Another Jen that we were dealing with for our wedding. As with any Jen's, they are such awesome people! Her shop just happened to be 10 mins away from where we lived and made it even easier to discuss flowers and 'lushness'. As we styled the wedding with more 'greenery' in mind to complement the flowers, Jen and her team were able to give us the very idea that we envisioned. Jen and her team of 10 worked tirelessly on the day and in sync with the BellsNWhistles people to get the styling exactly as planned. Jen even had to make us 3x2 meter willow hearts from scratch to give us the idea for the wedding we had styled, to this date we still have got the willow hearts as souvenirs and use them for special occassions. Since the girls and I were staying in the ceremony area, we got to see Jen and her 'infamous' RED boots and her girls in action, and even though they were under the hammer the entire time it still didn't stop them from having fun on the day. They surely do enjoy what they do in creating the best setting for every girl's dream wedding!

I've used Sandra for alot of events since before the wedding because she does such a fantastic job at giving just the right amount of make to bring the natural beauty. On the day, not only did she bring her amazing skills, she was able brought her love and laughter. And helped keep everyone's nerves calm on the day. Sandra stayed back throughout my ceremony to make sure that my makeup was perfect for every single photo especially after all the crying during the ceremony!

My husband was set on having a few string players at the ceremony after he realised how much impact their sound had from a previous wedding we went to. However finding the right type of players that presents themselves as well as they play proved to be a challenging task as well. We found Diamond Strings to be very detailed orientated in both their music and their style. They made sure they had matching outfits to their playlists stand and chairs even! When it came to music selection, Mel had more than enough knowledge and experience in letting us know how each song would play out specially when we had a specific song we wanted them to learn for the exchange of the vows. They were more than happy to accommodate every little thing we were after. Their music was just absolutely heavenly!

We first met Damien and Nicole on the sydney wedding expo 2 years before our wedding and they already sold us with their extremely ingenius and captivating information pack. They put so much thought into the little details in presenting their work and in what they do. Because of the fact that they enjoy what they do, it made so easy for us to get along with them, talk wedding and the lot! It also helps that they were such an easy going people and very upbeat in nature. Most of the time during the wedding, we didn't even notice our photographers and our videographers around but somehow they managed to produce 1,500 worth of good shots, capturing all the emotions on the day.

Where do we even start? From the moment Jen answered our enquiries about wedding styling on a Sundary morning, we knew we had made the right choice. (That and the fact that BellsNWhistles has been on the ABIA award top 5 year after year) As my husband and I work crazy long hours, Jen and her team easily accomodoated us and was able to meet with us at odd hours (and even weekends) to discuss styling and wedding planning. They brought our vision into a reality and worked tirelessly leading up and especially during the day of the wedding (laboring through 24 straight hours of non-stop work). As we were very big on the finer details of the wedding, BellsNWhistles helped us find the right suppliers and plan all of these details to a tee, from wedding invites that had to be carved onto a wood, boxes for these invitations, table slates for the reception, to sourcing out the right dress/suits for the bridal party. They worked so well with capturing every single detail we had in mind for the wedding and all the preparations for it that on the day, it couldn't have turned out any better. They left no stone unturned and help us tick our checklist and save us money in the process! From the 90 handwritten table slates, to the custom made messages in a bottles, not a day passes that we were glad we had Jen and her team helping us out throughout it all! Most of the time we were being told to keep the costs down rather than the other way around (inside joke-what's your budget? lol). They were such a blessing for a couple like us who had such a big idea/vision but such little time to organise it all.

These guys are just absolutely awesome! Aside from the fact that they had such great customer service dealing with us with all our enquiries for the wedding, their instagram printer product basically sells itself. It was such a great concept and hit with all the guests on tthe day and had all the bells and whistles of a photobooth without the need for such a big setup. Definitely a plus for wedding reception where space is an issue.
