Modern!

Laura came to me a few months ago with this wonderful idea for her invitation. Her fiance designed the monogram for the front of the invite and also had a hand in pulling together all of the images for the “headings” on on the insert cards. I just love the overal modern and fun look of her invitation. I know this one will be a trend-setter! Enjoy!

Calling all photos!

Do you have pics or pro pics of any Handmade by Allison items? Do you know of someone who had our designs on our wedding day? We would love to have the pictures to use on our website and blog! You could even be a featured bride on our homepage for a month! Just email the pictures to us and we’ll use them! Thanks!!

"O" what a pretty invite….

Kris came to me for her wedding accessories — some really unique designs using mauve colors and “I Love Lucy” design elements (I’m sure I’ll post those as we get closer to her big day). And, she ended up ordering invitations from me too! Her new last initial will be “O” and I just love this simple, but perfect monogram design. We combined lots of textures with this invitation….ivory pearlescent with mauve linen/canvas…and it really makes for a unique look. Enjoy!

Dragons!

Hmmm…dragons…doesn’t seem to go with a wedding, but check out this Asian inspired table number we designed for Edawn. She had seen something similar to this and sent us a sketch of what she wanted. I love the use of the chocolate and red colors together and my favorite touch is the monogram in the bottom right corner. Enjoy!

The Knot – Real Wedding Feature!

I just found out tonight that our work was featured on The Knot in a Real Wedding! I actually blogged about Jessica’s program a few months ago — you can check back to older posts to see more pictures — but here is the pro pic that was included on the real wedding post. I’m also providing the link to the actual article on The Knot. Very exciting! Thanks to Jessica for submitting the photo!
