Invite Delight!

I love wedding stationery and so I just had to share these gorgeous pics from the latest Invitations For All Occasions designs that were sent to me today. How divine are these...

Wedding Invitation Inspiration: Think chandeliers and crystal to bring a whimsical feel to your wedding invites.

Wedding Invitation Inspiration: Think traditional with a modern twist...for the brides who want to stay traditional yet want to inject a little more contemporary styling to their wedding stationery.  The sinching in at the bow adds a  modern feel to the invite with a more slimline, less structured and off-centre design. Simply stunning!

Wedding Invitation Inspiration: I love the look of block letters in type - the way it looks casey provides a highly creative and modern style choice and incorporating traditional script within the text provides an interesting variation of typeface.  This invitation oozes style and sophistication!

Wedding Invitations: Invitations For All Occasions

Keeping The Kids Entertained

On a special day such as your wedding, the question of children attending your wedding is always a tricky one.  Understandably, it's a long day for a child to sit quietly and behave and parents with babies and young children hesitate to leave their child at home with a babysitter.  That's why I love the idea of creating a creche that is as unique as your event.  Mobile creche facilities provide safe and areas for play and activities such as beading, painting, puzzles, board games, lego and much, much more Green Shoes, is Adelaide's most popular choice for child care to compliment your wedding. Chaperoning, activity workshops or babysitting can be accommodated at the venue, home or hotel suite, providing safe, fun, caring and stimulating environments for the children while you enjoy your function!

Couture Chocolate Centrepieces

I just wanted to share these mouthwatering couture chocolate coated jumbo strawberries that offer the perfect alternative to the traditional wedding centrepiece. Chocolates and strawberries have always been associated with love and romance and there is no better way of bringing family and guests together at your wedding than with a stunning arrangement that is fun, indulgent and satisfies the senses of sight, taste and smell! Berry Pop offers an exquisite range of strawberries and dried fruits hand dipped in white, milk and dark couverture chocolate, set in unique arrangements to compliment any wedding styling. Strawberries can be accented with dried peaches, pears, figs and dates and each dried fruit can be decorated with coconut, spinkles, glitter, freckles, sugar butterflies, stars and gold leaf. These are some of the mouth watering berries we had the pleasure of tasting at one of our recent photo shoots - simply divine!

Hollywood Inspiration

When I imagine a swan, I picture poise, beauty, elegance and grace - all synonymous with any stylish bride and after seeing the movie 'The Black Swan' starring Natalie Portman, I was inspired by the true elegance and beauty of feathers.  I just love the simplicity and the sensuality that feathers bring to bridal fashion.  This ostrich feathered clutch I came across, with its beautiful long silky feathers and gold frame, is a beautiful statement piece for any soft and romantic wedding theme. And a girl just can't go past these magnificent sky-high Manolo Blahnik feather T strap sandals…paired with a bridal gown in a similar colour, you are bound to have a winning combination…
