Wire Works

Look at these nifty wire works from Debeaux Souvenirs in France. They would make really interesting talking points for reception decoration, especially if one spelt out the bride and groom's names. Luckily for us they ship worldwide via Etsy.


This one would be an ideal spot for guests to drop a handwritten note to the couple.

Table Numbers

Loving these brown bottle stensiled vases and tags from LetterboxCo. Use the tags with some twine around napkins to show guests which table is which or use the bottles as table number vases, they only need one or two blooms to make a stunning centrepiece.The brown bottles start at $5 each and the tags $12 for 10 plus postage.

Daylesford Dreaming

I know this ad featuring the gorgeous Isabel Lucas is a bit old now but I love it. It really makes me want to go to Daylesford! Daylesford would be a fantastic place to honeymoon in with all of the beautiful spas there to really get you relaxed after the stresses that go into planning a wedding. It also has an amazing wine and foodie scene with lots of good restaurants to dine at like the multi award winning The Lakehouse.



The ad also show The Convent which is a beautiful place to have a wedding. The Convent has everything in the one location. Ceremony options include the original chapel, beautiful manicured gardens or glass conservatory. There are two function rooms to choose from with the altar bar available to guests who want to party on after the wedding.



Another part of the ad I like is the mix of lamps that line the road - it looks so pretty. You could easily replicate this on a smaller scale lining stairs leading to your venue with perhaps using candles instead of light bulbs (no need for lots of extension cords). Mis-matched lamps would also make for quirky centrepieces.

Fun Photos

Earlier this week we received an email from Thomas Marlow introducing us to his fantastic photo booths. A new take on the old-style photo booths (which I love by the way), each one is set up to suit the couple's taste and wedding style. Guests are given a remote control to the camera meaning they can take photos as they please.







The results are really fun and the best part, the sets can be easily broken down and sent anywhere in the world. Custom designed photo booth commissions begin from $2500 USD if you're interested.
