The french are famous for their food, their fashion and everything good in life. C'est la vie! Inspired by the good life, we created a French Black theme with a classic finish. Here are some fabulous pictures which 39 East took of our work.

Themes (Part 1) - Whimsical Pastels

Source: Elizabeth Anne Designs

Finding your theme can be quite a challenge. And it is just because there are so many to choose from. The easiest to start with is probably using colour themes. So you find a few hues and put them together through your deco, flowers, outfits, stationary and such. 


When considering more elaborate themes, you pick the style you like and fit the colours into that. It can start from deciding on an era such as 60's vintage or a venue influenced theme like a spring garden, shanghai red, mad-hatters and so much more. These ones play around more with creating a character around the wedding and are always more dramatic and interesting. 


In the spirit of themes, we played around with 2 contrasting effects - Whimsical Pastels (Part 1) and French Black (Part 2). 


Whimsical Pastels
Pastels are a combination of pretty colours and as we styled the settings, we could not help but throw in some pom poms, butterflies and gold to create a whimsical theme.

Whimsical themes are for the fun, playful and quaint couple. 
So before deciding on your theme, have a think about who you both are, characters, hobbies, loves and un-loves. Your theme will surface from there...


Special thanks to:
a)39 East for photography
b)Ee-Lyn from We love Yu for dresses
c)Melissa Wang from Wonderland for the Space and furniture
d)Pauline Cheong (The Wedding Stylist) for stationary

Guess what we found - Vintage typewriter

Source: The Wedding Stylist

It was right under our noses all this time! We have been in search for a vintage typewriter since september last year but could not find a suitable one. There were lots in the market - small ones, big ones, un-usable ones, refurbished ones, coloured ones and black ones. To be honest, we were undecided... 

Until, we found this little gem in the storeroom of Caroline's parents home. Surprise surprise... it belonged to her grandfather, kept in a grey suitcase-like cover. A little rusty but in usable, tip-top condition. Of course, none of us knew how to work it, but we will soon figure it out! It is currently being refurbished and we are thinking of adding perhaps a little dash of colour to bring back life to this forgotten treasure. A new mission - to type wedding wishes for our couples! 

If you are wondering what part in a wedding does a typewriter have, look at these pictures. Voila!

Red Hues

Different people pick different hues for their weddings. This season, red has reached our top charts. Strong, bold and fierce, this colour stands out but yet can be seductively subtle when added in the right proportions. 

We found some lovely pictures to share... 

Enjoy,

Note: we brought in 11 boxes of props!
