Our Dream Team - Part Two
We couldn't create the amazing events that we create without the contribution and support from some incredible South Australian teams and businesses. On this week’s blog, we showcase (in three parts) these amazing humans working behind the scenes to make The Stylist’s Guide events come to life. We sat down with Connie Rhigas from Adelaide Flower House, Jessica Badawee from Made by J Designs and Domenic Scopelliti from Visual Domain for a quick Q&A about what it’s like to work with us over here at The Stylist’s Guide and why they love what they do.
ADELAIDE FLOWER HOUSE
Adelaide Flower House is widely known for their stunningly arranged floral designs for any type of event. Owner and floral extraordinaire, Connie Rhigas is able to capture any creative vision by her clients and bring it to life, making any special event a truly beautiful occasion.

What should people keep in mind when choosing a florist for their event? and why?
Find a florist you connect with and trust and whose aesthetic aligns with your own. The time-frame for receiving a quote will always give you a guide on their communication and professionalism
The best thing about your job? and why?
I love people and I love flowers… 30 years on.. I STILL DO!
MADE BY J DESIGNS
Run by the exceptionally talented Jessica, Made by J Designs has been running for 5 years now, creating clean and crisp designs and customised products tailored to any event. Loved by all of her clients, Jessica has a flare for encapsulating any desired effect with her own trademark style.
What do you love most about working with The Stylist's Guide?
What I love most is the creative freedom Alyse and her clients give me, I love that even though their is a brief there is also no brief! I love the fact that Alyse trusts me with my ideas even if at times they sound so far-fetched, it’s this type of design that always sets an upcoming trend.
What is your favourite event that you have worked on with The Stylist's Guide?
Oh gosh, there are way too many to name but I would say one of the top events we have worked on together would be Alyse’s 32nd birthday lunch. Whilst it was a small intimate gathering Alyse gave me full reign to let us design something very different, bold and bright which screams Made By J.
When it comes to choosing stationery for an event, what should The Stylist's Guide clients need to keep in mind? and why?
When it comes to event design stationery and working closely with MBJ you need to keep in mind you are dealing with qualified graphic designers who understand the processes, print methods and design principles. It’s what sets us aside from others who are creating designs for fun or as a hobby. We choose only the best materials and suppliers to work with so our work is always 100%.

What do you love most about working with The Stylist's Guide?
I love being able to capture Alyse’s amazing ideas, as her personal photographer I get to see the final product and I am always so amazed at how carefully thought out her setups are and how easy it makes my job as everything is always so photogenic!
What is your favourite event that you have worked on with The Stylist's Guide?
That’s a tough one because I love working at every event especially when it’s styled by The Stylist Guide. The events are all unique in their own way and that’s the beauty of it. Every event is exciting and I love being able to showcase the amazing work from Alyse and her team through my photographs!
What should people keep in mind when choosing a photographer for an event? and why?
The most important thing to keep in mind when choosing a photographer for your event is definitely their VIBE! Make sure you get along with them from the get go! Natural photos are always the BEST! With a chilled and relaxed photographer these photos will come easy! You want someone who is going to blend in with your guests and capture those special moments!
