LEAH
and
RYAN
For Australian bridal designer Leah Da Gloria and actor Ryan Johnson, their wedding was an expression of timeless romance, artistry and understated grandeur. Set against the historic backdrop of Anambah House in the Hunter Valley, the celebration drew inspiration from Gothic fairy tales and old-world European elegance, with rambling florals, rich textures and candlelit table-scapes creating a world that felt both nostalgic and extraordinary. Their beautifully considered wedding was later featured in Vogue Australia.
THE
VISION
Inspired by a shared love of glamour and gothic fairytale romance, Leah and Ryan envisioned a celebration that balanced timeless elegance with unexpected, eclectic details. From the garden ceremony framed by abundant florals to the richly layered reception, every element was thoughtfully considered to feel both beautiful and deeply personal. Our role was to bring this creative vision to life, overseeing the coordination, styling and seamless flow of the day, allowing Leah and Ryan to be fully immersed in a celebration that felt unmistakably their own.

The design embraced a romantic interplay of countryside glamour and gothic elegance, drawing inspiration from the historic character of Anambah House and the richness of the autumn season. A palette of deep crimson, apple green and crisp white set the tone, while abundant garden-inspired florals, unexpected foliage and richly layered tablescapes brought a sense of whimsy and individuality to the celebration. The result was a celebration that balanced timeless romance with an unexpected creative edge, beautifully reflective of Leah and Ryan's personalities.
