I love Australian weddings. I love the spirit, the passion and the love that we evoke into each and every celebration. But on this Australia Day, I thought it would be fun to ask some of my wedding blogger friends what they adore about Australian celebrations.

With bloggers from all over the world - South Africa, the UK, the USA, and our close friends New Zealand, and even some Australians in the mix (including the patterned people!), I thought there was no better way to give a nod to the beauty of Australian celebrations.

"There are so many things I love about Australian weddings it is hard to know where to even begin. Apart from the Proteas, which Gaby rightly bagged before I could, there's the crazily creative ceremony spaces..."

"...there's the fact that you genuinely get the sense that each one is just the most awesome celebration, filled with fun, laughter and love;"

"...and that they absolutely reflect the love and the style of the happy couple..."

"...There's the inimitable Aussie photography (in a world awash with Fine Art I love seeing the deep, rich colours they capture)..."

"There are three things I love about Aussie weddings - the relaxed vibe, stunning landscapes and sense of community that comes about from the wedding planning.

"I love that elegantly cool vibe Australian weddings always seem to have" Sarah Darcy of Classic Bride

"I love that Australian weddings march to the beat of their own drum!! Designers are not afraid to explore boundaries and push limits compared to their American and European counterparts in my opinion.

"There is always a huge emphasis on style and fun in every Australian wedding I've featured and I love how Aussie couples always make sure that their guests have such a darn good time !..."
