Also worthy of mentioning is the fact that Gather’s dried wedding flowers can be re-purposed and enjoyed long-term.  Get this. Not only can the bride and groom enjoy their floral creations for their big day but they can, and most importantly, enjoy their wedding flowers for years after the big event.  Imagine being able to use dried flower wedding table centrepieces as a piece of wall art above a bed or in a living room!  A most precious and memorable keepsake for all newly weds from their big day.

Housing the first dried flower bar in Australia, the Gather bricks and mortar store situated at the southern end of the Gold Coast in Currumbin is a sensory packed space where all your dried flower dreams literally do come true.  You can pick out your favourite ingredients and let one of the team do the floral arranging magic for you or of course, you can stay and play and make your very own for a creative and unforgettable day out.   It must also be mentioned that Gather store is located right next door to the ‘fearlessly creative’ Dust Temple cafe and art gallery - a curious industrial space totally worthy of a visit on it’s own accord.  The two spaces are linked by an outdoor green space filled with outdoor patio plants and hanging lantern lights and rustic treasures from yesteryear.
