We were so excited to share the transformation of our Prahran store, from a concrete prison to a bridesmaid boutique with you that we thought there wasn’t much more to celebrate at our Prahran premises. Yet being sane and dull is not part of the Ava Madison genetic make up and after many discussions with various people in our gorgeous industry we all decided an opening night was well over due and as a result we have some new pics to share 🙂

It was a night full of lots of yummy food, gorgeous clients and the beautiful wedding industry professionals who all supported us in so many ways. Each VIP client received a goodie bag filled with cupcake samples by Splendid Servings, a mini wedding planning kit by A Lavish Affair, a gorgeous catalogue from Wedding List Co, a very stylish candy box compliments of A Lavish Affair and some chocolates for those sweet emergencies. We had such a ball chatting to clients and assisting them with choosing colours and dresses for their special day whilst we nibbled on a range of scrumptious sweets, and sipped champagne to the vocals of Peter Thornley, who serenaded guests with his smooth vocals.

Best not to ramble on for too long, which I am prone to doing, and show you the amazing pictures taken by Hybrid Imaging who did a fab job of taking these pics and mingling at the same time, now that’s talent 🙂

Kate Hill Flowers created a gorgeous arrangement of green and white to compliment our Ava Madison colours and spruce up the dessert table.

I am addicted to these cupcakes by Splendid Servings – never a dull moment when it comes to flavour and style.


Wedding List Co donated a door prize of two Royal Doulton Champagne flutes valued at $150.

And lastly, we would love to thank Polka Dot Bride and the Polka Dot team for all of their support in promoting the evening.
