Helloooo!  I’m Madame Bonbon and welcome to my blog.  I love styling fun and fabulous parties with delicious food and wine, decadent cocktails and creative decor.  Come follow my musings and life in marvellous Melbourne, Australia.

ABOUT ME

After many years travelling and working within the hospitality and events industry, I now live in the city with my husband, Matthew and our 4 year old daughter, Isabel.  I like to spend my spare time filling the family social calendar with parties, events and gatherings.  My home is my studio and you will often find me crafting party decorations, designing invitations or putting together dinner menus.  I also manage quite a lot of corporate functions and events in my day job.  Life seems pretty full at times, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I am going to take this opportunity to thank my amazing husband.  He understands this all-consuming passion of mine and is so very supportive. He’s an awesome photographer and you will most likely see some of his work on this blog from time to time (fully credited of course). Also a big hug and kiss to my daughter, Isabel, who will “endure” Mummy’s party styling for many years to come.

MY MELBOURNE

Living in Melbourne you can’t help but get caught up in it’s lively food and wine scene. The restaurants and bars here are truly world-class and don’t get me started on the coffee culture!  We’re devoted drinkers of the stuff.  When I’m not out and about on the weekends, you will find me at my local markets where I like to shop for fresh local produce.

INSPIRING YOU

Planning a party or an event can be a daunting experience for some people.  My blog was created so that I could share my ideas and plans with enthusiastic entertainers.  I want to inspire a little of the domestic goddess in all of us. So please feel free to contribute and leave feedback on any of my little projects or articles.  New blog articles are published every Monday and Thursday.

I hope you enjoy my little blog.

Best wishes,
