The Occasional Word

Style Sheet - Sunshine Love

Happy Wednesday everybody. I just find it crazy how fast time is flying by at the moment - I mean can you beleieve how close it is now till Christmas?! I'm determined to make the most of every minute here in the lead up to Christmas with loads of new exciting things on the horizon for Red Creative.

This morning I though I'd share this little number with you - I was inspired by all the gorgous colours showing up in fashion at the moment. Paired with a dove grey it's actually quite sophisticated don't you think?

How to pull off this look? I think the key is to use your punchy colours with restraint but don't shy away from them altogether. Combine with some more rustic elements for a paired back look or lots of white for a more contemporary spin. The charcoal silk pintuck cloths from Insphire would be perfect for this combined with various white ceramic or cut glass pieces overflowing with your favourite coloured blooms. And of course don't forget a candy bar! 

Wedding Signage

When it comes to weddings we're all about making sure your guests have the most enjoyable time possible and that they feel as though you've taken care of every detail because you care about them.

One of the easiest ways to acheive this is through the use of signage. Wedding day signage is so important and often gets overlooked. The reality is couples often spend hours and hours thinking of little details that get missed on the day because no-one communicated the information to the guests. Oh, we were meant to take one of those home? You wanted us to write on that? The candy bar wasn't meant to be open untill after cake cutting? WHOOPS!!

At Red Creative we make sure that we talk our clients through the signage that might be required for the day from direction signs, to menus, it's important that you cover all of your bases and that the signage you choose compliments your overall style scheme.

For the DIYers out there you can have signage printed at the same time as your stationery to ensure a consistent look, hire pre-printed signage or alternatively look at hiring a beautiful blackboard or mirror and signwrite it. For hire items check out Centrepiece's great range.

Style Sheet - Blossom & Babies Breath

Whew - what a weekend!! We had the pleasure of woring with two lovely brides to style their weddings this weekend and now we're in need of a bit of a break but with two corporate functions this week and loads of stationery and favours to get out it's full steam ahead!

While we're waiting on pics from the last few functions I thought I'd share a little pretty. Sadly the blossom is coming to an end but save this one up for next year. 

A pretty mix of smokey pastels. Combine soft white drapes and floaty overlays with garlands of babies breath and towering cherry blossom in white porcelain containers. *sigh*

Have a great Monday everyone :)
