Let's Celebrate!

There's no denying that celebrating a dear friends wedding is fabulous fun. One of my old school friends, Shvonne, married the lovely Luke on the 1st May and I would be lying if I said it wasn't a fabulous day. Their reception was held at Tapestry Winery in the wine region of McLaren Vale, South Australia. I should make sure I mention the food was simply delicious and was, of course, matched with yummy wines from the winery itself. When asked by Shvonne which photographer I'd recommend I didn't hesitate to suggest WSG's dear friend and fashion photographer Claudio Raschella. His photos were beautiful, candid and really did capture the love and fun filled day perfectly. Congratulations Von & Luke!!


Shvonne's gorgeous dress was from Rapsimo while her cuter than cute shoes were from Alan Pinkus


A simply glowing bride!


The very handsome groom Luke




One of the most delicious wedding cakes I've ever tasted. The three tiered creation was courtesy of Sugar & Spice Cakes


The bridal party from L-R - James, Benjamin, Kieran, Heath, Luke, Shvonne, Samantha, Chantal, Danielle and Suzannah. The bridesmaids dresses were by Mai Loui designer Anna Williamson and the suits were from Youthworks


To think we've all grown up together and now we're celebrating weddings is pretty mind blowing. These are the simply gorgeous girls I was lucky enough to go to school with, some of whom I've known since I was five years old! (I'm in the hot pink!)

Pretty Simple

I have seen some amazing weddings come past my desk while we have been working on our spring issue! Here is one I really wanted to share with you - Rowena and Chris had a beautiful and relaxed wedding...I just love their unique bouquets. Those who know me will know that flowers are my 'thing' and I have to say these bouquets by Lotus Flowers caught my eye. There is quite an art in making flowers seem relaxed and loosely arranged and when done well there is nothing more perfect than an imperfect bouquet. Of course credit where credit is due, the whole day was captured perfectly by the very talented Karalee from Angelsmith Photography.


Rowena looked perfect in her Lisa Ho dress.




Rowena and Chris had the sweetest Cake Stories cake.

Fly Me to the Moon

Cathrin D'Entremont of Cathrin D'Entremont Weddings has very kindly shared with us a styling shoot she did recently with a number of fabulous Western Austrlian suppliers. Fly Me to the Moon was inspired by the old charm of country stables. The palette that were used included cornflower blue with accents of antique gold and soft pinks and purples with natural accents in cream and dark wood. Cathrin and her team too shot on location in the stables at the gorgeous Stewarts Brookleigh in Uppper Swan WA. We're loving the hydrangea detail on the backs of the gorgeous antique wood chairs!

A Delicious Discovery

It's always exciting to come across new suppliers who do what they do so well and I recently discovered the website of Yummy Cupcakes & Cakes. Well, #1 - I was all of a sudden craving a piece of cake and #2 - I thought the creations looked too good to eat! Patricia Hardjopranoto clearly has a cleaver eye and some of the examples of her work she sent through were divine. Definitely a delicious discovery! Visit www.yummycupcakes.com.au to view the gallery.

Grand Designs

I am a fan of gorgeously grand wedding cakes. Of course they have to complement the theme for the day but when in your life are you going to be able to spoil yourself with a simply amazing cake? Your wedding day, that's when! I caught sight of this cake on the lovely blog Snippet & Ink and thought ohhh... how gorgeous! The bride had this to say about her cake.

"Our wedding cake was another wonderful surprise. Perfect Endings made the most beautiful cake, decorated with simple white buttercream and cyclamen flowers. I didn’t realize until later that they were made of sugar! (This cake from Perfect Endings has always been one of my favorites, so it was incredibly special to have them make our wedding cake, complete with sugar flowers.) There were two tiers of lemon sponge cake with lemon curd and two tiers of Mahogany cake (chocolate layer cake with chocolate hazelnut truffle cream). If I ever need another special occasion cake at anytime in my life, it will be Perfect Endings Mahogany cake… I dream about that cake…"

And there you have it. A cake that tastes as good as it looks!
