"The emphasis of the campaign is about Port Douglas as a great location to come get married or engaged here then, all businesses will get the flow on effects."

Mr Bawden explained that the campaign is designed to make visitors fall in love with the Port Douglas region.

"We want to bring people back and reignite those thoughts I think it's a romantic little place."
