Happy Monday Dotties! We are weeks away from Spring which I know has many people feeling the Spring vibe already. Those long-planned wedding days can often seem so far away!
Perhaps you are planning on getting married early in 2017. Take some time out now to enjoy being engaged – take long walks, a meal out in a favourite eatery or simply talk about your hopes and dreams at home while snuggled on the couch together. This time will never come again – so treasure it. Ms Polka Dot’s Directory is filled with a great bunch of wedding vendors who are great at what they do. We have Bridal Gown Services, we have Favors & Decor Accessories, we have Celebrants and Catering – we even have Stationery & Paper Goods and Bridesmaid Gowns! Our vendors will work hard with you to create the day of your dreams.
Check out Ms Polka Dot’s Directory for wedding vendors who will love your wedding as much as you!
From smooth jazz to upbeat dancefloor classics Orlando Combo has your wedding music covered. Earning a reputation as the ‘most danceable Jazz band in town’ this professional group of musicians can play everything from the big band era to their own take on current hits. A bonus is that you deal directly with the band (cutting out a third party agent) and you can hear them play weekly at The Botanical, South Yarra. Go and check them out!
We asked Lucas of Orlando Combo five questions in five minutes:
What is your favourite after five drink?
Baileys on ice.
Your favourite weekend getaway?
Getting down to the seaside village of Flinders on the far tip of the Mornington Peninsula for some fresh air, golf and beach time.
Favourite restaurant?
Pellegrini’s – Legendary little Italian eatery in Melbourne has remained unchanged for decades (including the menu!)
What can we find you eating for breakfast on a Sunday morning?
Pancakes with the kids.
Your favourite wedding story?
A close friend met his wife while he was travelling overseas – what started as a romance turned into a lifelong commitment despite the distance and difficulty with visas. Their dealings with our immigration department etc made me realise how lucky we are to be Australians by birth and not have to overcome the difficulties many face just to come here and enjoy what many of us take for granted. Their marriage is all the stronger for what they had to go through to be together.
