A sweet and delicious smelling set up for a family Gingerbread House decorating competition this weekend! Of course complete with a grazing table to keep everyone fuelled as they decorate!

So much fun, Christmas is my favourite time of year so Christmas events are a huge hit for me!

I had the honour of acting as Mark & Ivy’s wedding coordinator last week and what a beautiful day it was! Even with the little sprinkling of rain the bride and groom looked radiant and it was a lovely celebration.

My wedding planning services come in 3 levels; full service planning, partial service planning and day of coordination! We can tailor a plan perfectly suited to you and your day.

What a beautiful day yesterday at Luke & Jessica’s baby shower!
It was a super sweet Winnie the Pooh themed shower filled with games, yummy sweets and celebrating the impending arrival of their baby boy.
🍯🐝🍼👶🏼💙
Congrats Luke & Jess, hope you enjoyed the day!

Thanks to Full On Cakes, Mr & Mrs Macs and Cake in the Afternoon for some of the gorgeous desserts 😋

Any event, any occasion, any theme; if you want to hold an event but don’t want to handle any or much of the organisation process let me take it off your hands! 🥰

Had an absolute blast creating a purple/silver/black themed 21st with some musical touches for Lisa on Saturday night!
As an avid lawn bowler Lisa was thrilled to be able to celebrate her birthday at her home club of Melton.

Hope you enjoyed your night Lisa!

Hello and happy Sunday!
It just came to my attention that I hadn't uploaded anything this year yet! Its been a very quick and jam packed beginning of the year in my personal life but not so much action on the event front.
BUT now that March is well and truly underway there is plenty to come! I have some really fun events coming up this year that I'm super excited to create and share with everyone.

Please reach out if you're in need of someone to throw together a well planned and beautifully executed event this year! I am so keen to help people bring to life the weddings/parties/events etc that they dream of without them having to worry about a thing ☺️

Last night I put together a lovely BBQ dinner for a casual family party to celebrate Daniels graduation from University! Such a special occasion and deserving of a little celebration, (and I’m not just saying that because he happens to be my husband!), and how nice to be able to gather with family and friends again! 👨🏼‍🎓❤️🎓

I thoroughly enjoy throwing together even the simplest of events, so if you are the opposite and want someone to take all the work out of an event for you shoot me a message and let me lift the load for you! 🎉🎉

Yesterday we celebrated Luke & Jessica’s wedding day! After 2 postponements due to lockdowns, they were understandably tired of planning and replanning weddings, so I stepped in to take the pressure off their hands and organise everything for them!
They tied the knot in an intimate elopement ceremony at the beautiful Melbourne Zoo, and after a grey and rainy morning the sun came out just in time for the ceremony to start and stayed out for their celebrations to continue.

What made the day even more special is that they are my brother and sister-in-law 🥰
It was my honour to act as their wedding planner and day-of coordinator!

Congrats Luke and Jess I wish you a lifetime of happiness together! ❤️❤️

When lockdown gives you serious entertaining withdrawals, what’s an event planner to do but practice grazing boards!? With only 3 household members though, we’ll be grazing for a few days 😅😋😍

I’ve wanted to be an event planner for a long time, until I finally got the courage to take the plunge and get qualified. As soon as I was, I registered my business and decided to take another plunge and put it out there. Timing wasn’t great though, as I only got to do a very small number of events before covid reared it’s ugly head again and caused all these lockdowns! So now most if not all of the events I had lined up for the remainder of the year are no longer happening.
It’s disappointing for me, but even more so for the people who are missing their celebrations.

I so appreciate everyone’s support so far, and while we wait for these restrictions to end it would be great if you could continue to share my pages with people and like/follow so that when we are free again I can get back to doing what I love to do, and help people create their long overdue events!

Sending love to everyone battling through yet another rough year 💙🌸💜

Just a little note, FYI 🥰

20/07/2021

Throwback to a simpler time when there were no restrictions and weddings were ten times easier to organise!!
My thoughts go out to everyone having to scramble to reschedule weddings and events, some for the second or third time, during yet another lockdown!

As soon as we are able to plan celebrations freely again please contact me if I can be of any assistance!
I’m itching to get back in the game ✨

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday!

I hope everyone is coping okay in our current lockdown, I know it’s a difficult time for everyone and we’re all keeping our fingers crossed that these restrictions ease ASAP!

My thoughts are with everyone who has had to cancel or postpone a wedding or event during this lockdown!

Are you facing the prospect of planning an event during a stressful time in the world? Having to start over with a postponed event? Got an event coming up you’re overwhelmed with once the restrictions ease?
Look no further! Please don’t hesitate to reach out and I can help you plan and pull off that dream wedding or event and give you a well earned break from the stress!

💙🌸💜

Last night was Bonnie’s surprise 30th birthday, and what a wonderful night it was!
Birthday girl had no idea or suspicions which is always the goal with a surprise party!

Loved creating this set up 😍
Hope you had a great night, Bonnie!

Had a great time putting together this Birthday BBQ for Lisa’s 20th birthday dinner. Her last birthday was spent in lockdown so thankfully this year was more of a celebration!

If you missed out on an event last year due to lockdowns or restrictions why not celebrate harder in 2021!?
Get in touch to discuss your next event and I will take all the stress and effort out of it for you 💕
