Happy Thanksgiving…a little early!

So, today is my last day in the studio before the Thanksgiving holiday. I plan to spend lots of time with the family…and away from the laptop. Let’s see how long I last…does my blackberry count? Oh, well…I’ll do my best.

To get you in the turkey mood, I wanted to share a Thanksgiving place card design with you. We have a long time client, Nancy, who lives in Ohio, that has us design place cards for her Thanksgiving and Hannakuh every year! We love getting to try out new ideas…and this year was no exception. Actually, Allie ended up using this design for her Thanksgiving with friends a few weekends ago!

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!

Real Wedding – Brenda & Mario – 11/14/09

As promised, Samara from By Design Events, sent me some phenomenal pictures from Brenda and Mario’s big day. They were married at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Montego Bay, Jamaica. I was so excited to see everything come together…including all our special touches. Special thanks to Kristen from Kristen Leigh Photography for making our work look SO good. Enjoy!

Congrats Brenda and Mario!

Wedding Joy in Jamaica

Brenda and Mario were married on November 14th in Montego Bay, Jamaica. We loved designing their invitations and were so happy to work on the day of accessories too. Samara Mendoza from By Design Events was nice enough to stop by and pick everything up. I haven’t heard from Samara how the big day went, so I’m hoping to get a full wrap up…and I can’t wait to see pictures!! I’ll be sure to share…in the meantime, enjoy these in studio pics of their menus, favor tags and place cards.

Save the Date Day!

I have been in “meeting land” for the past few weeks…which is a good thing…because that means that it will be a great 2010! For a lot of the girls I meet with, the first piece of wedding stationery they want to tackle was the save the date. Save the dates are usually sent out 6 to 8 months prior to the big day and the designs vary just as much as the brides, grooms and their weddings! Below are a bunch of new designs we’ve had the pleasure of creating for 2010 brides. Enjoy!

Caitlin and Tim had these wonderful engagement photos and really wanted to highlight them on their save the date magnet. Love them!!
Colleen and Ryan wanted to bring a Celtic feel to their save the date, so we designed a custom “love knot” design for their save the date postcard.
This is a new save the date design that has a vellum overlay imprinted with Jodi and Luis’ engagement photos. They were engaged on News Year Eve, so the fireworks were special to them both!
Finally, I just love this very elegant save the date for Jenifer and Rhoan’s destination wedding in Jamaica. So pretty!

Sand Dollar Surprise

Michel and Wayne were married on November 8th. We were honored that they came back to us to do some pretty table decor for their wedding. We loved designing their invite…here’s the post…and the table numbers and escort cards did not dissappoint.

Their table number is a classic look — with cranberry pearl backing, silver accents and includes their monogram and table number on the front. Their escort cards were a surprise for their guests…we tied sand dollars with the escort card, using a deep red ribbon. Love the look! And, I hear that they were hung on silver branches at the wedding…can’t wait to see pictures! Enjoy!
