Alannah Rose {wedding} ~ Danielle & David ~ Butterfly Garden Wedding Stationery
alannah rose weddings, weddingsToday’s beautiful wedding is that of Danielle & David – I love these pictures, the day is full of so much happiness and love, the essence of what weddings are all about.
Danielle and David were married on March 14 at Quaff in Toorak Village.
Their wedding theme was black & white with a touch of pink. Our Butterfly Garden wedding invitations and stationery suited this perfectly and tied in well with Danielle’s butterfly brooch – a gift from her late grandmother – which became a special symbol of the day.
“My Grandmother was so excited her eldest grandchild was getting married, however she was sick with cancer and when I gave her the invite, she asked me to describe my dress. When I mentioned about the brooch, she said that would be my gift for the wedding from her. Unfortunately she passed away a couple of weeks later. So, the celebrant made special mention of that also being a symbol of my wedding, the butterfly and the brooch. And so I had my bonbonierre which was a bottle stopper in the shape of a butterfly and my bubbles had a butterfly on them also.” says Danielle
Danielle’s dress by L’Amour Bridal Boutique had an elegant black sash which her butterfly brooch sat on, and the black halter neck bridesmaids gowns were by Black Rose. The touch of pink was added to the stunning floral bouquets by Say it with Flowers.
The cake – a delicious array of white chocolate cupcakes iced in black and white by Cherrytree were a hit with guests and further complimented the black and white wedding theme.

“I loved the whole day. From getting ready with my bridesmaids at mums, going to the ceremony with Dad in the lovely Bentley, arriving at Quaff, and the anticipation of entering the room to see it filled with people we love and care about and of course seeing my husband to be. And all the speeches were lovely and my MC was a girlfriend’s husband who was absolutely fantastic and had everyone laughing and joining in. And the rest of the evening was just a lovely party with people chatting and dancing all through the night. I almost had to be dragged out to leave but our gift from one of the bridesmaids, a night at The Westin, was definitely worth leaving for and we had a lovely time there.” says Danielle
Congratulations Danielle and David on a truly gorgeous wedding day, thanks so much for sharing with us. xx
Sunday Find ~ Capital {kitchen}
life, sunday findsOk, so today’s find isn’t really a new find for me, – I’ve pretty much been a frequent diner since they opened – but it’s one I thought I’d share as it’s such a cold day in Melbourne today, Capital Kitchen really is the perfect place for a cold lazy Sunday.
I love good food and good coffee and Capital Kitchen never disappoints me – relatively new at Chadstone, this gorgeous cafe is oozing with charm and atmosphere.

I love the grey, white and yellow colour palette with a rustic vintage feel, and I love how sometimes they change the table decorations – for mothers day they had daffodils in grey gumboots on the tables a simple yet effective idea.
It’s an inspiring space, and the coffee and food are delicious – the poached chicken wrap and the quince and raspberry muffins being my favourites. The kids love the $5.00 milkshake and cookie deal and a cup of yellow jellybeans on the way out the door is always a treat.
Happy Sunday!

alannah rose weddings, weddingsToday I’d like to share with you the beautiful wedding of Julianne and Mark.
I’m in awe at the beauty of these images, they are so romantic and happy, and the richness and warmth of the reception venue is just breathtaking.
Julianne and Mark were married on 31st December last year in the The Chapel of St. Mary and St. George at Guildford Grammar School in Western Australia. Their stunning rose themed reception followed in the The Oak Room at Sandalford Wines in Caversham.
Julianne chose our Rose Tapestry wedding invitations to tie in with the beautiful rose blooms she chose for the day.

Birdie {baby shower}
alannah rose parties, inspiration boardsThere’s nothing we love more than celebrating a brand new baby and we think our Hatching Soon Baby Shower Invitation has just the right amount of cluck, cluck cluckiness for any mum to be!
A birdie theme is just right for a baby shower, the promise of sweet new things to come! Sweet treats like cupcakes are a must (and we think a bottle of perfect pink bubbles for the guests is a necessary accompaniment!) and sugared almonds in twig nests echo our birdie and egg theme. Pretty garlands strung from the rafters look perfect blowing in the breeze and our La La Bird Pocket Mirrors are the perfect gift for games or to share with your guests as a token of appreciation!

Sunday Find {polka dot tissue paper}
parties, sunday findsI’m a little excited about today’s find, I’ve got a soft spot for polka dots, red and white in particular, so when I stumbled across this red and white polkadot tissue paper in Big W, I snapped it up!
Part of their Christmas range (look in the wrap section), it’s perfect for making pretty party pom poms, not just for christmas, but for any parties you may have planned for the year. Run don’t walk party planners, they won’t have it after the festive season!

Pretty {little} Pops – Easy Party Food
baby, partiesMy youngest daughter and I had a lovely afternoon yesterday testing out some ideas for party food for her 4th birthday later in the year. These pretty little pops are the results of our efforts.
These lovely marshmallow pops are so easy to make, even the kids could do them.
You’ll need:
1 packet of marshmallows
1 packet of choc melts
Coloured sprinkles or candy to decorate
cocktail forks or lollipop sticks
baking paper
Simply place a marshmallow on the stick or fork, dip in the melted chocolate and place on the baking paper. Decorate with the sprinkles and then place in the fridge to set. Once set remove from fridge and place in rows on a plate for a great dessert table idea that the kids will love.
