A boutique vineyard, The Overflow Estate 1895 is located in the Scenic Rim, on the edge of Lake Wyaralong. What began as an affair of the heart for the Morgan family, is now Queensland’s newest boutique wedding venue. Purpose built for special events, the rolling vines and scenery are breathtaking!

The Overflow Estate 1895, promises a ceremony site and reception venue with limitless photo opportunities. From the moment you and your guests drive through the front gates, you will feel at home in the stunning historic Estate.

As you discover more about our vineyard and venue, of which we are immensely proud, we hope you fall in love with our wines and the Estate as much as we have – David Morgan, Owner.

The Inspiration

Architecturally designed with an appreciation that reflects the surrounding landscape. Our mission was to showcase The Overflow Estate in its natural form and beauty.

Inspired by a timeless sophistication, Ikebana was our influence for this styled shoot. Creating an effortless flow, with a ‘less is more’ wedding style paired with a moody palette for the cool season. Natural elements of wood and stone, added texture reflecting the structures exterior. While smokey black hues with rich burgundy and chocolate adding a hint of colour through the floral arrangements. The style brief was simple, think ‘Chanel in Tokyo’.

Dried wakame in stone pinch bowls, with wooden handled cutlery and sheer napkins draped over stone plates. With floor draping oatmeal linen table coverings, showcasing the unique pattern in the venues chairs. The menus were cut on an angle to reflect the lines of the form structure ceiling, with the addition of black delicate lights creating an ambient glow above. Not one, but two wedding cakes! One embracing the effortless flow while another inspired by textural design of stone.

A deceptively simple design gown accentuated our models curves, creating an amazing silhouette. The neckline was clean and plunging. Modern and elegant. A fringed chiffon scarf which secures at the empire waist, elegantly draping at the front. Paired with a handmade, beautifully simple and sheer poncho in georgette, adding a sweeping train.

Needless to say, our creative team nailed the brief ever so effortlessly.

Dream Team

An incredible film was produced by Luke Bickley Studios. We hope you enjoy the feature as much as we enjoyed creating the magic!

Inspired by design, movement and history.

The Overflow Estate 1895 is a historic grazing property and has been purpose built for special events. It is set on a gorgeous island in the magnificent Lake Wyaralong, easily accessible by air, land or water, and only 60 minutes at most from Brisbane or the Gold Coast. The tasting room is well equipped and the dining deck opens out onto manicured lawns and gardens. There is a seamless transition into the vineyard and onto the splendid waterway.

Welcome to SRB | Styled Shoot Scenic Rim

Oct 13, 2018

Welcome to the start of our journey at Scenic Rim Bride!

Possibly one of my favourite styled shoots yet. Featuring a gown by renowned Australian designer Karen Willis Holmes, starring real life Bride and Groom to Be, Eden Maree and Bryce Retzlaff captured by Feather & Finch Photography.

A select number of wedding vendors we know and trust, were each invited to contribute to our vision of creating a country luxe wedding scene. Summer Land Camels was the venue of choice due to it’s location and of course the opportunity to guest star a camel, or two! Summer Land Camels is located in a town called Harrisville which is only a one hour drive from Brisbane and the Gold Coast. With over 600 camels onsite it’s little wonder Summer Land Camels is Australia’s largest camel dairy.

Behind the scenes, our team delighted in artisanal products and produce, from camel milk cheese to gelatos and camelccino’s! Yes, camelccinos is a thing and we loved it! We had the opportunity to meet camel wranglers and learn the nature of humanity’s most trusted and ancient animal companions. Strong, stable, gentle, intelligent beauties with personalities to fall in love with. One camel in particular, Evie won our hearts!

It certainly was a memorable day for all involved. I would personally like to thank Summer Land Camels for their warm welcome, genuine hospitality and allowing our team the use of their wonderful homestead and of course, for trusting my vision.

Personalised wedding management and style direction planned and produced by Scenic Rim Bride to reflect your personal wedding style.

From finding the perfect venue to creating a design brief to suit your personal style and budget and much more!
