And just like that, another wedding fair has passed… and what a year it was!
On Sunday the 7th February, we celebrated our 9th annual Byron Bay Wedding Fair with warm weather and beautiful clear skies.
Despite the ever-changing Covid uncertainty, the 2021 turnout was one of our best yet! A showcase of over 70 amazing suppliers across 16 wedding venues, it was lovely to meet so many couples from all across Australia. We were very fortunate the state borders opened up just in time!
After the whirlwind that was 2020, the day was truly refreshing and a rejuvenating celebration of our local wedding industry. It was incredible to see so many happy faces!
A key highlight this year was Fig Tree Restaurant re-opening its doors 15 months after the devastating fire in 2019. Other highlights included all the awe-inspiring styling displays by The Wedding Shed and the region’s talented florists. Keep scrolling below for some serious inspo!
We’d like to give a big thanks to the wonderful suppliers and venues involved, and to all who attended! We hope this gave you the opportunity to experience how magical the Byron Bay region is to get married and what goes into making your day so special.
