The eclective VIP Night



The VIP evening, scheduled for Friday 09 September between 6 and 9pm in Adelaide, is the official launch of the inaugural curated bridal showcase that is the Eclective.

To kick off the showcase the VIP evening will give attendees an opportunity to experience some of Adelaide's most innovative businesses in action. Sample some of the amazing food by Let Them Eat, savoury and sweet morsels by the White House Kitchen and Lounge, keep hydrated with beer from the McLaren Vale Beer Company and little bubbles from Mayhem and Co. And we don't want to forget dessert on a night such as this so Steve Ter Horst Chocolatier will have divine chocolates to taste. Along with all of those delights, entertainment will include Lucky Seven Swing, The Voice of Transition and many more to keep the atmosphere alive.

Not only will you have an experience to hold onto but you will have your letterpress eclective ticket printed by the ink room as a keepsake from the event as seen in the photograph above. These are for VIP and online ticket sales only. VIP night tickets will be sold exclusively online, will not be available at the door and are limited to 150 so be sure to buy your's here today to secure your spot.

This is the opportunity to be the very first to experience these amazing vendors that have come together in one venue. It is destined to be a fantastic night and we can't wait!

Real Wedding - Deb James & Michael Matarazzo

On South Australia's Fleurieu Peninsula, Deb & Michael married on 29th January 2011 at the picturesque Waverley Estate in the beachside town of Port Elliot. In front of 125 guests they exchanged their vows on a warm, sunny afternoon. There's no denying that the fabulous photography by the very talented Pete Thornton from Event Imaging has perfectly captured the relaxed, happy and love-filled day. The gorgeous bride, in a magical cotton and silk blend Akira gown, was the definition of a glowing, thanks in-part to the makeup artist from Ocea Beauty Bar. There's no denying the love between Deb & Michael shines through in these photographs. We loved the colourful and casual flowers, the brides dress and the polaroid photo's taken by guests for the Bride & Groom as keepsakes. Congratulations Deb & Michael!

Western Australian brides-to-be now have the chance to make their wedding a unique event that stands out from the crowd thanks to first ever Wedding Upmarket, showcasing the best of the state’s wedding wares. Justine Barsley, the brains (and operational legs) behind the event couldn’t find Perth’s best artists and designers she’d heard so much about so set up the iconic Perth Upmarket three years ago where 50,000 punters now flock every year for the best of Perth’s designer wares at the quarterly event. Wedding Upmarket is a one-day, one-stop-shop showcasing the best of what Perth has to offer by way of wedding products including invitations and paper product, decorations and props, bombonniere, flowers, photography, gourmets, jewellery, stylists, couture and so much more.

Another Royal Occasion

Over the weekend Zara Phillips, granddaughter of The Queen, wed her Rugby player boyfriend Mike Tindall in Edinburgh, Scotland. Attended by The Queen & The Duke of Edingburgh, Prince Charles & Camilla, William & Kate, Prince Harry and Princess Eugenie and Beatrice, the ceremony was the first Royal wedding to be held in Scotland in almost 20 years. Zara chose a gown by one of The Queen's favourite couturiers, Stewart Parvin, and accessorised it with a full veil, tiara and Jimmy Choo shoes. The ceremony and reception was held in Cannongate Kirk's Holyroodhouse. I love Zara's full veil with the tiara. Very regal indeed!
