Posted in: Chinese lanterns, Decor Hire, Gift favours, Inspiration, Laser cut stationery, Parasols, Stationery, invitations
With every wedding season comes chaos, crazyness, lots of admin and just so many couples tying the knot! Who would have thought that there are so many people in SA rushing off to get hitched? In saying that, us girls at Secret Diary try to keep cool, calm and breezy when dealing with the wedding rush! We have decided to enlist the help of a few furry friends in order to deal with the work load….hehehehehehe…
This is Ava our studio cat and Secret Diary mascot trying to lend a “helping hand” !

No CommentsSecret Diary on Pasella!
Posted in: Chinese lanterns, Decor Hire, Gift favours, Inspiration, Parasols, Stationery, invitations
We are proud to announce that Secret Diary will be featured on Pasella in October! Please watch our blog for pics and more details as to the EXACT date!
For those of you who dont know…..Pasella is a trendy lifestyle show whereby they feature and interview many different SA business men and women that are making their mark in their industry as well as present viewers with inspirational ideas for day to day life and eventing.
We were lucky enough to be featured on the show as part of an amazing group of service providers in the wedding industry (who we HIGHLY recommend). The following list of people are so amazing and talented in so many ways I could blog about them ALL DAY!
A big Thank you to Jana the amazing and ever so patient producer of the show who helped me brush up on my Afrikaans, as well as the lovely Mienkie for being an absolute pleasure to work with!
Herewith the Pasella dream team:
Jaco van Loggerenberg from Just Jack Wedding and Event coordination is what every bride needs and should have! His co-ordination skills surpassed my greatest expectations and he was able to pull off an amazing shoot in almost no time at all. Brides to be – this is what you want out of a coordinator!
Find Jaco on http://www.just-jack.com
Jo-Lize from Floral Affairs is perfection personified when it comes to flowers and she does it with such ease! Along with Jo-Lize comes a lifelong passion for all things floral and this is apparent in all her work. I was lucky enough to take home some of the flowers that Jo-Lize used for the shoot and my goodness did they bring life to our studio! A great combination of blossoms, tulips and roses. Jo-Lize you are amazing!

Anneri from Nelle Cakes makes the cakes from the pages of a Martha Stewart Wedding magazine look like they were done in an easy bake oven! She is going to take the cake industry by storm. If Marie Antoinette had her own personal cake maker it would have been Anneri!

Also a HUGE thanks you to Johan , Joanie, Lana and Inecke from the Aleit Academy – you guys did an AMAZING job and are destined for greatness!
Love the Secret Diary Team

No CommentsSecret Diary at the Tygervalley Bridal Expo
Posted in: Chinese lanterns, Decor Hire, Gift favours, Inspiration, Parasols, Stationery, Uncategorized, invitations
We recently took our show on the road as they say and spent the weekend at the Tygervalley Bridal Expo!
We had a fabulous response from the public and all in all it was an amazing success! We loved being able to meet so many brides to be and are almost booked up with consultations following the expo!
We made sure we catered for all markets and tried to have as much of our different ranges on display as possible. From the laser cut invitations and stationery, perspex laser cut decor pieces, invitations , menus, seating charts, parasols to the paper lanterns and much more.
It was also great fun being able to exhibit next door to our friends from Val De Vie Polo Estate as well as the twins Marinda from IPL Laser Clinic and Marietjie Hurter the oh so lovely makeup artist.
Thank you to Cream Event Library for putting on a great expo and we will without a doubt be back there next year!
Love
The Secret Diary team

Just a few snippets of what weve been up to the last few weeks!
Colour is looking bright for this upcoming season! We have been rather lucky with so many of our brides to be requesting bright summer colours for their wedding stationery and what better way to make a stylish stationery statement than to go bold for summer.
Being a avid lover of all things bright this was right up my alley!

No CommentsBride -to -be of the week!
Posted in: Gift favours, Inspiration, Stationery, invitations, wedding
Rozana and Neils wedding is one we are both proud to work on and super excited to see!
When Rozana approached us recently to tackle the task of doing her stationery and gift favours we were more than happy to be involved!
Rozanas colour choice was one of simplistic monochromatic elegance – black and white! She has chosen to have monogrammed favour boxes done for both the ladies and gents filled with gorgeous keepsake pressies. We are also doing lots of laser cut perspex work as well as a nifty solution to table number holders!
Stay tuned for more follow up pics of this amazing couple and their stationery! Our prediction is that this wedding is going to be one of the best of the upcoming season.
