Oh yes! I have had an number of enquiries for all manner of vintage inspired pieces to top off your wedding looks. In my quest to compile a list of online boutiques I came across Madaboochoo (a crazy Bris-vegas name - ‘mad-about-you’?).

So if you are after a shrug, fascinator, pearls, shoes or frocks check this site out. Madaboochoo’s bridal range is coming soon but I’ve included only a few pics of suitable things below.

I just had to include this hat

My husband and I made up 6 Bali flags for our wedding in 2008. I bought the bright white flags on eBay and then had to search around on how to make the poles economically, with the right amount of bend and make them transportable. The ones for sale online are not cheap nor are the hire ones from places like Hendies Hire. I have to commend him for giving me some tips on erection - cough*

Bamboo poles are not transportable either, really.

I now have 6 white Bali flags (Umbul umbul) and curved Bali flag poles for hire. They are very easy to erect now the ingenious crafting work is done — thanks Kai.

If you are interested please drop me an email.

There are some talented people in Perth that you may want to check out for your wedding preparations.

Some vendors are affordable for most and some are probably only for the finance-blessed.

I must start with a photographer I stumbled across during my own wedding preparations earlier this year (2008). Her name is Samm Blake. I’m sure it’s the post-work filters she uses that make her ‘art’ exceptional. Her blog is a good place to check out her work; http://sammblakeblog.com/category/wedding-photography/

Unfortunately for some, Samm fits into the splurge category.
