Okay, so for her birthday, i am about to give my other half a bottle of two year old slow Gin I made with her. Its label will have upon it the following
The text and images contain a coded message. I would appreciate it if you would have a go at cracking it, just so that I can be sure that it is possible to solve.

For those interested, It is her 30th and she will be having a alice in wonderland themed party.
Did you guess or did you get there legitimately?
How can you read it? The image is tiny and when I try to zoom in the words become blurry...possibly a browser issue.
MMm... It looked okay on my screen. I guess I will need to see how it comes out in print.
If not I shall have to pick up the old pen.
If she's really good at solving these kinds of ciphers, leave it alone.
However, if not, for the love of the Gawds change it! :)

Okay, so...Saturn...6th planet...start with the 6th letter...count back six letters to decode...got it.
But I made two mistakes first. To start, I was thinking Uranus and the 7th planet first (I fail mythology, shame on me, I really should know this stuff). Then I thought I was supposed to start with the 6th letter of the sequence and skip forward six letters each time to find the message. Looking at the earlier version of the label helped me work it out. I do think the earlier version is pretty obvious just from the word lengths.
So like Turin said, if she likes this kind of thing, go for it! Even though gimmick proposals aren't personally my style, I think this particular one's pretty cool.

Oh man, let's hope she doesn't make that mistake. She could think you're popping a TOTALLY different question ;)

We'll Angie liked her present. Once she realised there was a coded message it took her about two minutes to crack it open. She said yes. Thank you all for giving me a hand with it.
Congratulations!
Congratulations, Zombieneighbours!
