They opened with a whisper - Sonoma

They opened with a whisper...

A new addition to the Edgecliff Rd shops arrived this morning. It is none other than the delicious, freshly baked Sonoma.

It is located next door to Marshmellow, set slightly back off the road to avoid the noisy cars going past. Is Edgecliff Rd the near Paddington, Intersection?

The coffee gives a punch, the bread is warming and the setting is inviting.

"True inspiration comes from humble ingredients. In a loaf of Sonoma sourdough, there's organic flour, filtered water, sourdough starter and sea salt. In the people who bake it, there's passion, soul, hard work and integrity."
"
Each of these is a simple recipe for enduring quality".

And it is a great place to take your Mum too ;)

Colour combinations for your special day!

Wondering how to pick your wedding day colours and make them work? Here’s a guide to creating a winning palette.

The hottest thing happening at wedding receptions isn’t just on the dance floor — it’s on the wedding cake, the invitations, the centrepieces, and even the bride’s gown. It’s big, bold colour. Years ago brides used colour to accent their white wedding day decor, but now they’re using colour to cover every inch of the wedding. We’ve developed a step-by-step guide on colour coordination (from choosing it to decorating with it) to help you dream up a bright wedding day.

Choosing Your Colour

First things first: location. When deciding on a scheme, you must consider the reception space or choose a space without decor or colour. If you’ve chosen a country club with navy and maroon Oriental carpets, a colour scheme of lime green and hot pink won’t work.
Next, become aware of colour combinations that you like, whether browsing art galleries or flipping through a stack of fashion magazines. You might be able to narrow down your colour choices to a half a dozen. To help you choose the exact hue for your wedding details, visit a local fabric store or paint shop and collect swatches or chips of colours you might want to use. This will help you get specific, so that when you decide on green you’ll know if it’s lime green, kelly green, sage green, or forest green. If you have access to a Pantone book, use this collection of colours to select your shade the same way graphic designers do. Many invitation designers mix ink to match the colours in this book, and many cake bakers use Pantone numbers as a reference when creating dye for frosting. Can’t decide on just one or two colours... choose three!

See below for some great colour combinations!
