After 12 years in business and styling over 1500 weddings, we are incredibly proud to have earned a great reputation in our industry!

Take a look at our gallery to see some of our previous work and the kind of princess magic we can style and create for your wedding day too!

I just so happened to fall (graciously and effortlessly!) into the wedding industry after styling my own wedding, only to find a niche in the market. I couldn’t find anyone who was, well, like me, I guess!

I’m not sure where it stems from, but I have a strong dislike for ANYTHING corporate! All the big companies I contacted, just didn’t seem to ‘get’ me! I was met with super professional emails, corporate looking invoices and paperwork, blah blah blah! This is the most important day of you life, and you need somebody who cares! Somebody who will be there when you are having a wobble about style or themes! Somebody who gets to know you, puts your mind at ease and yet, still delivers amazingggg service! And sooooo, my mantra was then born – a friendly, fun, personal service with styling & decor that is ‘Fit for a Princess’!

Now as I mentioned, I couldn’t be a lead princess alone, so bribed my besties (with tiaras and a cuuute uniform!) to come and work with me! So it will either be myself, Nat, Jem or Rach playing the lead Princess role for your wedding day, executing your decor and styling! You can find out a little more about each of us below…

Meet the Princesses…

Charlotte

LEAD Princess

Favourite princess…Anna

Now this is the part of the website I found most difficult - deciding on my favourite princess?! I mean, I named my entire business after them all, how do I pick just one?! However after much research (obviously catching up on allll the Disney films in my pjs with caaaake) I have decided on…Anna! And all I needed to do was Google…

“Anna is goofy, optimistic, loyal, and a hopeless romantic. She might not have the  elegance of royalty, but she has the pure and loving heart of a true princess. Sweet yet tenacious, Anna is a courageous and determined woman.”

I didn’t realise how similar we are until reading that! I am fiercely passionate about things I care about, and am extremely determined in everything I do! And as for Anna’s softer characteristics, I love with my whole heart, sometimes getting it wrong, but never giving up! 

After having a previous 10 year career in Retail Merchandising, I have a true passion for making things prettyyyy! My favourite things are tea & cake, bold colours and plants (of the fake variety - don’t ask me to keep a real plant alive!) However, and most importantly of all, I am momma to Ollie and Maisie Belle (yes, named after Princess Belle!) They are my absolute life. Everything I do is for them. They have shown me the true meaning of love and fairytale magic! I am so lucky to have the best job in the world!

Nat

LEad Princess

Favourite princess…Snow White

If I had to pick a princess I’m most like, I think it would have to be Snow White. Optimistic and carefree, protective and motherly. Multitalented and resilient are my biggest qualities...unfortunately no dwarves (although my kiddies may be mistaken for a few).

Mummy to 2 princesses and a little prince of my own, is how I met Charlotte (my biggest princess is already counting down the days til she can join us). She would tell me about her work and I was desperate to go along and see. And since then she hasn’t been able to get rid of me! 

I love what we do whether that’s being knee deep in sashes or adding the finishing touches, we do it as a team! The other princesses are the best friends you could have and I wouldn’t want to work with anyone else! x

Jem

Lead princess

Favourite princess…Aurora

I would say the princess I am most like is Aurora.. Loving, responsible, loyal in her relationships and a hopeless romantic - as well as a big fan of her sleep!!

Having already found my handsome Prince and having our beautiful babies, Primrose and Arthur - I can safely say I’ve had quite the fairytale so far and I’m very blessed! The only thing that was missing for me was having a job I was really passionate about, and luckily I found that here! The princesses have became the most amazing life long friends and the showroom our second home.. No 2 days are the same and although its not always glamorous - it is always unbelievably rewarding making the brides visions come to life, and I have SO much fun! It really is the best job ever!

Rach

lead Princess

Favourite princess…Belle

A princess does not define herself by clothing or make-up, rather by attitude, morals and life choices....

If I had to liken myself to any Disney princess it would most likely be Belle. A free spirited, logical thinker and reader, we share a love of books! Compassionate, patient and kind (who else would put up with Gaston’s advances?!)

Also known for (maybe) being opinionated, speaking my mind, and at the same time extremely loyal and independent, that’s me! 

Mumma to two beautiful grown up ladies and my fur baby, Arthur, I love to cook whenever I can, heavily inspired by my first job as a nanny working for an amazing Italian restauranteur. I’ve known Charlotte for many years, where we first met in our retail careers, and we’ve been through many life experiences ever since!

Currently I am known for my skills with flowers and am often found with my head in the back of a van, knee-deep in ruscus, eucalyptus and a pair of secateurs in my hand!

I absolutely LOVE what I do, helping to bring ideas into reality, and who knows, maybe one day I will meet my very own ‘beast’ :)
