Cut out wedding dress - Lady Gaga desinger

Um.. not so sure about this one! 

UK model and DJ Lady Mary Chateris (don't worry I have no idea who she is either) got wed at the start of this month in a Pam Hogg designer dress.  

Who is Pam Hogg I hear you say? Well she has dressed the likes of Lady Gaga and its not surprise to see why Gaga chose her to dress her when you look at this wedding dress!!


What looks like mesh cut outs and silk panels with a tulle ruffle skirt aaaaand long sleeves, is totally not my cup of tea, you shouldn't be able to see your belly button on your wedding day right?!! 

I believe you should always wear whatever the heck you want so good for her, she has the figure for it but the mesh and the seems and the low jutting out mermaid skirt. It just really doesn't work at all.

What do you think?  Would you be game enough to wear a dress like this for your wedding?

Video invitations

Happy Monday! 

Ive been browsing the internet on one of my favourite wedding blogs (greenweddingshoes.com) and came across this awesome Save the date wedding video -click link below.


I have never seen a video invite before and thought it was such a great way to get the word out to your guests especially if like us they are all over the world. I love making youtube videos so this is something I would consider doing.

I love how this couple did the video together, it is so cute and such a good effort. It took them 15 hours to complete.  I'm not sure my fiance would be able to paint for that long but I really like the creativity behind it!  

What do you think, would you be game enough to create a video?

Unique wedding gift ideas

While I won't be expecting any gifts as we are having a destination wedding and our guests presence will be presents enough, I thought I would discuss unique wedding gift ideas as I'm sure once you start going to a few weddings you will quickly run out of ideas or get worried someone might bring along the same gift!

Here are some unique ideas for those hard to buy for brides and grooms without a gift registry.... or you just want to give a gift that is truely different.

Bird Nesting House

This cute bird nesting house will add a nice sweet touch to any newlyweds garden by British writer and designer Sophie Conran. 

There is nothing nicer than watching a pair of birds move in and start a family. Simply hang up, ideally at least a couple of metres off the ground and wait for the new inhabitants to arrive. 
-  Mr Sparrow (http://mrsparrow.com/shop-1/sophie-conran-birdhouse)

Price: AUD$32.00 


Mystery Tube
A postage tube filled with unique and original art by artist Kirst Ohh.   The idea behind the mystery tube is that for $65 you buy an original piece of art but you have no idea what it is until it arrives in the post or is given as a gift!

Price: AUD$ 65.00 (Postage included)



Weekend hire of a luxury sports car



Why not treat your friends with a Porche Boxter for an entire weekend (three days)! If you are lucky they might even treat you to a ride.

Price: $1,000

Table Settings



How gorgeous is this table setting?!

Source: http://theweddingtree.tumblr.com

Teal, gold and white.  So chic and crisp it works so well together and having a contrasting table runner makes the whole setting pop.  Ziz zag is one of my ultimate favourite patterns with its simple angles it adds an optical element and makes is SNAZZY!

The coloured rim of the plate is amazing, I die for this colour.  My absolute favourite in the whole entire world.

As I get closer to a year out from my own wedding I am starting to think about how I really want things to look.  

This picture from theweddingtree tumblr blog is a great inspiration.

What are your favourite colour combos?  


Stay Snazzy,

Wow, so im pretty certain i really really want something metallic or with metallic sparkly gorgeous embellishments.

I used to think i wasn't into that but WHOA that was until I came across Australian designer, Rachel Gilbert.  Her dresses are beyond amazing and simply beautiful.

I always thought I would inject colour through flowers and accessories so going a bit metallic on the dress could really work.  Check out these stunning dresses and let me know what you think in the comment box below. Each come in a nude or white version with the occasional one in a colour option too (like the teal one below).






These dresses range from $950 to $1,150 and are all embellished and made with 100% silk.

Top (L-R):     Yael Gown     $995.00          Sonya Gown            $1,050.00
