Cloud nine

June 3, 2008 | Leave a Comment

One of our regular site viewers has the most amazing (and downright cutest) wedding gift idea for her hubby to be …. It involves a beautiful smell and balloons…prepare for goosebumps galore!

She bought her hubby-to-be a new cologne as pre-wedding gift, which she will sending down with one of her friends on the morning of the wedding. Sweet, but here’s the cutest part. Attached to the cologne, she’s adding 9 helium balloons and attaching a little note saying “see you on cloud nine” - How adorable! **dammit, I just got those goosebumps again**

Im sure he’s going to love it and probably shed a few tears! I hope you take lots of pics “Mizz L” - send them to us, we can’t wait to see!

Featured Photographer: Brenda Wardall

“Planning your big day is a daunting task but once you have chosen the right people to work with you can relax - for a while! I feel so lucky to be involved with such special, happy days and am extremely aware of the responsibility in being entrusted to capture these great memories. Photographing weddings is not just about documenting the day and having a permanent record. It is about catching the moments as well as the character and feeling of the day so that they can be held onto and treasured for years and generations to come. My personal photography style has been described as ‘reportage’. My pictures are very honest, natural and uncontrived – a description which funnily enough could very well match the character of my clients!”

Perfect venue for a girls night out

May 24, 2008 | 3 Comments

I found this fabulous venue while doing some research on bachelorette parties. Its really fab-u-lous and and the perfect place to host a great girls night out.

Movida, is located on Rivonia Crossing (Sandton darling) and has everything you need to plan the perfect bachelorette party, it even has a wide screen television, where you can watch those soppy wedding movies with your girls. The best part is that Movida will custom create packages for all Bachelorettes, Kitchen teas and Hen Parties, allowing the bride (and her girls) to enjoy a classy and safe girls night out.
