Our Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit the Very Special Celebrations website! This online store displays many products but NOT EVERYTHING yet, so we invite you to visit our Brisbane boutique to view the entire range, or contact us for further information.

Very Special Celebrations was established in early 2009 with the intention of offering high quality bomboniere, accessories, gifts and children's formal clothing, in an inspiring full-service retail environment, at reasonable prices. We offer stylish products with a sense of timeless elegance that are also unique and distinctive. Our collection includes everything from classic heirloom garments to quirky accessories and gifts.
 
We have a great passion and enjoyment for helping our customers add the important final touches to their special occasion, whether it be a wedding, christening, baby shower, bridal shower or other special event. Our beautiful boutique, and now this online store, make it easy for us to assist you in choosing beautiful bomboniere, stunning garments, delightful accessories and gorgeous gifts for your special occasions.

Specialising particularly in weddings and christenings, Very Special Celebrations stocks a gorgeous range of wedding and christening bomboniere, bridal accessories, flower girl dresses, page boy suits, christening gowns and suits, baptism candles and gifts. Orthodox weddings and christenings are also catered for, and we can assist you in choosing all the items needed for your important occasion including Orthodox candles (lambathes), Orthodox wedding crowns (stefana), christening boxes and more.

Here you can also find clothing, accessories and gifts for communions and confirmations as well as products for baby showers, naming days and bridal showers.

I hope you enjoy browsing through the collection, and wish you all the best for your special day...
