Hugh Hefner Announces Engagement

OMG ! Playboy owner Hugh Hefner has announced he is planning to marry for the third time! The 84 year old asked girlfriend of two years Crystal Harris, 24, to marry him on Christmas night.

As a closet-lover of 'The Girls Next Door', I am in shock about this announcement because Hef's previous girlfriend of 7 years, Holly Madison, deseparately wanted to marry him and have babies with him, but ended the relationship because of his resistance. Wow, i'm shocked that Hef has proposed to his latest 'number 1 girlfriend'. No doubt the wedding with be at the Playboy Mansion as Hef doesn't like to leave the mansion much. But what can i say, what 84 year old wouldn't want to hang-on to this 24 year old glamour ??... Do i hear the sound of a pre-nup ??

Green and Bloom Florist

I love stumbling upon fantastic wedding industry professionals that i never knew existed, like Green and Bloom Wedding and Event Flowers.

Green and Bloom is the brain-child of owner Roberta Moberg, a creative lady who discovered a need for a floristry business which provides unique, romantic, youthful inspired flower creations for brides in the Brisbane, Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast areas.

As a business focusing solely on wedding and event floristy, you don't have to worry about Green and Bloom being busy with normal day to day running of a shop... Green and Bloom doesn't have a shopfront! Instead choosing to focus on making your wedding dream come true by meeting you in a local coffee shop to discuss your inspirations and ideas. You only have to look at these divine, unique bouquets to see that booking Green and Bloom for your wedding day equals one less stress !!! Green and Bloom you are on my wish list !!

Vintage, modern, noueauv or country,

Green and Bloom Wedding and Event Flowers

is the perfect choice.

TuTu Sweet !!

Today i've been inspired by the limited edition Flowerbomb perfume by Viktor and Rolph. Not only does it smell great but it looks gorgeous with a little pink tutu around the bottle. The perfume would be the perfect finishing touch to a ballet inspired wedding.

Merry Christmas

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Let your heart be light.

From now on, our troubles will be out of sight.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,

Make the yule-tide gay.

From now on, our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are in olden days,

Happy golden days of yore.

Faithful friends who are dear to us,

Gather near to us once more.

Through the years, we all will be together,

If the fate allow.

Hang a shining star upon the highest bough,

And have yourself a merry little Christmas now!

Merry Christmas... Love Frog Princess xxxx

Nicole Richie & Joel Madden say 'I Do'

After much secrecy Nicole Richie finally tied the knot with her long-time beau Joel Madden, at her father Lionel Richie's Beverly Hills estate on December 11.

Nicole looked the part as she walked down the aisle to "Ballerina Girl", a song Lionel wrote to his daughter in 1986. Her ivory, lace and crystal Marchesa gown (the first of three), featured a skirt made from more than 90 metres of silk organza and was so big she couldn't sit in it. Of course Nicole commissioned the very best wedding planner, Mindy Weiss, to create a Versailles themed reception tent with hundreds of candles, lavishly decorated tables of white hydrangeas, orchids and green hedging. The newlyweds had their first dance to 'What a Wonderful World'.

Time to party! As Nicole changed into her third Marchesa gown, a black bias-cut dress with a diamond and crystal overlay and headpiece, the room was also transformed into a gothic cocktail lounge. Mismatching lounges, leopard-fur ottomans, Moroccan lamps and a black dance-floor created a very eclectic and fun vibe. At 2am waffles, sausages and eggs appeared to re-energize the party goers.
