They have such a great range of bridesmaid dresses that it was hard to not find one we like. The price was a bit out of the range we were looking for but they had a sale which knocked off a bit of the price and I was able to use a voucher that I had for another of the dresses. They organised to have a piece of sample material sent out to me as we would have to wait for the dresses. Once the dresses came in they contacted us straight away and I was able to pick them up. The dresses fit perfectly so we didn’t need to use them for alterations.

Was a bit disappointing on the guys side of things. We rang and made a booking for the 3 boys (DH, BM and GM) to go and look at suits and try them on as we knew exactly what we wanted. When we got there the lady was busy with someone else so we had to wait, it was only when the manager from the girls side came over that things happened. They fitted the boys and were going to order ties for the boys unless we told them other wise. We ended up finding ties so rang them and told them not to worry about it. A week later we got a call saying the ties were in. The boys went for their final fitting and pick up on the Wednesday before the wedding, they had details down wrong, DH was down for a cravat instead of a tie and the shirt was too short on DH. Our BM also had to go to the warehouse to pick up his vest cause they got the wrong size in. The suits look fantastic on the day but there were a few too many stuff ups for my liking.

We booked the executive spa suite and yes it was expensive but it was a beautiful room and it was so nice to wind down in the spa after a long day. There was a bottle of champagne in our room as well as a card congratulating us which was a lovely touch. Breakfast the next morning was lovely as well. We are thinking of going back on our 1st year anniversary.

So happy with our car choice. We got a 7 seater which was able to take the boys and his parents and then come back and get us girls plus my parents plus stay for photos. Very friendly service and clearly love cars. Even though they had to travel to get to us, they were still cheaper than local companies.

Such a cute little boutique and gorgeous dresses. They pulled out a dress that I would never have picked off the rack and I fell in love with it straight away. The ladies were never pushy but lovely and helpful from the first visit to the final pick up. I absolutely love my dress and had a very good wedding dress shopping experience with them even though I was sick.

Debbie was such a pleasure to deal with. She was very quick with a response from the initial email and at the meeting was very helpful and constructive. I had taken in some pictures and she showed me some that she had worked with before and also gave me some ideas on what would work with our main flowers that we liked and what wouldn’t. She was never forceful with her opinion at all. She wrote up a quote and we booked her the next day. Her prices, I thought, were quite reasonable as well. Final discussions 10 days prior to the wedding, she was happy to make the change that I requested and I trusted her completely. When I saw the flowers for the first time, I was blown away. I couldn’t have imagined anything better. They were beautiful. She also included a wrist wishing thing that was made in our colours which I thought was a nice touch. They delivered the flowers to my parents place and then also delivered the boys flowers to the inlaws place as well. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone, her arrangements are amazing. Very talented.

We were so happy with our invitations, from the initial meeting, to the back and forth discussions regarding design and wording, to the finished product. They were exactly what we were after and the bonus was they were so much cheaper than other invitation places we had received quotes from. It made being able to have beautiful invitations a possibility.

I spent ages looking for the right necklace and finally found it here. They have a great selection of bridal jewellery and reasonably priced too. The service isn't brilliant but their products are

Cannot express how much I am in love with our photographer. We knew even before we got engaged who would be our photographer as we had seen her work before. Her photos were everything we could have hoped for. She was fun on the day and made everyone relaxed. Our photos capture everything we wanted them too and we have had so many wonderful comments about how gorgeous our weddings photos are. Her packages are fantastic too and the way things are presented is just beautiful.

The registry itself worked really well however the service left a little to be desired. We booked in an appointment but when we arrived there was only one girl in homewares so we had to wait until she could find someone to cover her and then she could sign us up for the program. We had a similar situation when it was time to check out the scanners and start scanning. Once we had done that though it was smooth sailing. It was really easy to scan the things we wanted, we didn’t have any problems at all and we think it made it a lot easier for our guests. Some of the items we scanned for our registry were no longer in stock when our guests went to get them though which was disappointing even though we only scanned once the invites were sent. Overall an easy experience.

I do not handle high heels at all and my mum had told me not to wear thongs which put me in a rather big predicament to try and find a nice pair of flat or relatively flat shoes. After searching for ages I found a pair of gorgeous shoes! They were stunning. A really small kitten heel, closed toe and in ivory. A local shop that stocked them unfortunately didn’t have the right size in the colour I wanted but I was able to try a different colour on so knew the shoe size. Called up Lily Rose and asked them to put them on hold for me. My DH went up and got them that day and they were perfect, exactly what I was after. They were really comfortable during the day and just looked lovely.

Could not have been happier with our choice of venue. From the initial meeting they have been fantastic. The venue is amazing and perfect for a cocktail wedding and the food! Our guests are still raving about the food, it was delicious and there was so much of it. The ceremony was set up perfectly and everything went off without a hitch thanks to their amazing staff who were always on the lookout. Our experience of the wedding (lead up and on the day) was just fantastic. We now want someone we know to get married there so we can enjoy the venue and the food from a guests perspective!
