We design unforgettable weddings and events across Australia, creating moments passed down generations
The ones you tell your children about. The ones your friends commit to memory for when their time to shine comes around. The ones that make you smile years after they’ve drawn to a close. At LUKdesign Weddings, we believe a truly unforgettable celebration is more than beautiful—it’s personal, intentional, and deeply felt. Whether it’s the start of something new or the celebration of a life well-lived, we take the time to learn your story so we can weave it into every thoughtful detail. With seamless planning, heartfelt styling, and expert execution, we’re here to make sure your next chapter begins with a moment worth remembering.
LUKdesign Weddings creates experiences that evoke a sense of awe—where practicality meets artistry in perfect balance. Led by creative director Luke Kolbas-Williams, a seasoned wedding planner and stylist with hundreds of celebrations to his name, we bring calm confidence, inspired ideas, and unwavering support to every wedding. Equal parts master planner, personal stylist, problem solver and confidant, Luke is known for creating celebrations that honour emotion, embrace elegance, and capture the magic of the moment.
With an intuitive eye for detail and a handpicked team of experts behind the scenes, your day will flow as effortlessly as the champagne. From the quietest touches to the grandest gestures, every element is carefully considered so you can be the kind of bride or groom who laughs freely in photos, eats the cake, and dances into the night.

This is how we do it at LUKdesign Weddings
1. The First Spark: Discovery & Deep Connection
What Happens:
You inquire via our website or social media.
You’re met with an elevated, warm, and reassuring first impression to book your Complimentary Consultation Call.
We have a complimentary discovery call—not just a chat, but a connection. I uncover your love story, vision, energy, and needs.
The LUKdesign Magic:
We don’t just plan your wedding—we decode your essence and translate it into an experience.
As the client you FEEL: Seen. Safe. Excited. Aligned.
2. The Creative Collab: Visioning & Design
What Happens:
Once onboarded, you receive a luxe Welcome Pack outlining what’s next, your planning roadmap, budget tracker and styling questionnaire.
I host a Vision & Vibe Workshop (call or in-person) to co-create the dream.
My team begins curating a tailored moodboard and event blueprint—not cookie-cutter Pinterest clones, but your own creative direction infused with your story.
LUKdesign Magic:
We marry beauty with practicality. Our styling is emotional, intentional, and always one step ahead of trends.
As the client you FEEL: Understood. Inspired. Elevated.
3. The Blueprint Phase: Planning & Precision
What Happens:
The logistics engine kicks in: timelines, vendor curation, budgeting, run sheets, meetings—all handled by experts.
I become your trusted advisor and lead problem-solver, managing suppliers, schedules, and expectations.
You’re kept informed but never overwhelmed, thanks to clear communication and thoughtful touchpoints.
LUKdesign Magic:
You’ll feel like the guest of honour, not the project manager.
As the client you FEEL: Calm. Confident. Supported.
4. The Unfolding: Wedding Month & Event Day Execution
What Happens:
Final check-ins, styling confirmations, team briefs, and vendor comms are handled with poise.
On the day? My team is everywhere and invisible all at once—directing, adjusting, styling, soothing.
Guests are wowed. The couple is glowing. The flow is effortless.
LUKdesign Magic:
I choreograph magic in motion. It’s not just about what you see—it’s how you feel.
As the client you FEEL: Bliss. Awe. Pure presence.
5. The Legacy: Reflection & Celebration
What Happens:
After the event, you receive a warm thank you, final gallery tips, testimonials request, and a beautifully crafted keepsake or parting gift.
I follow up with an impact report: the moments, the wins, the costs saved, the compliments received.
I invite you into my extended LUKdesign family—referrals, anniversary styling, or future event offerings.
LUKdesign Magic:
We’re not just part of your day—we’re part of your story.
As the client you FEEL: Grateful. Connected. Loyal.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I don't want a traditional wedding? +
With LUK, it's not about what's been done before - it's about you, your dreams & your big event. We're not about fitting your day into our cookie-cutter grab bag of past events, it's about using our expertise in execution to craft an experience that is as unique as you. (And if someone is making a little too much noise about the way you want things done, just point them in our direction - we'll take care of that too.)
What if my event location is a little unusual? +
Unusual locations can be challenging - and exciting! The fundamental principle of your event is sticking to your non-negotiables, and developing smart alternatives for everything that surrounds them. If it's your dream to be married in the treetops of The Daintree Rainforest - let's rope up! But if your dream is to have your 100+ year old grandmother see you walk down the isle, I'm sure we can come up with a beautifully leafy alternative. It's just about ranking all the contributing factors in order of importance, which is a process we guide you through along the way.
What if I don't have a massive budget? +
Don't confuse our love of lavish for a minimum pricetag that is sky-high. Ultimately, we're here for YOU & your event - if your budget is a key factor, then it gets front-and-centre focus in the exact same way as if you had requested we source a unicorn (and for the record, a unicorn is not out of reach.)
I have a specific 'look' I'm after... +
Part of our initial process is developing mood boards with you, after asking a series of detailed questions about your dreams & ideas for the execution of your event. By introducing mood boards early in the process, we use these as a benchmark for all viusal decisions made thereafter, kind of like a visual rulebook for your event.
What if I have ZERO idea what I want? +
Whether you've got a Pinterest board a mile long, or a completely blank slate, everyone has one wish in common - to create a unique memory that will last a lifetime. Our interview process is designed to help us draw these decisions out of you - often before you realised you've made them - as well as give us a sense of who you are, so we can create an experience that is truly a celebration of you.
