Sweet Fern bridal shower soiree

Perfume is a powerful trigger for memory and your wedding day will be one of the most important memories of your lifetime. Nothing captures the memory of walking down the aisle quite like the fragrance you wear, creating ever-lasting memories.

Have you taken some time to consider your bridal scent and it’s importance?

Ivory Tribe perfumery favourite, Sweet Fern, recently welcomed a lucky group of gorgeous girls to their beautiful Ballarat boutique for a special pre-wedding celebration and we couldn’t resist sharing the sweet story.

The guests, arriving at the warm, scent-fuelled and foliage-filled boutique, were greeted with champagne by store owner, Kate.

Inviting each guest to share their favourite scent, the Sweet Fern team then explained which family each scent belonged on the fragrance wheel – floral, oriental, woody or fresh. With scent so closely linked to memory, the education surrounding how and why we are drawn to varied scents, was fascinating.

Learning about the difference between ‘niche’ and ‘commercial’ perfumeries, the value of investing in a full bodied scent, matched to the wearer became obvious. Sample fragrances were sprayed and handed to the guests as they learned the different scents that formed part of the fragrance wheel. Then further compelling discussion took place about the ingredients that make up perfumes. Guests then sampled their favourite scents as they enjoyed cupcakes and champagne and luxuriated in the beautiful surrounds and decor of Sweet Fern.

Sweet Fern delivers a personalised and unique bridal shower experience like no other. It really is the perfect way for a bride-to-be to choose her most fitting fragrance, among her finest friends.
