"Working with a client on an invitation or stationery piece is always very exciting! Discovering their desires for their custom pieces and the ideas behind the final creations is always so inspiring. The journey is actually quite personal, as you learn details of a very special event that is about to unfold, and the possible small part you get to play in the overall magnificent production... the experience ignites a passion to satisfy the clients desires through the solidarity of teamwork directly with them, exploring and aiding their creational flair to bring their ideas and dreams to life!”

We were first contacted by Nikki & Brendon in their quest to source personalised glassware and special gifts for their Bridal Party Guests and family... after just a few emails with friendly and fun-loving Nikki, we were chatting like old friends...

 

Nikki & Brendon chose beautiful purple Singapore Orchids and White and Cream Roses as their flowers throughout their Wedding. Nikki’s Bridesmaids wore purple satin ankle length strapless gowns, and Brendon’s Groomsmen were dressed in black suits and shirts with matching purple ties, Brendon’s tie was of cream satin. Nikki’s stunning ivory and taupe Sincerity wedding gown featured a bead encrusted bodice with lace up back and train, and she wore funky suede boots that occasionally “peek-a-boo’d”, in reflection of Nikki and Brendon’s dream to one day make the move from the city to a large farm property - whilst also incorporating her deep love of Stevie Nicks!

 

A unity sand ceremony was included as a part of Nikki & Brendon’s marriage ceremony, engraved Wave Ceremony Glass Vases were filled with layers of black and white crystallised sand.

 

The reception featured black tablecloths with scattered rose petals, white lillies and purple Singapore orchids submerged in a water bowl with floating candles as centrepieces. Frosted white tea light glasses, some specially adorned with purple ribbon and the names of dearly departed who could not be there on their special day, were also chosen to decorate their reception room and to create a romantic candlelit ambience.

 

Clear acrylic place cards were engraved and colour-filled in deep purple for the individual guest names and featured a single lily blossom. In place of table numbers, Nikki & Brendon selected to have A5 clear acrylic table cards custom engraved with each of the tables guest list, and named after love-inspired song titles and lyrics from Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac music  (Nikki is a Stevie Nicks fan and wanted to incorporate "rock's enchanting goddess" into their special day), the engraved table names were colour-filled in deep purple, and featured a blossoming stem of lilies, and a meaningful love quote at the bottom of each one.

 

The overall theme... Black, Purple and White colours... Purple Singapore Orchids and Cream and White Roses  ... an occasional feature heart... a touch of Country & Sea and their intense love of music.

"I would like to sincerely thank Nat, Chris and the team at Engraving Plus for their unwavering support, help and encouragement in the lead up to our Wedding Day.

 

I found Nat and her family run business online when searching for suppliers to assist with our Wedding Ceremony & Reception needs. Nat has been an absolute pleasure to deal with and made our wedding preparations so much happier and easier!  If only more wedding suppliers were like this - there would be no Bridezilla's! (not that I was one hehe).

 

Nat provided us with:

* Engraved sand ceremony jars (and sand!) for our wedding ceremony

* Engraved individual place cards for guests at our reception

* Engraved table cards (which included table names, guests names and a little verse of love)

* Engraved wine glasses & beer steins which we used as thank you gifts for our bridal party and parents

* A really cute pewter teddy bear mug which she engraved for us as a gift for our page boy.

* A lot of tea light candle holders which so beautifully set the mood for a candle lit reception.

 

What a great find to be able to get all these beautiful products, from the one supplier at the best price! I was stoked and thought I was most excellent for finding her :-)

 

Nat was fantastic during the consultation process, listening to my dreams and idea's and sweetly providing her own thoughts and suggestions along the way. Together, we created some beautiful pieces which will become long lasting memento's of the happiest day of my life.

 

When I received our order from Nat, I was blown away by how carefully everything was packaged and was astounded at the quality of the workmanship involved in every single piece we ordered. Everything was so beautifully done!

 

The attention to detail was really impressive and it's refreshing to find that old fashioned personal customer service in this day & age. The pride in her business is evident and Nat is a great asset to her Industry.

 

Guests at our wedding also commented on the beautiful engraving products we had and made a point of telling us to pass on to Nat, what a fantastic job she and her team did.

 

Nat was an absolute pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend her and her family business to everyone.

 

Thanks for everything honey - you made this part of the journey a breeze for me. Keep up your beautiful work!

 

(now) Mrs Nikki Yetman”

Natache & Adrian first contacted us to provide engraved glassware and special gifts for their Bridal Party Guests and family. During a visit to the Engraving Plus store, Natache & Adrian spied the Engraved Stationery displayed in our show cabinet, which gave them an idea of creating their own menu/place cards for each guest at their Wedding.

 

They selected A6 sized 1.5mm clear acrylic stand with a 3mm clear acrylic cut base. The individual guest names were engraved on each menu and colour-filled in pink, and their event and wedding date were engraved at the bottom of the menu/place card and also colour-filled in pink.

 

Pink, white & cream roses were chosen for the featured flowers throughout their Wedding, and white orchids adorned the glass tower vase centrepieces. Natache’s Bridesmaids wore strapless light pink satin bustiers, featuring deep pink piping and ribbon sash, and matching ankle length skirt. Adrian and his Groomsmen were dressed in black suits with white shirts and cream satin vests & ties. Natache’s gorgeous flowing white strapless wedding gown featured an embroidered bodice and scattered Swarovski crystals.

 

The bomboniere for their guests were wrapped in light pink organza and an engraved mirrored acrylic heart charm, personalised with Natache & Adrian’s names and Wedding date, were attached  with a 3mm light pink satin ribbon.

 

The overall theme... Light Pink, Deep Pink, White, Cream & Silver colours... Pink, White and Cream Roses, White Orchids...

“You guys are impossible to fault! Even though our separate order of 2 engraved coin boxes weren't ready at the time of pickup with the menus, your team rectified the situation in 30mins. You've also provided quick and informative replies to our requests and even accommodated for our numerous changes... we take our hat off to you with your immense patience for a couple of mind changers like us. Our wedding menus are just stunning and really added the pop to our reception and the price left us with quite a bit of spare change. Can't wait till Christmas because we're heading your way again!

 

Warmest Regards,

Adrian & Natache"
