barrels were introduced to this rustic farmhouse wedding for a seamless blend. With country temperatures renowned to drop, blankets were provided to keep guests comfortable. A roaring wood heater was a warm welcome inside the barn, with wooden fire-pits outside creating extra warmth for a Winter wedding.
A canopy of festoon lights above guest tables and dance floor, set the mood.

“Mitch and I wanted to express our gratitude and thank you so much for all your help to make our dream wedding. It was everything and more! From the bottom of our hearts we are truly grateful for you. It was well and truly the best day of our lives and so stress free. I honestly didn’t have one worry, knowing you were all over it. Everything was perfect!” Andrea and Mitch Armstrong
Indulging all the senses with intense romance and sensuality. Basking in the warmth of your love with a country oasis in shades of peaches and cream contrasted with amber and copper. Bare wooden tables, hand blown glassware and a feast of home cooked country flavours creating unforgettable memories inspired by nature.
