Marie & Nigel – 28th January 2012
Early December, we get a phone call from a lovely young woman named Marie. She tells us her and her fiancé Nigel want to get married on 28th January and needed some help. I closed my eyes and said a little prayer hoping she means January 2013...not 2012 - only 8 weeks away! I respond via email to Marie's request and offer them an obligation free consultation.

The Bells N Whistles Family
With my babys birth approaching (literally any day now!), I have been quite reflective and rather hormonal about things lately. This is a bit of what's running through my mind right now... Last week, I had a little chat at work with my staff. Of course, at BnW, we call them family meetings, because I just love the people who work with me - Allie, Vanessa and Jade are more...

Wedding TV
I really don't have much time to watch TV these days - the most I watch is an episode of Peppa Pig with my children before their bedtime. Usually, I am working late or at a wedding, and I hate not being able to keep up with shows, so I just don't bother. But we do have a TiVo and it records tv programs for us and also has this function where it records shows that it more...

Anthea & Dror – 8th December 2011
Where to start with this couple... It was February 2011. I get an email from Anthea with the subject line 'A wedding, a fabulous skeleton, & a little bit of magic...' I think I was in love from that moment! I believe in magic so it was nice for a bride to call on my magical powers, and over time, to believe in them! I met with Anthea and her mother Sue, more...

How to add a bit of wow to your stationery!
We believe your invite is the first sneak peak into your wedding by your guests, so why not make it as wow as possible. Tips: #1 Always work within the styling you have - it gives guests a taste of the style of wedding you are having and creates synergy with all elements and aspects of your wedding. #2 Try to do something a little bit different, a bit special. more...

Anita & Suraj – 9th December 2011
Anita and Suraj initially contacted BnW to enquire about the legalities of marriage. Having their wedding at home and keeping many traditional Hindu elements to their wedding, marrying under a Mandap with the traditional music playing (Tabla and Shanai). Instead of a Hindu priest, we used the services of a wonderful civil celebrant - Robyn Pattison more...

ABIA Awards – 2011
What a wonderful night. The Bells N Whistles team got frocked up and went out with style...in a limo of course! This was the first awards night we've attended so we were not sure what to expect, but I knew we'd worked hard and I wasn't overly concerned about winning - just improving! And improve we did. Up from last year, which is always good :) The results are more...
Amber Jaye & Mario – 17th December 2011
Our bride referred to her wedding as Wonderland and that was the understatement of the year! We were honoured to be part of Amber Jaye and Mario's wedding day and with Allie bursting at the seams over this wedding, I let her take the reins and run it, whilst I oversaw everything. Our first meeting with AJ was two weeks prior to her wedding day, we met at the Manly more...

Shireen & Daniel – 18th November 2011
Shireen and Daniel hired us months ago for their On the day Coordination. Until two weeks prior to their wedding, we hadn't had much contact at all. When we meet with Shireen and Daniel at their venue (Gap Bluff, Watsons Bay), we realised we were dealing with the worlds most chilled-out and relaxed couples. They were not fussed about much and trusted us completely more...
