Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

Perth is a tricky little town for designers. Sometimes the folks that dig things out of the ground do not dig design as much as we do. But we love it here. And we don’t want to leave. So where does that leave us? Well, for Mitchell & Dent, that means ganging up with a bunch of other creative types and showing Western Australia what we’ve got. Here is just a teeny little snippet of the wedding wonderfulness on show this weekend at the first ever First Comes Love bridal fair. It is a carefully curated, design-orientated, sweet and sassy little affair with independent exhibitors, a photo gallery, on the floor fashion, live music, sweet treats and a hair and makeup lounge (book yourself a trial here). Come join?

Poor Tittle Tattle, we’ve been so neglectful. But it is only because we’re super busy planning something super exciting. We’ll spill the beans real soon, promise. In the meantime, we’ve been thinking frocks. As stationers, Mitchell & Dent gets to work with lovely brides a lot and have heard how frustrating it can be to find these kinds of frocks in Perth (if you have, do please share!). Folks find them on Etsy, but would you be brave enough to order in a frock from overseas unseen? Well if you are, these ones look pretty…

If you’ve found your ‘and’; as in his and hers, hugs and kisses, morning and night, sweetness and light. AND you’re getting ready for the biggest ‘and’ of all – Mr and Mrs – then look no further. The Ampersand wedding stationery suite (that’s just a fancy word for the ‘and’, don’t you know) by Mitchell & Dent is the perfect letterpressed equivalent of a grammatically-correct co-ordinating conjunction. AND, more importantly, it is darn purty.

Mitchell & Dent are old school. We’re real big on little things like confetti. Don’t you think it is a bit sad that wedding venues now value a clutter-free floor more than the joyful silliness of showering a bride and groom in papery specks of well-wishes? When we were little, the most exciting part of a wedding was the confetti (and the lace-laden dolls on the front of the bridal car, of course). Why not step back in time and celebrate (confetti allowed) by visiting our website, requesting a catalogue or ordering a sample pack?

Yes. You can get letterpress wedding invitations in Perth, thanks for asking. And Mitchell & Dent‘s lovely old 1905 Chandler and Price platen press, affectionately dubbed ‘Herbert’, especially likes to print the Cameo wedding stationery suite. He thinks the elegant typefaces, fancy flourishes and ornaments, and sweet little customisable cameos are most befitting the vintage printing technique of letterpress. If you do too, why not visit the website, request the catalogue or order a sample?

Inspired by Laura Ashley dresses of the 80s, John Laflin’s Liberty of London florals and 90s ‘It’ girl Plum Sykes – we spent an unreasonably long time creating Mitchell & Dent‘s very own pretty little tea rose print. It comes in five different colour palettes which can be used separately or mixed and matched. Perfect for garden celebrations in the sunshine and high teas on terraces, why not take a closer peek at the Luella wedding stationery suite on the website, in our newest catalogue or by ordering a sample pack?

Some folks just aren’t into over-the-top declarations with seventeen bridesmaids, lit limousines that look more like a club than a car, fifty foot trains and puffy ruffles a’plenty.
