It’s a rare lady that isn’t swayed by the style of a little blue box. Our Tiffany Be Mine Invitation is a nod to our love of all things white and blue. Today I’m inspired by a breakfast celebration to echo the sentiments of a nostalgic era.

As promised! More beautiful images from the wedding of Camilla and Mark!

Sails Restaurant, Noosa Heads was the location for the couple’s evening celebration with their guests.

Above: Floral arrangements by A Sculpted Leaf. When we asked Camilla her #1 tip for brides, she said “Don’t bother getting disposable cameras for the tables.  Guests will take enough photos for you and they will be much better quality.”

Above: The couple ordered matching table numbers & place cards while Camilla also made a table seating plan, napkin decorations and favor tags to match. “So many people have commented that the wedding was one of the most beautiful they have seen and that the details really made it special.  Your amazing stationary made up most of the little details and the fact that it carried on through from the initial invitations to the ceremony and the reception was something many guests commented positively on.”

Alannah Rose also created the matching patterned paper that was incorporated into the delicious cake tiers by Cake Conversations.

Thanks so much Camilla and Mark for sharing your delightful wedding day with us! We are so honoured to have been a part of such a beautiful day xx

Today’s real wedding is the elegant & sophisticated celebration of our beautiful clients Camilla and Mark who married on the 18th of October 2009 in Noosa, Queensland.

The relaxed outdoor feel of Camilla and Mark’s wedding fit right into the Noosa culture- the sun was shining and amidst all of our couple’s special touches, a momentous occasion was celebrated. What fun!

Camilla and Mark chose our Vintage Night invitation in custom latte- they also chose our complimentary stationery suite and used the delicate swirls and soft colours as the basis of their wedding theme! Camilla recounts “Not only did we have Alannah Rose Save The Dates, Invitations, Guest Info Cards, RSVP postcards, Place Cards, Table Names, Order of Service Books and Thank you cards but we incorporated the same colour and design throughout the whole wedding”

There are so many beautiful photos of today’s wedding I can’t fit them into one post!

Above: Our Vintage Night invitation in custom latte to compliment the elegant mood of their wedding. “The stationery had a big part in creating the theme and the style of the wedding.  We had the same colours and design through from the Save the Dates to the decor at the ceremony and reception and then the Thank You cards.” says Camilla  “The stationery helped create the finer details that made our wedding such a stand out.”

Camilla chose an elegant strapless ball gown from Mariana Hardwick while her bridesmaids wore gowns in shades of white from Ultra Suite.

Above: Our newlyweds were married at Hidden Grove just outside Noosa

“One of my favourite parts of the day was walking through the trees near the beach to a clearing where the ceremony was set up.  The area had been decorated beautifully with crystals and ribbons with roses hanging from the trees, the ground was a sea of white rose petals and the anticipation of seeing my husband-to-be was overwhelming.  It was surreal like a dream and although I was very emotional the scene before me took my breath away.  I cried the whole way down the aisle, my husband shed a few tears watching me and I’m pretty sure all the guests were crying too.  It was very heartfelt.” recalls Camilla.

Bella of Bella Designs & Imagery captured the special moments of the wedding day.

The colours of Camilla and Mark were echoed throughout the wedding with Camilla making a welcome board featuring their stationery design and even printing the wedding vows onto matching paper. The couple also ordered co-ordinating order of service books in our Hollywood Glamour design as an added touch.

To be continued…. more of Camilla and Mark’s beautiful Noosa wedding coming this afternoon xx

I love the bold shades of aqua and emerald in our Emerald Gem invitation. Today’s board centers around that boldness- clean, crisp lines, bold shapes with a very urban feel. Little treats like blue glass jars tied with ribbons and filled with candles add an unexpected softness.

A pretty wedding in shades of purple today! The colour of royalty, this style suits any time of year. In winter, use darker shades in your colour palette to draw on the rich warmth of your event. Spring and summer call for more mauves and lilacs with little tiny touches of inky purples.

For today’s wedding inspiration board, we went for a formal, elegant look. We mixed and matched lots of purples- just like our Mauve On Monday Wedding Invitation. We love the look of different shades of the one colour coming together! Of course, the perfect venue for this event would be surrounded by fields of lavender blooms!

Our bold new Cartouche Rose wedding invitation is the perfect style for a vintage, regal inspired wedding.

Lots of lace to reflect the rich floral pattern on the invitation- echoed into even the smallest elements like the wedding cake and the almost Victorian feel of the wedding gown. This invitation style is no wallflower, so to avoid the look becoming too pretty, add in some bold elements like a beautiful pair of black shoes and accessories. Decorate your reception with rich black chandeliers and plenty of gold!

We’ve always admired the work of Australian couture bridal designer Karen Willis Holmes so we were thrilled today to discover one of our couples, Heather & Jed, had their wedding featured on their blog today!

Heather and Jed married at Broken Head (near Byron Bay) on April 25th this year. The couple were inspired by our Embellish Invitation Suite for their wedding day and for their beachside ceremony used elegant floral arrangements form Beautiflora and shades of blue, green and brown.

Heather looked stunning in the Karen Willis Holmes ‘Sharon’ gown accessorized with a handmade cabbage rose corsage, her bridesmaids wore Harvey & Ella while Jed accessorized his gray suit with a smart green & white striped tie.

The couple celebrated with guests at a nearby beach house feasting on a Moroccan style banquet catered by based Eat Drink Catering.

Congratulations Heather & Jed! You make such beautiful newlyweds and were a joy to work with! x

I don’t think the lily with it’s vibrant pinks and white will ever go out of style for a wedding! Today’s inspiration comes from the Lily Blush Wedding Invitation.

To celebrate our brand new Swirls and Twirls wedding invitations (as seen in Real Weddings magazine), we’ve created an inspiration board in vintage golds and blacks.

The design, while sophisticated in nature, has an elegance to it – one that is wonderfully reflected in the oh so chic bride, her designer cake and the unexpected headpiece. Further whimsical touches are added through casual coloured glassware and sparklers – of course an amazing pair of shoes that echo the wedding invitation design can’t hurt either!
