Nothing beats the smell of a fresh Christmas tree. After an 11pm run to woolworths for our Christmas tree, here it is…
Wishing you and families a happy and safe Christmas. I look forward to working with you in the new year xxx

One of the most popular colour schemes we see used for weddings recently is silver and white. The combination brings a certain sense of enchantment to the day. Combine subtle silver attire with a gorgeous white table setting and our elegant signature wedding invitation range to begin the creation of your perfect white and silver wedding.

The great thing about designing our wedding invitations in-house is the ability to be able to provide our clients with a customised wedding invitation to really set the mood for their big day. Many couples take us up on this option and request changes to current wedding invitation and stationery designs. Here are a few of our recent clients’ personal touches:

Jenna and Joe opted to change the colouring of our existing ‘black lily hardcover invitation‘ to a beautiful deep blue. What a beautiful transformation this was, especially in hardcover form.

Natasha and Daniel loved our black bow hardcover wedding invitation and opted to have this created for them in the designer wedding invitation style, rather than hardcover. This invitation was embellished with black satin ribbon, a black satin bow and a swarovski diamante. Pure elegance!

Kathryn and Darren loved our ‘black vine wedding invitation’ but had a summer wedding theme. To keep within their theme, they chose a beautiful peach colour to replace the black and ivory. Gorgeous choice!

Rebecca and Matthew had a purple wedding theme so they opted for a colour change of our ‘blue elegance wedding invitation’ to match their bridesmaid dresses. Very unique!

I’m in love with these gorgeous damask vellum glass shades from kate aspen. They are the perfect way to add a bit of class to your tables. The glass shades can be found on the kate aspen website and would go perfectly with our chandelier hardcover invitation. Pure elegance!

One of our beautiful couples, Natarsha and Shaun recently celebrated their engagement. It’s always an honour to be able to contribute to such an important time in a couple’s life together.
Natarsha and Shaun chose our signature engagement invitation for their big night.
Here is the gorgeous couple and what they had to say…
“The team at Auravella began to create our perfect Engagement party. We had a idea of what we wanted our invitations and Jess and the team created the perfect invitation for us. We had 100 guests help us celebrate our engagement and the night was a big party with family and friends. We had many people help us to create such a fantastic night and the Auravella team were one of many helpers.
Thanks again to all the Team at Auravella.”

Well, it’s been a while!
We’ve been extremely busy with spring and summer wedding invitations and are ready for a much needed break!
Auravella will be closed for that ‘much needed break’ from 5pm this afternoon and will re-open 9am 10th October.
Orders and enquiries can still be made within this time and will be attended to upon our return.
Wishing you all a lovely couple of weeks!

There’s something so beautiful about the loneliness in this photo… So serene.

I love how striking and vibrant the colour red is. Add a splash of red to your big day with a beautiful red rose bouquet, striking red wine glasses and our red damask hardcover wedding invitations.

My beautiful sister gave me two of these amazing cupcake soaps yesterday. I couldn’t get over how absolutely real (and yummy) they looked! Really makes you want a cupcake…
They are made in Australia by a company called Planet Yum (yum, indeed!).
Such a brilliant gift idea! She always seems to find these beautiful things
Thought I’d share…
