Bokeh

Bokeh is a photography term used to describe areas of a photo that are not quite in focus. To obtain this blurred look, your photographer places a special filter on his or her lens. Bokehs can be done in just about any shape but for your wedding day, a heart-shaped bokeh just seems perfect.

Mambo Mania

You won’t find it anywhere else – the hottest surf and skatewear from Australia, inspired in equal parts by surfing, skateboarding, music, art and humor. The Mambo customer both here and abroad is a special one, with an outgoing nature, a unique look and a great sense of humor. Take a peek at our selection of casual (and cheeky!) looks for juniors, men, boys and girls and see if the designs and graphics speak to you.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention: Ryan Kwanten (Jason Stackhouse on HBO’s True Blood) is our official “Mambassador,” which means that he’ll appear in our ads wearing some of the latest Mambo looks for men. Hello - it doesn’t get any better than that!

Cupcakes are the ultimate bridal shower sweet treat.  Not only are they delicious, but they can be decorated to match just about any theme or décor.  To serve, think a bit outside the box and arrange them on a few different cake stands to add visual interest and height to your dessert buffet.  You can also stack footed cake plates on top of one another for an alternate look.
