Disney Floral & Photography


Very exciting day today!

Rosie from Disney Floral & Photography called to discuss our cruise favors and also my bouquet and DF’s buttonhole for our Magic Kingdom photos.

She is just gorgeous! So helpful and she let me put in an order for the items from Frank’s studio I wanted as well.

These are the chocolate favor options I have 


or we can choose a Mickey Bottle Stopper $6.95


Or Mickey Ornament $10


I think we will go with the chocolate Mickey Ears & Mickey Rice Krispies.

Rosie also sent me the Mickey Pin-tuck accessory list, now to decide on just one!

Dress Your Wedding with David's Bridal

 
While I was searching for wedding dresses on the David’s Bridal website, I came across a great online tool called “Dress Your Wedding”!
 
It’s a FREE online tool that allows you to select your colours, dresses, tuxes, and many many other accessories to create a vision of your wedding day.
 
Apart from being good fun, if you spend the time setting up your virtual bridal party to mirror your real life bridal party, it’s a great way to experiment with endless combinations of styles and colours all from the comfort of home !

The Jane McGrath Rose

The McGrath Foundation holds a special place in my heart and today at the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show, The Jane McGrath Rose was launched.

For me the gorgeous pale pink English style bush rose represents both a soft graceful elegance and an unwavering resilience, a fitting tribute for a lady who continues to inspire so many.

Ballarat rose breeders Ron and Barbara Inverarity and Bolwarra’s Treloar Roses approach Mrs McGrath about the flower just months before her death from Breast Cancer last year.

With 80 cents from the sale of each rose being donated to the McGrath Foundation, it is sure to help raise much needed funds and assist the McGrath Breast Care Nurses programme.

To find out more or pre order the Jane McGrath Rose visit http://www.treloarroses.com.au/

Disney's Couture Collection by David Tutera

We are almost at the point where we will be allowed to sign on the dotted line with WDW.  Sure, it's still a few months away (as you have to wait until the eight month mark before signing contracts), but the signing date is in sight and that is when all our researching turns to planning!  
 
We have been looking at a couple ceremonies & reading up on all the different options for months and months. And I have come to love the David Tutera Collection.
 
This basically leaves minimal work for us after we select the theme collection we want, as everything within each collection has been pre-selected, including the locations, centerpieces, linens and flowers the type of event you selected.
 
Then we get to turn up like guests at our own wedding, knowing exactly what everything will look like and that everything has been taken care of.


You can choose between the following four themes;

Classic Elegance -- a traditional, romantic setting that marries gold and pink and features an abundance of crystal chandeliers and numerous gilded mirrors to create the ultimate formal wedding.
 

Cocktail Soiree -- chocolate browns and ice blues come together with chic lounge-style furniture and an illuminated bar to create a hip and contemporary party environment. 


Enchanted Garden -- soft, springtime palettes of yellow and green create a fanciful floral garden setting amidst topiaries and butterflies in flight.
 

 

Simply Chic -- clean contemporary lines, suspended white lanterns and the use of Lucite and glass in a pure white party space with green accents create a fresh take on a modern look.
 
 

I love all the themes, if we end up with enough guests for a wishes wedding, it will be difficult to choose just one !

Our Wedding Logo


This is something I have been putting a lot of thought into as I want it to run right through our planning & day from the beginning, and be as much a part of the theme as our colors & venue.

Trying to get it right is more difficult that I though, attempting to create something from scratch that is equally fun, classic & vinyard with with a nice balance of color and that touch of Disney.
 
Our colors are going to be pink, sage green & silver.

So far this is my inspiration board

That one picture

I’m always searching for that one picture, colour, poem, object or word of inspiration that captures the project I'm working on or inspires my next.

 
When planning my events I always have my jumping off point, that one piece of inspiration that everything else flows from. Since starting to plan my own wedding, I have been searching for it, that one image to capture the vision. After finding lots of lovely things but not quite the right one, today I finally found that that speaks to me, it’s perfect !


This is exactly what I what our wedding to be ! Classic, simple, fun and timeless, with that touch of Disney
