Lena's Wedding

I stumbled upon this delightful wedding on Flickr.  Lena did a beautiful job in creating an outdoor celebration that looks special and take full advantage of those beautiful surrounds.  I'm just loving her 50's inspired dress as well.  I'm suck a sucker for a full skirt! hehe.

King of the Castle

Rachel Castle is one clever little lady.  She founded Castle, a collection of handcrafted and handprinted pieces for the home.  She reminds me a little Tracey Emin with her felted word artworks.  Rachel also has a cant find anywhere else bed linen range.  If you are in the mood for some eye candy you should stop by Castle.

Happy Weekend

Happy Weekend everyone! What are you up to this weekend?  Its already been quite busy for me.  Last night I volunteered as support crew for a bunch of friends who are doing the Oxfam Trail Walker challenge this weekend, then a family dinner was in order.  Today the big A and I have been for a run (he totally kicked my unhealthy butt) and then tonight we have a super sweet party on.  I think tomorrow could be filled with a DVD marathon of Gavin & Stacey.  Yay!

It's A Sad Farewell

My friends, Its a sad day.  You may remember that a while back I bought the most awesome 60's sofa and I have been daydreaming about how I'd cover it and how nice it would be to have a new couch.  But its not to be, the reupholstering is that bit too difficult so the sofa is up on ebay.  Check it out here.



Bridesmaid Day

Oh stop it! Stop it now!  I am in love with these cute bridesmaid outfits.  Matching, same colour, but different all together. I just love them!

Bridesmaid Day

Today we are celebrating bridesmaids!  Those lovely friends and family that are most near and dear to you that get to be invovled in all the fun and exciting of getting hitched.  

First up, how to ask your bridesmaids?  Anne of Rifle Design posted a lovely DIY idea over at Once Wed.  She loved the idea of formally asking people so she created this darling little mailer.  You can read more about it and grab the instructions over here.

Wanna Mustache?

Has anyone else noticed this trend in weddings and photo booths.  Everywhere I turn I'm seeing cute little mustache portraits.... and i love it!  At my next photo booth I definetly think we'll be rocking some mustache action.

A Vintage Dress

Would you just look at this fabulous 1950's vintage gown from Sarah and Colin's wedding? Its oh so Grace Kelly / Audrey Hepburn and I just love it.  





The Paper Lace Garland

What a darling idea.  The girls over Project Wedding have done it again with their diy paper lace garland.  A simple and easy idea that would look so effective against any colour scheme.  I think I'll need to throw another party just so I can do this idea. 




A Crown Fit For A Birthday Boy

I'm racking my brain right now for someone who has a birthday coming up soon where I can use this delightful crown.  I could see a little boy just loving to have a special crown to celebrate his special day.  Another lovely find from Baumbirdy.

Flower Veils

My lovely cousin Tess had a floral head piece at her wedding (it was an awesome day) and it got me thinking to chicks who can rock florals rather than a veil.  I think its a pretty cool look when done right.

The Pretend Wedding Of Penelope and William

This one is an oldie in blog world but I recently read the story behind this shoot and I couldn't resist sharing with you.  The very talented Tec Petaja created this wedding story for Nashville Lifestyles.  It follows the wedding day of pretend couple Penelope and William and I tells you the look is just loverly!  A farm yard style wedding was set complete with hay bales but the part I love the most is the simply enchanting dinner set in the great outdoors.  Its mismatched perfectness!  Enjoy....
