A Grand Reception

A fantastic way to carry a theme throughout a wedding is with flowers. Beautiful floral arrangements on reception tables that match the Bride's bouquet or the arrangements at the ceremony. Great way to bring colour, life and fragrance to a room. There are so many different options for reception flowers. Floating flowers, glass vases or cut flower displays, so there is definitely something to suit everyone's particular tastes and styles.  

For more photos and details about our flower packages please visit our website or visit our Facebook for details of our October 2011 offer which won't last much longer.

Dream Dress

Choosing the perfect dress for your wedding is one of the most important things in planning your wedding day, after all eyes will be on you on the day.

Here are some helpful hints to finding your dream dress.

• Work out what time of the year your wedding will be in. This will influence the type of    gown you choose and material it’s made from.
• Set a budget inclusive of shoes, accessories and veil if you decide.
• Look through bridal magazines and think about what style you might be after. Just remember the dresses may look completely different on you than the model so be open to trying different styles as they may fit you better.
• Find a few options of bridal stores that match your budget, location and style you’re interested in and book an appointment at the store.
• Go to your scheduled appointments. Ask for the store assistants opinion as to what style might suit you the best. They are professionals and know what styles fit what body shapes.
• Once you find a dress you like don’t purchase it until you are completely sure and have tried a range of dresses on. Take photographs of you in the dress to see how it looks in photographs and don’t rush into purchasing it. You can always ask the store assistant to write down the details of the dress.
• Just like you had the feeling about your fiancé being ‘the one’, you will also get that with the dress. Shop around until you find your dream dress you fall in love with.

Make Me Up

Hair

There's nothing like the perfect hairstyle to complement the perfect dress on your special day. Whether is a stylist up-do or loose curls, here are our a couple of helpful hints for amazing wedding hair and make up.

1. Find a good hair stylist. This could be through your local salon, searching the internet or the best is recommendations from friends who have been happy with the service they've received.

2. Have a trial run of the hairtyle you might like for your wedding day a few months before the wedding. Take photos to take with you when shopping for headpieces. Think about how the hairstyle looks like from all angles and how it will look in photographs as you're going to be photographed from a range of angles.

3. Find the perfect headpiece or accessories to go with your chosen hairstyles.  You could go veil, a sparkly comb or a sparkly bobby pin. The key is to complement the rest of your look and just remember to keep it simple.

Make Up

1. Try to keep your face natural on your wedding day unless you want to look as pale as a ghost or have a cake face. The key is looking natural enough to look good in person with your guests but have your features stand out in photos sometimes.

2. The best way to have perfect wedding make up is to get it professionally done. Make up artists will be able to give you the look you like and be able to give you ideas about what colours and tones will look good with your skin tone. They will know all the tricks of the trade by covering every blemish and giving a flawless finish. After all, they are professionals.

3. Have a trial run of make up is just as important as your hair. Most make up artists offer packages to make the process more economical and you prioritise and can go as simple or complex as possible. 

4. Relax and enjoy the process. There's nothing better than being pampered. This may be having a massage, facial or manicure so you end up feeling completely refreshed and renewed before your big day.
