Welcome to Fi Fy Fo Fum Designs' blog. On this blog we hope to provide you with fabulous inspiration for what ever event it is that you might be having. We will be asking our wonderful customers to provide you with insights into their events...what they did, where and how. We hope you enjoy it...feel free to leave us any comments or ideas.

To get the ball rolling I thought I would start with my wedding...enjoy!

Wedding: Fi & James
Theme: Modern Elegance
Colours: Raspberry and Candy
Great location right in the heart of the city.  We chose it for the wonderful classic architecture as well as the convenience for our interstate and international guests.
We hardly knew Lisa was there...she just blended into the background.  This meant she was able to capture some beautiful candid moments of us and our guests.
Flowers: Mimosa florist and lifestyle for the bouquets and family members for the reception flowers. We bought the roses from a wholesale nursery and this really helped keep the costs down. I wanted freesias in my bouquet and Lilli at Mimosa created a stunning bouquet combining these and the roses.
Invitations: Fi Fy Fo Fum Designs - Custom Design
We really wanted a design that was creative however it still needed to keep the formal aspect.  The invitation design carried through to the order of service, table numbers, menus, place cards and seating chart.
Celebrant: Jason McCheyne 
Jason created a wonderful service for us that really reflected our personalities.  It was relaxed, free flowing but still maintained the importance that this occasion represented.
Cake: The cake was made by my sister in law and my mum and I made the flowers to decorate it.
Top tip: A friend told us to take some time and stand back and watch everyone enjoying the reception. This was a great piece of advice and it is one of the best memories that we have. Having everything in the one place was also easy as it meant that we did not have to move venues and the celebration could continue without a big break.
