A Beach Wedding

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

Sand between the toes, the sound of the waves rolling in and the smell of salt in the air – what a beautiful setting to be married in. Our latest wedding stationery range ‘Shelly Beach‘ is perfect for a stylish beach wedding, a simple yet classy design. We are thinking a wedding reception incorporating gorgeous tones of blue set against old weathered whitewash. Have fun gathering old bottles, sea shells, beads and twine, then get creative and use them for table settings, bombonieres or even at the ceremony location.

Vintage Lace

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

This inspiration board was created around our ‘Vintage Lace‘ wedding invitation, which I thought suited a vintage inspired summer afternoon wedding glowing in a palette of sage green, tangerine orange, peach and cream. Imagine a warm summer afternoon filled with wide brimmed hats, the clinking of glasses and a game of croquet. I love the idea of a lavish dinning table and chairs setup in a country style garden where an afternoon gathering could turn into a romantic night with the addition of some lanterns and fairy lights hanging in trees.

French Romance

Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

One of my favourite wedding themes at the moment is the beautiful and romantic french provincial wedding. Our latest stationery designs ‘Isabella‘ has been inspired by vintage birdcages and decorative details that adorn a french wedding. Think vintage lace, chandeliers, vintage brooches, birdcages, fancy script fonts, draping material, ornate frames…with all these gorgeous items you will leave your guests drooling!

Real Wedding – Camille & Barry

Monday, March 15th, 2010

The lovely Camille and Barry celebrated their stunning garden wedding in November 2009 and I have some of their beautiful photos to share with you. They had a small intimate wedding at a heritage listed homestead – Faversham Homestead, in Mundaring Perth.

Camille and Barry came to us last year searching for their perfect wedding invitation and could not quite find the right thing on our website, so they approached us to create a custom design. They decided on midnight blue for the bridesmaids dresses and wanted to carry that colour through to their wedding stationery, which was to have a formal, garden wedding theme.

Camille and Barry had us use their design to create a seating chart which they had beautifully framed and positioned on a stand for guests to see where they were to be seated.

They also wanted to have a three sided menu / table number which was to sit on each table – one side had the table names, which were all creatively named after flowers, another side had the menu selection and the other had the guests names seated on that table.

Individually named bomboniere boxes were presented on the tables for each guest.

Camille and Barry told us “We loved every single moment of the day and spent the whole day laughing.”

Congratulations Camille and Barry on a stunning wedding day, thank you so much for sharing it with us!

Real Wedding – Clare & Jason

Friday, December 11th, 2009

I have the pleasure of sharing a simply stunning wedding we were fortunate enough to print the stationery for. Clare and Jason celebrated their wedding in October this year at the beautiful heritage-listed Silvermere in the Blue Mountains. They chose to invite their guests to a beautiful garden wedding with invitations from our Lilianna range.

The very talented Gemma Clarke captured the beautiful moments of  Clare and Jason’s special day.

Juliet

Saturday, November 28th, 2009

If you love the ever popular vintage style wedding why not choose the ‘Juliet‘ wedding invitation which sets the tone for a shabby chic style wedding with its elegant, pretty and romantic  style. Combine with a vintage style dress and antique style flowers to match. The wonderful thing about this kind of wedding is that you can save plenty of money by scouring charity shops and garage sales for interesting ‘old style’ accessories to finish the overall look off.

One Invite – Endless Options!

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

At Poppiseed Designs we recognise that everyone has their own individual style and taste and this is no more apparent then at their wedding.  We endevour to have a large range of wedding invitations and update our range regularly, but we can never have the perfect invitation for everyone. For this reason we are happy to be flexible with our designs and have a colour chart available with a large range of colour options in which our invitations can be printed. We also have a font list available to help find the perfect matching font to go with the style.

One invitation we have found to be very popular and very regularly requested in another colour is our ‘Fiorella‘ design. So I thought we might put together some colour inspiration boards to demonstrate how one of our invitations can easily altered to suit so many different wedding styles.

Feeling Blue
The use of soft blue and grey creates a romantic and elegant country feel.

Cherry Blossom Wedding Theme

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

With all the beautiful cherry blossoms on display at the moment I was inspired to put together a post on a cherry blossom themed wedding. Imagine being joined in marriage beneath the delicate blossoming trees, followed with a romantic garden reception decorated with paper laterns and hand fans as guests sip on fresh guava and lime cocktails.
