Friday News Roundup

Haven’t we had a wonderful week full of inspired weddings? I’m running a little more than usual at the moment while I prepare all the behind the scenes work for the launch of our new site- I’m sure you’ll forgive me with all the pretty pictures and wonderful stories that have been shared! Lots of tidbits of news to end the week with today so we definitely had the need for a news roundup!

On that note my “Out Now” is coming next week!

Our Shoes Of Prey competition where you can win a $345 gift voucher to design your dream shoes is closing next Wednesday, Entry is open worldwide (so hooray everyone in the US and UK can enter for once!) so if you haven’t entered, do it soon!

Two fun Iphone applications launched this week! Tiffany & Co launched a fun engagement ring app (though personally I think the rings are perfect for any occasions, though Mr Polka still won’t bite when I keep sending him pretty ones from my phone!) Download it here.

Also one of my favourite US florists Nancy Liu Chin launched her app this week too- it’s full of blog posts, flower advice (for the Northern hemisphere) and real wedding photos! Download it here.

Feather & Stone are still running their fantastically creative engagement shoot competition. Check it out here. The winning couple will get to spend 2+ hours shooting time with Feather and Stone, and will receive 30 fully edited High Resolution photos on DVD (for you to share and print to your heart’s content) and an online slide-show.  This prize is worth $550, so definitely one worth entering.

White Designs have launched their brand new website with lots of video samples to swoon over! The website also launches the White Designs “Signature” collection, their new premium cinematography service. The Signature service is a new option for White Designs brides, it’s shot on the new DSLR systems and packaged with unlimited options- including unlimited coverage, unlimited crew and unlimited editing hours.

Teardrop Weddings (Yummy wedding invitations that will leave you craving for more!) want to create some brand new invitations inspired by Australian & New Zealand brides! They’re looking for brides to submit ideas to them and each week they’ll choose a winner and create an invitation! The winner will have design inspiration turned into an invitation, showcased on the Teardrop Weddings blog and will receive a 10% discount off their invitations! Send your inspiring ideas to inspireus at teardropweddings.com and let me know if you win!

Last, but not least! Keep checking our Events Calender for great events coming up! The Little White Wedding Company is partnering up with the stunning Sunshine Coast venue The Plantation to host The Luxury Wedding Soiree on the 18th of July. There are no set stalls here, instead the event is designed to be interactive and allow guests to be completely inspired. Some of my favourite Queensland suppliers are a part of the event and if you’re getting married in Queensland it’s a perfect one to check out! Visit the website here.
