Christmas Damask Wedding Invitations
Nicole is my first bride from overseas! She is getting married at the amazing Dunbrody House in Ireland. I used photos from their website with all of the beautiful red damask curtains and furniture to create this gatefold set.
Her invitations are also the first that I've done with the guest's names printed right on the invitation.
I wanted to make a striking appearance to the outside and created these large, long sashes of red damask with a monogram.
Her inserts were tied into each side of the gatefold with red ribbon and include an rsvp with a red envelope and double sided directions cards through the countryside of Ireland.

Portfolio Pocket Design
This is a new style we offer called the Portfolio Pocket - it is great for a destination wedding or a wedding with a weekend of events. The portfolio has a frame to insert a photo and the folder has a bit of a gusset so it can expand to hold several insert cards. We really loved the extra details this couple added to the invitation - embossed monogram, bling, ribbon and a great photo keepsake
Beth's Chicago Theme Wedding Reception
Beth's reception is being held at the Navy Pier in Chicago. The wedding was at the famous Fourth Presbeterian Church . We carried the Chicago skyline onto nearly all of the pieces.
The programs were designed with a formal etching of the church.
Pew cards!
Beth and Tom have traveled extensively and their tables were named after their exotic destinations.
Seating Chart with the Chicago skyline
Beth did these amazing booklet menus and agenda for each guest.
Pages included a thank you, menu, agenda for the evening, bridal party
and a pop quiz about the bride and groom.
My absolute favorite piece - tickets for a ride on the Navy Pier ferris wheel that I designed and made to look like vintage carnival tickets.

Ali's Vintage English Garden Wedding
Ali and her mother Susan truly worked to make every aspect of her wedding unique and personal. I had so much fun working with both of them on all of these projects. You might remember Ali's Bridal Luncheon invitations inside the red boxes with custom golf pencils. Ali wanted the placecards to act as personal notes as well.
Inside, Ali wrote a note to each guest.
Inside the out of town bags were either Welcome letters
or these awesome 18" long agendas
After the ceremony, Susan had the young children dress up like Angels and they passed out cookies to every guest. On one side was a note to enjoy the cookies on the trip to the reception, along with directions.
On the other side was the recipe for the Gooey Chocolate Cookies. I made it look like a vintage recipe card that will fit in everyone's recipe box.
Ali's trifold programs

Signature Drink Sign
Table numbers
The favors for each guest were small jars of honey. The honey comes from a local hive and a friend of the family. I made labels with a tiny bee landing on Ali's rose graphic.
Sign that was framed and displayed on the honey table.
The theme of Ali's wedding and invitations was the tree poem that Dan had written for her. At the wedding, they continued the tree theme by doing a vintage garden. They bought a tree and displayed it at the wedding and it will be planted at their new home. This sign was framed next to the tree.
Around the tree were stones that they asked each guest to sign their name. After the wedding, Ali will be putting the stones in their outdoor fountain.

Bird Theme Wedding
Jillian's bird wedding invitations are one of my favorites. I continued the two birds "sittin' in a tree theme" by putting the two birds kissing and finished the childhood poem on all of the pieces.

Menus that went on an easel at each table.
Tented table numbers with the bird and branch theme.
