Wedded Wonderland founder Wendy El-Khoury went on SBS News to talk about why Australia is more than just adventure, animals, and accents. As a veteran in the wedding industry, she can attest that if you’re tying the knot in the country, everyone will gather around to hear about it.
See It To Believe It
Pre-wedding stress? That’s normal. But post-wedding silence? When nobody talks about it unless you bring it up? That’s the heartbreak no one prepares you for.
Enter the latest phase of Tourism Australia’s global campaign: “Come and Say G’Day.” Backed by a staggering $130 million investment, the campaign invites travelers specifically from the US, UK, China, India, and Japan to rediscover Australia’s one-of-a-kind experiences. After all, Australia isn’t just the land “down unduh”, it’s the land where core memories are made, and weddings become the kind of stories that sound almost too good to be true.
From Engaged to Engagement-Worthy
Wedded Wonderland founder Wendy El-Khoury appeared on SBS News to highlight how destination weddings in Australia are levelling up, from homegrown creative talents to under-the-radar hotels and venues.
“I also believe that there is a lot of modern Australia that is missing and I'd like to see a new narrative play out too for hospitality. And tourism and retail, all of these small business sectors that really struggle during COVID, they still need a big boost from tourism.” - Wendy El-Khoury

A wedding in Australia isn’t just “pretty.” It’s the kind of moment that stops the scroll, makes strangers deep-dive your feed, and gets them hitting up your DMs for exact details.
