We love our creative clients at Alannah Rose Stationery and we’re always in awe of their beautiful weddings! Today’s client wedding is of Rebecca and Kale who married at the Matilda Bay Foreshore In Perth and used the Alannah Rose Chantilly Chandelier invitation in latte to start their wedding style.

“We wanted our wedding to be elegant, but not too formal, so we tried to bring in elements that would help create that atmosphere. The theme we went for was a hint of old Hollywood.” says Rebecca “I love stationery, so one of the first things we picked for the wedding was our invitations. We decided early on the Chantilly Chandelier Latte stationery by Alannah Rose. Once we had picked the latte colour everything else just came together. We found gorgeous bridesmaids dresses in that colour and then selected flowers, decor etc to compliment it.”

Rebecca and Kale had their wedding photographs taken by Anna Rose Photography.

“I loved my dress, which was from Pallas Couture. I have really individual taste, and couldn’t see myself in a traditional wedding dress. The girls at Pallas really listened to what I was after and created such a beautiful gown. I just loved it and felt so comfortable and glamorous in it on the day. My shoes were by Christian Louboutin, which I bought online from Net-a-porter..”

“My favourite part of the day was the wedding ceremony. My Dad had been really sick in hospital just 6 weeks earlier, I remember standing there with Kale and looking out at our family and friends and feeling so blessed that they could all be there to share the moment.”

Check back later today for the rest of Rebecca and Kale’s gorgeous wedding!

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!

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

“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.

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

It’s so lovely to share our Alannah Rose real weddings with you!

Today’s is very special- the Queensland wedding of Megan and Mark who chose our Rose Tapestry invitation suite in custom blue. The soft cornflower blue was the perfect fit for the French country style wedding Megan and Mark planned.

When I asked Megan her number one tip for brides she said “Don’t blink on your wedding day – it goes far too quickly! Enjoy every minute of it!”

Above: The couple chose the Alannah Rose Rose Tapestry invitation suite in a custom blue. “The beautiful stationery from Alannah Rose was a big hit! We were so excited when we received our invitations – we were absolutely delighted with them. The matching invitations, service covers, menu covers and place cards really helped to create the theme and mood for the day and we received so many lovely comments on them. A lot of people commented on how they thought they were a lovely mix of classic, yet modern style” says Megan

Above: The country style bouquets were created by Geraldine of Bouquet Boutique in New Farm. 

Photographer Cory Rossiter captured the photographs for the day. “We loved the natural look of the photos when we saw them – he really captured the essence and fun of the day. ” Megan remarked.

Stanthorpe Uniting Church was the venue for one of Megan’s lasting wedding day memories “I loved walking back down the aisle of the church to Eva Cassidy’s “At Last” after we were married and greeting all our family and friends. ” All the music on Megan and Mark’s wedding ceremony was performed by family & friends.

Above: Megan and Mark held their reception at Giardino Café. Giardino means “little farm or garden” in Italian and Kristy from the cafe helped style the wedding features. “We discussed with Kristy that we wanted to create a romantic, French country style atmosphere with lots of white flowers in tall vases and candles filling the tables.” says Megan.  “She arranged everything and did such a beautiful job. We were absolutely delighted when we walked into the reception – it was so much more lovely than we had even imagined!”.

The beautiful wedding cake made a two hour journey from Toowoomba with it’s creator Robin Friedrichs who made sure the cake arrived intact!

The wedding was filmed by Megan’s uncle “My uncle Brett did the videography of the day for us. We were not going to worry about a video, when my uncle volunteered to do it for us.” says Megan “He did an amazing job and we are so glad to have the video now as a keepsake. It was great fun to be able to see the parts you weren’t there for – e.g. the groomsmen getting ready and then waiting at the church, the music at the church before we arrived etc. It will also be hilarious to watch in 20 years time I’m sure! “

Thanks so much Megan and Mark for sharing your wedding day with us x
