That’s what this post is all about – getting married in Brisbane, Australia, and some of the things you might need to consider beforehand. In this post, we are going to touch on three key elements that every wedding will need. These are things like the ring. Pretty clear that is a must have item. Then there is a wedding dress. Don’t get married without one. And how are you going to get to the wedding? Catch a bus? We don’t think that’s a very good idea so we’d also like to talk about wedding cars and how to choose a good one. There – so that’s the basic idea. Getting married. Wonder who first thought that one up. Whoever it was has created a pretty much ongoing trend of going over the top to provide the best wedding experience possible. Well, okay, so not every wedding subscribes to that idea. And just as well too. First to the wedding ring. There are several different schools of thought on wedding rings. Many people like as big and bold and glamorous a wedding ring as poss...
When we think of a wedding ceremony, many people think of the classic and timeless image of a church wedding, bride wearing a gorgeous white wedding dress with flowing train. She is attended by her bridesmaids, flower girls and other attendees. She makes her entrance into the church where the ceremony is to be held, groom waiting at the altar.

While its true that many people still opt for this style of wedding, its also completely fair to say that today there are many different styles of wedding and marriage ceremonies. And they don’t always involve formal situations or in truth, Priests. This post is about some of the many different styles a modern wedding can take, and the different types of officiant available. It’s set in Queensland, so h...
Waste is an unusual thing to blog about. Unusual because it’s not something many people often discuss. Sure, we talk about sustainability, and recycling but the very word waste conjures up unpleasant connotations. Images of grime and dirt, something no one wants, so it is thrown away into a bin, put in a big noisy smelly truck in the middle of the night and put in a hole in the middle of nowhere while no one is watching. Then covered up, out of site, out of mind. That is how we humans have handled waste, at least for the last fifty years or so. We could have been doing things differently. It is absolutely fairy to say that we should be doing things very differently. Here is what I mean. True sustainability relies on using only what we need, so there are not many byproducts – or waste – left over. And even those leftover parts have uses in many cases. A good example today is restaurant food waste. Our portion sizes are huge, by historic standards. And so leftover food gets ...
