Hi everyone, I'm new around here

I'm just wondering, does anyone know of an LJ community specifically for Australian weddings? I've searched and can't find one. All the wedding communities like this one are great, but it's hard when so many of the people are talking about American shops that we don't have, and American dollars, I'm just hoping to find something more relevant for some of those details. If there's not one, does anyone think I should start one?
