Alannah Rose Exclusive Stationery Boutique

We are thrilled to have one of our gorgeous clients weddings featured in Real Weddings magazine this month.

Sally and Siva were married on the 25th August 2007 in Western Australia and the images of their wedding are just breathtaking.

Working with Sally and her wedding planner Cathrin D’Entremont, we put together a stationery suite using our gorgeous Vintage Night design in black and ivory to help set the scene of her magical day. Engagement invitations, Wedding Invitations, rsvp cards, place cards, thank you cards, guest book, menu’s and a magnificent seating chart were produced.

The stunning black and ivory vintage night theme was carried throughout the wedding from Sally’s divine Johanna Johnson gown with black back sash, to the swirls on the cake inspired by the stationery, and a magnificent black candelabra.

Included below are some of the beautiful photographs taken by Natasja at NK Photography of Sally and Siva’s wedding to admire and inspire.

I quite often get asked for advice on invitation wording.
We do have a small section for wedding invitation wording on the Alannah Rose site here that caters for most wedding scenarios.

Another site that I love and is great for wording is www.verseit.com
This little gem has wording for all occasions, weddings, engagements, christenings and baby showers, together with verses and poems if this is something you are also looking to add to your stationery.

Always remember to choose a style of wording that is relevant to the style of day you are planning. If it is a formal occasion, then something very formal is appropriate and vice versa.

Black and white is one of my favourite wedding themes at the moment. This is an inspiration board I’ve put together on how you could tie this theme together. Stylish, simple and elegant, this stunning theme is timeless.

I just wanted to let you know that I have received my beautiful wedding invitations - thank you so much. It felt like Christmas when I was opening the box from the courier, to find the most exquisite packaging inside. When I did open your lovely parcel, I was so impressed at the time you had taken to carefully wrap the invitations and include a special treat. I really am very impressed!! I just love this sort of thing Thank you for making a special experience even more special, by being so thoughtful in everything you do for your clients. I really can’t thank you enough. You have been a delight to deal with.
