Hello May joined forces with the iconic Park Hyatt Sydney, along with a dream team of wedding creatives, to showcase the hotel’s intimate wedding offering in The Guest House.
It was a wildly beautiful day working alongside some of the best in the biz, and the result is pure magic. From modern curved tablescapes to fresh and lush florals, and that quintessential Sydney view from The Bridal Suite and beyond, this Park Hyatt setting is off-the-charts good! Of course no wedding shoot is complete without a few outfit changes, which came courtesy of our friends at Karen Willis Holmes, Lola Varma, Saving Grace and M.J. Bale with seriously-cool veils and accessories from Dove Grey Bridal and shoes from Bared Footwear.
Be inspired for your own day of days by these incredible images from Stefan Wellsmore.
PARK HYATT SYDNEY
The Park Hyatt Sydney is iconic for a reason – with sweeping harbour and Opera House views, its location is unbeatable. For this shoot, Hello May was tasked with transforming The Guest House and Terrace into a ceremony and reception space that felt equal parts luxurious, modern and effortlessly cool. With the help of some of our favourite wedding vendors, this luxe editorial is proof that you don’t need a sprawling guest list to make a serious impact – just a gorg space, a sharp creative team and the details which make the Hyatt so renowned – exceptional food, seamless service, and a backdrop that quite literally stops people in their tracks.
THE LILLIPILLIAN
The brief was luxe, modern and timeless florals – enter the oh-so-talented Tegan and her team from The Lillipillian who brought the space to life with sculptural arrangements in a fresh-AF palette. Think elegantblooms, tonnes of texture, and just the right amount of drama. Her work perfectly complemented the sleek, architectural backdrop of the Park Hyatt, adding softness without losing that modern edge. Every bouquet and installation was considered, artful, and totally on point… have you seen that ceremony set-up (woah!). Looking for florals that make a statement? The Lillipillian is your go-to. There’s very good reason you’ll find her on the Hello May directory here.
LIV LUNDELIUS MAKEUP
When it comes to effortless bridal beauty, Liv Lundelius is in a league of her own. Known for her skin-first approach, Liv’s signature style is all about enhancing – never masking – your natural glow, which is why we knew she was just the gal for the job when curating this fabulous shoot. From luminous complexions to soft, romantic finishes, she is not only a master at her craft, but she brings a calm, grounded energy (which, trust us, is worth its weight in gold on your wedding day). Brides, if you want to look like you (only glowier) book in Liv now.
RHIANNA SMITH EVENTS
Celebrations which are equal parts polished and personal is what Rhianna Smith Events does best. With her signature blend of calm confidence and razor-sharp style, Rhianna styled every damn detail of this set-up with gorgeous intention – the modern and lush curved tablescape was a total vibe, showcasing The Guest House in its most vibrant light.
SOCO HIRE
Design-forward furniture and decor that elevates the space without overpowering it – that was the brief for SOCO Hire. For this shoot, their carefully curated pieces brought a fresh, contemporary edge to the luxurious setting. Clean lines, muted tones and luxe linens worked in perfect harmony with the florals and styling, helping to transform the Guest House into a chic, intimate celebration space perfect for a party. Oh, and just check out that bar on the Terrace. D.R.E.A.MY!
BLAZE CONNECT
On hand to capture the behind-the-scenes action and all the raw and magic movement of the day was content creator Blaze of Blaze Connect. Candid content delivered within 24 hours of your most special day is what Blaze promises when capturing a wedding alongside the photography team, and she certainly came through with the goods for our day at the Park Hyatt.
