A Vintage-Inspired Wedding Editorial at Wallalong House
Photographed by Brooke Arte Studio
Set within the historic walls of Wallalong House, this styled shoot is a celebration of artistry, heritage, and modern romance. Captured by Brooke Arte Studio, the editorial draws on the venue’s striking Georgian and Victorian features, from its sweeping verandahs with wrought iron columns to the centuries-old fig trees that frame the property. It’s a destination that blends architectural grandeur with the natural beauty of the Hunter Valley—an unforgettable setting for couples searching for timeless Australian wedding venues.
“I’d love to share with you this recent shoot, that features beautiful styling details with a sustainable edge,” shares photographer Brooke Arte Studio. The creative vision, brought together by Lovers Lane Weddings and Events, centered around thoughtful details and textural contrasts, highlighting the harmony between vintage character and contemporary minimalism. From bold draping installations to delicate florals, the result was a space that felt both intimate and expansive, refined yet creative.
Florals by The Naked Florist became a quiet yet powerful thread throughout the shoot. “We loved being able to celebrate minimalism and delicacy throughout our floral designs,” the team notes. Muted rose and dusky pink tones softened the atmosphere, while sculptural shapes and sustainable choices added a modern, conscious dimension. Against the venue’s grand architecture, these details felt effortlessly at home, offering inspiration for couples who value both artistry and responsibility.
Fashion played a central role in the narrative, featuring two bridal looks by Moira Hughes Couture. “The gowns were a stunning tribute to beauty and femininity,” the photographer shares. A sculptural off-the-shoulder silhouette gave way to a contemporary short dress with playful volume, highlighting the versatility of bridal style today. Paired with tailored suiting from Rundlet Tailoring, the looks balanced femininity with masculinity, creating a visual dialogue that was both striking and harmonious.
This styled shoot at Wallalong House is a reminder of the possibilities when history and creativity meet.
