Gunnedah South School Winter Ball

In a small town like Gunnedah

I am totally AMAISED at our Community Spirit!

Our Gunnedah South School is having a fund raiser tonight

and decided to host a 

Winter Ball.

It took 2 weeks for the tickets to be sold, there were another 10 tables quickly added

and then they sold!

Over 300 people are attending tonight's ball to raise funds for the school.

Its very nice to see. 

I'm not much of a socialite myself, I much prefer to have my fun helping to decorate an event and then go home rather than party on all night, and I really enjoy having this roll.

I feel very privileged to be involved in some small way at events such as this one.

So tonight's event was organised by a very dedicated and frantic couple of volunteers from the School.

We worked together to help bring their theme to life.

We have the ceiling fairy lights.

(These have been up now since Mid March and this will be their last event in the hall this year!)

A gorgeous way to create an intimate atmosphere

Simple Ceiling lights can be done at just about any venue.

If you would like something like this for your next event, just pop instore and we can work out what you will need.

To frame the stage I erected a chain of pearl arch in the colours that represent the event.

We used the black rectangle table clothes

Light Blue Satin Table Runners

Silver Organza Table Runners

Round Mirrors.

Large Glass Vases

Glass Marbles

Black Twisted Willow

LED Battery Operated Lights up the Willow Branches

(They aren't turned on though.... I was a little early with my photos!)

At the entrance to the ball

we made just a simple air arch in the theme colours...

We had to sqeeze it in, but it looked lovely!

If anything here looks like something you might like for your event,

please don't hesitate to come on by and we can talk turkey!!

the choice sometimes if far greater than our budget! 

The perfect way to 

"Have your cake and eat it too"

is the DIY Wedding!

Danielle and Charlie chose the amaising venue

of the Gunnedah Race Track.

A beautiful green outlook

with a simple undercover room and attached kitchen and bar

perfect for those that would like the

"Outdoor Wedding" feel, but with the security of undercover!

6 Silk Ficus trees

Metres of white tulle

For the purpose of the ceremony

the chairs were lined up with an isle....

The tables were set ready to be put into place

The chairs are covered with Black Lycra Covers

and the Soft Pink Organza Sashes around the chairs

The tables have the Rectangle Black Table Cloth

with Soft Pink Organza Table Runners

The Bridal Table was set up the end of the room

with a shorter back drop

all draped with Soft Pink Organza Draping

and white LED Lights

 Some photos from the reception...

 

Danielle saved so much money by decorating her wedding herself

using items hired from Enchanted Events & Balloons

The items all come with full colour instructions

and phone assistance if required

If things get too difficult, I also have an emergency service

which has never been needed!

The instructions are very clear

A Wedding with GRUNT - Kootingal Bowling Club - Black Theme

This was a wedding i did a couple of weekends ago...

It was for some friends,

it was a kinda Do-It-Yourself

(But the Matron of Honour and Bride were actually function co-ordinators

from Newcastle, so they knew what they were doing when i say Do-It-Yourself)

But i did some of the special "Wedding Elegance" signature decor.

The wedding party was headed with the Grooms Harley

and another bike of a friends..

So this just set the theme..

The ceremony was in the beer garden of the

Bendemeer Hotel....

But what a beer garden,

It was so beautiful down by the McDonald River

The Bride wore the most gorgeous dress

with black beading, and the groom had the "Gangster" look...

Back at the reception at the Kootingal Bowling Club

it just went to show you can dress up anything!!!

It looked spectacular and really reflected the theme of the wedding.

With a welcome into the reception with

Ivory Wisteria Trees..

The Arabian Night Canopy had the black draping through it

With the matching Bridal Table with Black Draping

and Black Table Runner.

The cake was so unique....

And not just the topper.

Ive never seen and oval Wedding Cake before..

Made by the marvelous Sue Plank from Tamworth

Isnt the topper just perfect!!

The guys got together to do the ceiling canopy

which im pretty sure they enjoyed.

There was lots of laughing that's for sure!!!

Wedding Elegance provided the Black Table Clothes

and Black Lycra Chair Covers

with the Peacock Organza Sashes...

The couple chose the 12: Square Mirror

which sat under the Hurricane Vase

all available from Wedding Elegance..

When the lights went out...

It really created that wonderful intimate atmosphere

For a perfect Wedding Celebration
