Last Sunday week, David and I got hitched. For my normal inspiration Monday post, I'd thought I'd share some of the inspiration behind my wedding.
On Wednesday, I'll post a few pictures from the actual wedding. On Friday, I'll reveal why it took me a couple of weeks to Blog again.

My wedding was an Alice in Wonderland falls down the rabbit hole into the 70's with a bit of a twenties twist. I was inspired by things I love. Alice in Wonderland, vintage aprons, tea-cups, the Tasmanian Country Women's Association and the seventies. The wedding invitations were wonderful cheesy seventies cards with a couple gazing at each other over daisies. Our cake topper (above) was also from the seventies and several people commented on how much the male in the topper really looked like David!

It was lots of fun. Wise Owl my friend and guest said it was 'the grooviest wedding she had ever been to and she felt as if she was in Carnaby street.'
My friend, Artschool Annie spent several days helping me to construct towers of teacups and make flower baskets etc.
I normally wear Coco and Shalimar for fragrance but I do also love Daisy and this was my perfume of choice for the wedding. It summed the wedding up to me - sweet, simple and joyful.
