Alannah Rose Exclusive Stationery Boutique

One of the best things about my job is that I can design things that I love. One of my favorite designs at the moment is Love Light - it’s such a simple and classic design - modern, romantic and glamorous - all rolled into one. So I was particularly thrilled to see the images of Fiona and Mark’s Love Light themed wedding in the current issue of Style Guide. Fiona, owner of wedding planning business Couture Wedding Planning wanted to create a classic Hollywood glamour theme for her wedding, the results below show she achieved just that.

Fiona and Mark were married at St Thomas in North Sydney followed by a cocktail cruise around the harbour and reception on the top floor of Star City in the Astral Restaurant.
Above: A classic black and white theme featured in the wedding, from the bridesmaids and groomsmens attire through to the black sash on Fiona’s Mark Holt gown. Flowers by Maria Lush. Grooms suit by Matthew Lawrence Bespoke.

Above: Reception tables were set with black candelabra, mirrored vases and crystals to complement the chandelier motif on the Alannah Rose Love Light wedding menus and place cards. A stunning cake by Faye Cahill was created to co-ordinate with the Alannah Rose Love Light wedding invitations and stationery.

For those that don’t know, aside from running Alannah Rose and raising two gorgeous girls, we are in the middle of a big renovation (read: five year project), and that I’m addicted, ok maybe obsessed with home magazines at the moment. I subscribe to a lot - possibly all - and Real Living is one of my faves, lots of images to pour over, places on where to find them and homes to drool over. So you can imagine how thrilled I was to find not only our one little lala bird gift tags and invites mentioned on page 90 of the November issue, but also to have such a gorgeous big shot of my little girl holding them! (that’s her top left).

Thanks so much Real Living Magazine!

I love it when clients share their celebration photos with me, so I was thrilled when clever mum Marissa emailed through these gorgeous shots of her daughter Elle’s 1st Birthday last Sunday.

Using a our One Little Lala Bird invitations as a base, she put together a pretty pink and red theme.
Marissa made all the little details including the party hats. The cake was made by Nikos Quality Cakes in Oakleigh. I particularly love how she’s used an invitation on the top of the cake stand to further theme in the little lala bird and our one lala party tags are the perfect finishing touch.

Thanks so much for sharing Marissa, and happy birthday Elle!

Technology never ceases to amaze me, only a few years ago people didn’t even know what blogs were (ok some still don’t, but we’ll give them time). Now there’s all manner of things to read, watch and love on the net. We’ve decided to embrace the digital era and also join the likes of twitter and facebook.

You can follow me on twitter here please come by and say hello.

Or become a fan of our facebook page here. We’ll be adding lots of photos and content that we don’t always have time to post on the blog - new designs, things that inspire us and things we love - like these gorgeous tulips that we used in a recent photoshoot. The jug is my favourite - by Terence Conran, I love the way the tulips dance over the sides.

Let’s chat soon.
