Invitations and other wedding stationary

Before ordering your wedding invitations, or start making them yourself, consider all the stationary you will need for the wedding. It doesn't begin and end with invitations!

Here is a list of the most common stationary you will need for the wedding:

Brides Diary - A Bride's best friend...

A few weeks ago I felt the stress and panic of wedding planning fever starting to take me over... So I joined an online forum where brides from across SA discuss their various wedding related dilemmas as well as any other NWR (non-wedding related) issues. I have found their insight and support an enormous help and would encourage any future brides to venture over to The Brides Diary and have a natter!

I would love to say thank you to all the lovely ladies who have given advice, inspiration and (virtual) tissues over the last few weeks! I am certain we will be chatting through out the whole wedding day run-up. Thanks Tandi, Tandy, Jess, Navlene, Tanisha, Nix, RKM, Karen, Karin, Megan, Tanz, Nelia, Natashia, Caz, Claudette, Claire, Careen, Robs, Jennilee, Ally, Cathy, Robyn, Chan, Shez, and anyone who I might have missed (Sorry!).

Good luck to those who's weddings are around the corner! Enjoy the day and remember: a marriage is more than a wedding day!

Further on Photographers

We met Andrea (the photographer) over coffee on Saturday past and Andrea, I apologise again for being late :-(. I knew I would like her and she answered all our questions and preempted a few others. So, she is booked for the 23rd of August, and I believe wholeheartedly that we will have fabulous pictures of our wedding day! Below is some photos I love that she took of another couple previously.

I also would love to do a "Trash the Dress' (or TTD) shoot after the wedding, and she has agreed that we could do that! Here are some stunning TTD shots by Australian photographers.
