In January 2018, I decided to go out on my own and start my own wedding and event planing business. It was scary, and despite being in the hospitality industry for nearly 15 years, I wasn’t entirely sure who my ideal client was.
However I did know that I needed some incredible images to show the world what I could do, and what I was about. Fast forward 8 months, the website was being built, I was drumming up hype and my very first styled photoshoot was underway.
The only thing I knew is that I wanted to be different. There were a lot of other event and wedding planning businesses out there who were all doing the same cookie cutter kind of thing, and I wanted to go against the grain. Black. And lots of it. Even today I still try to incorporate a little bit of black into my work because to me, it signifies luxury, and it’s actually what I’m known for.
By chance I found the incredible dark and moody jazz bar Duke of George that had just opened, and I set to work creating something that would set me apart.
I absolutely love balancing the old and the new, and this old brush and broom factory backdrop, with black glossy tables dripping with pink and gold was just the ticket.

Crystal Glassware
Nothing quite says elegance like beautiful crystal glassware. Classic and timeless, cut crystal is definitely not going anywhere anytime soon and I just love drinking my Friday night gin and tonic out of mine!

Top Dup Donuts
Not everyone like cake. I mean we have to seriously assess our friendship with those people…but I love how couples are starting to thinkof different sweet things for their guests, whether they be instead of cake or they be favours or gifts. The branding or monogramming options are endless as well!
These mouth watering donuts from Top Dup are actually near my house…very dangerous!

Blush Napkins
I absolutely love how coloured napkins can elevate a tablescape and these blush pink linen napkins have such a beautiful texture. I also love how they fall on the plate in the very popular knot tie.
