High school sweethearts Hannah and Nick decided to ring in the holidays and celebrate new beginnings with an Australian New Year’s Eve wedding. Using a neutral color palette, lush floral arrangements, and vintage touches—the couple brought to life a celebration overflowing with personality and excitement on the biggest night of the year, surrounded by their closest family and friends.
The pair transformed Hyde Park into a romantic setting for their big day with white Hercules chairs and a white aisle runner leading up to the breathtaking florals and pampas on pillar columns. And under a canopy of trees, the couple exchanged sweet vows at their favorite park. Following the ceremony, they brought the garden vibe into their elegant Moana Hall reception with an eye-catching overgrown floral installation and a dramatic tablescape filled with artful blooms in mismatched ceramic vases, tall tapered candles, and sculptural busts. These elements beautifully blended with the venue’s dramatic vaulted ceilings, distressed white walls, and arched windows.
From the yellow vintage bridal car down to the Daft Punk cover band that kept the party going all night, Hannah and Nick’s big day was spectacular and unforgettable from beginning to end. Scroll through these stunning images to see all the perks of a holiday wedding. All the romance and energy captured by S. Rose Photo might just convince you to say “I do” on New Year’s Eve.

Personalizing The Ceremony By Having Mom Walk The Bride Down The Aisle, Writing Their Own Vows, And Adding Humor
I walked down the aisle with my mum. Seeing all our gorgeous family and friends looking amazing and smiling at us was incredible. We also wrote our vows. Our celebrant asked our guests to put their hands up and vow to drink too much and party. It was fun, and everyone laughed, setting the night’s mood.
The Venues They Chose For Their Australian New Year’s Eve Wedding Were Meaningful To Them
We chose our local park for the ceremony as it’s a charming park and we spend a lot of time there. For the reception, we chose Moana Hall, where we had our 30th birthdays, and the style helped set a theme and mood for the wedding.
