Moonlight & Whimsy News - October, 2010

Exciting times at Moonlight and Whimsy! Firstly I'd like to thank everyone for their support so far. Word has spread in 5 short weeks, we've welcomed almost 300 fans to our Facebook page! Orders have been flying out thick and fast - not only for weddings, but for parties and even gifts too! Keep them coming!

Yesterday we received confirmation that we would be displaying our wares at the "Planning Weddings" Bridal Expo in Redlands, Brisbane - January 2011. It's exciting to be taking what we do into the real world and to meet some wonderful new brides looking for original ideas. We can't wait!

New stock arrived last week - just as the weather in Brisbane turned apocalyptic - which meant that our planned outdoor lantern shoots did not go ahead. Never fear though - alternate options are in the works - and we have some gorgeous new products for you including retro polka-dot designs and HUGE 50cm lanterns too.

We've been working hard on three events coming up - one of which is a stunning Alice in Wonderland children's garden party, which we are all very excited about. I don't want to give too much away but it will feature custom-designed bunting from Giggleberry Creations, and a spectacular dessert buffet, as well as some stunning theming (of course) by Moonlight and Whimsy. I've been told that the Mad Hatter, The White Rabbit and the Red Queen will also make an appearance. What a lucky birthday girl!

Lastly - we're now taking submissions for our blog! Do you know of anyone who has had a creative or unique event? Or have you been to any weddings that were just that little bit off-beat and stepping away from tradition? Events that have been filled with vintage and/or retro ideas - or just plain whimsical? Or a DIY wedding that has been done spectacularly on a tight budget?

We want to hear from them!

Drop us a line at submissions@moonlightandwhimsy.com.au.

Until next time - live whimsically!
