January 2010 – Alannah Rose

Alannah Rose {wedding} ~ Sarah & Stephen ~ Deco Lace Wedding Invitations And Stationery

I’ve got quite a line up of gorgeous client weddings to share with you this year, and I’m thrilled to start with the fabulous wedding of Sarah & Stephen.

Sarah & Stephen first came to me in September 2008 and we created their Save the Date cards in our Gorgeous Deco Lace Design.

We then worked on creating the wedding invitations and amazing stationery suite in the same theme for their wedding day last year. The results I’m sure you’ll agree we’re stunning, so many beautiful details pulled together under one common theme – Black & White Vintage.

We assisted Sarah with the printing and design of the order of service cards, Sarah then assembled them into these gorgeous fans for guests to use at the ceremony.

Behind The {scenes} Of Alannah Rose

life, media and press

I talk a lot about the business side of things at Alannah Rose, but today I thought I’d share something on a more personal level.

Some of you know we’ve been renovating for a couple of years now, it’s not been an easy task, with two small children under feet and a fast growing business! Many a day has been spent navigating around my husbands projects or occupying the children so he can get on with the task at hand. On saying that, we’ve loved every minute of it, and have enjoyed watching a green and yellow (yes!) 60’s house transform into a loved family home.

When the Herald Sun contacted me and asked if they could run a renovation story on us we were thrilled, the results were published in last weeks Herald Sun Saturday Home Magazine lift out, images below.

Our house is by no means finished, we’ve still got bedrooms, bathrooms, and a play room to go and there’s still furniture that needs updating and so on – but isn’t that part of the journey of owning a home? We’re currently working on the main bedroom and a cubby house for the girls which is almost complete – watch this space! xx

Alannah Rose {party} – A Little Bird Party On It’s Way

alannah rose parties, baby, life, parties

My little lala bird turns 5 soon – where did that time go – she started school this week, so grown up!

I’ve started the plans for her party, she’s chosen the lala bird party invitations – she’s been saying for months “I’m having a bird party” so sweet!

Here’s a sneek peak of the colour theme I’m working on – soft pinks, a hint of red, birds, polkadots and hearts.

Now is the perfect time to be looking for things that are red with valentines day just around the corner, you can find little heart elements to tie in the theme.

Savvy shoppers keep an eye out for the last of the christmas decorations on sale – I picked up these red bird decorations at 75% off.

I’m also keeping an eye on the easter eggs starting to appear in stores which will tie in nicely with the bird theme.

Stay tuned early March to see the final product.
