gold and pink night with stunning lanterns from centrepiece hire


















the lanterns were amazing at night


















We designed one night of green and chocolate brown, and the next in pinks , gold and dark clarret colour hues. This event was magical as the room configuration was changed each day to create fresh concepts. The hanging roof rain forest was beautiful at night and the cloths supplied by pacific linen just finished off the designs

The Lemon Tree

When getting married choose a theme and build your look around that. This makes the whole experience much more fun and gives you something to build your story around. This shoot was amazing we designed the style around yellow , sunshine and style. A vintage suit was brought from a thrift shop and teamed up with a mustard shirt.




















A wooden lemon tree was designed to be part of the pictures enhancing the day
use quirky buttonholes, eclectic ties and shoes make the day. Hats and accessories are fantastic also.

















Long shots from your photographer can cast shadows and make a fantastic shoot to remember

Daisy chrysanthemums are casually gathered together and tied with simple white ribbon































Make your day your own, think outside the square and don't be scared to be different, its your special day , take inspiration from things that you love, places you have traveled together and things that make you a couple.

Fathers Day, lets go wild and spoil him rotten

Its that time again Fathers Day is to be celebrated, below are some of my favorite quotes and then some ideas to spice up his day


He didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it. 
 ~Clarence Budington Kelland


My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard.  Mother would come out and say, "You're tearing up the grass."  "We're not raising grass," Dad would reply.  "We're raising boys." 
 ~Harmon Killebrew

Sometimes the poorest man leaves his children the richest inheritance. 


 ~Ruth E. Renkel


Think how hard they work, and how much we care lets not give sox and undies,its like giving us kitchen appliances!! lets shake things up. I secretly think the boys like being spoilt  just as much as us girls....
