Playing those wedding games…

Filed under: Fun and Games · Posted by: Polkadot Bride at 10:45 am

 Playing those wedding games...You may remember when I talked about Dream Day Wedding, a game which had me enthralled (or perhaps procrastinating is the better word?) for hours trying to plan the perfect wedding for our Dream Day couple. Well the wedding is over and Dream Day Honeymoon has been released!

 Playing those wedding games...
The game takes the lead from Dream Day Wedding and takes you to destinations to search for weird and wonderful things (a stapler on the beach!) Of course you pick wonderful presents and play memory games in order to buy a first class flight home.

The second game is so Polka Dot Bride! Wedding Dash is hot off the press and it follows the same story as the famous ‘Diner Dash’ games and has you planning the perfect wedding- the groom hates spices, the bride loves chocolate.

Pick the perfect combination and head to the wedding day where you’re sent to deliver presents to the happy couple, serve three course meals, break up fights and console weeping aunts- sounds like a typical day for a wedding coordinator to us!

The guests (like typical wedding guests) have their seating requests, some want to be seated next to the blonde bombshell, others next to the distinguished grey haired chap. Some would rather sit anywhere but next to the ginger haired lady!

Of course, like Diner Dash, as levels progress the game gets harder with more guests and more problems to solve (again sounds like the typical wedding!)

Wedding Dash
and Dream Day Honeymoon and of course, Dream Day Wedding are available for trial and purchase from PlayFirst

I have been having serious blog withdrawal issues- but rest assured its all for a good cause!

In the mean time I thought I’d tell you about a fantastic looking event I discovered that’s being held in Melbourne next month!

The Sweet Temptation Expo will showcase everything from truffles, to cakes, to ice cream and of course chocolate!

I remember the last chocolate expo Melbourne held a few years ago- it was small, but wonderful! So I’m delighted to hear there will be more goodies and more sweet treats at this expo!

Expect to see your favourite cake boutiques, chocolate brands, sweet delicacies and much more (and try to not walk home with aching teeth!)

TS 1 Almost EverythingTassels in Pale Pink $49 for 100

I recently came across the cutest new site for wedding bits and pieces.

Called ‘Almost Everything’ the store is based online in Melbourne and Hong Kong (which means they have easy access to lots of goodies) They sell everything from rhinestone buckles (perfect for invites) to packets of hundreds of ribbon bows. For any DIYer this site is a must see!

BKS2 Almost EverythingRhinestone Square Buckle $39 for 50

Everything from embellishments to unique papers are taken care of- there’s even goodies for scrapbookers! Fabric flowers, gingham hearts, anyone with a crafty bone in their body will find this site tempting!

The possibilities and inspiration you can come up with using Almost Everything are endless…if you’re like me you’ll be tempted to order 100 ribbon bows, though I haven’t figured out the use for them yet! But I have figured out the use for their fabric hearts- Valentine’s Day! (is it too early?)

Rebecca Romijin & Jerry O’Connell married this past weekend in a surprise ceremony. Guests sat on hay bails and quilts as they watched the marriage ceremony held in the backyard of an LA home with the couples dogs present.

I love Rebecca’s Ralph Lauren Gown and the binding on her bouquet- the couple could not look happier!

Surprise weddings are always a fun relaxed way which take all the hassle out of planning the day!
