Redwood Forest

I love this invitation! It's whimsical and yet natural and cozy feeling. I created this suite to appeal to those marrying at a forest/garden venue. The mountains or even a meadow would also be fabulous! Hope you all like it!

Nautical Newport Wedding Suite

Jessica and Ben Britnell, two fabulous friends of my dearhusband and myself got married this past summer in Newport, R.I. Their weddingwas a one of a kind event hosted at the Belle Mer. The event includedcheerleaders, a “pollerina” a yacht and of course, cocktails galore!

Jessica asked me to help with the paperie suite for theirwedding. It was a blast! With a nautical theme to run with, we incorporatedwhimsical coral drawings, bubbles and cool grays. These elements were repeatedthroughout the event to make it seamless and branded.

Jessica was a beautiful bride! I wanted to share some imageswith you of the suite and the day as a whole.

Parisian Paper

This past Christmas I was asked to create one single invitation. I was slightly reluctant as it was the week before Christmas and I had enough of my own shopping and hall decking to worry about, but I couldn’t resist once I heard what the invitation was for. It was the couples 25th wedding anniversary in June. The sweet Mr. of the two had decided to make his wife’s dreams come true.

He had planned a one of a kind date night for them. To prepare her for their date night, he purchased her a sequin and crystal embellished couture gown. He picked it out, he wrapped it and he knew she would love it. Along with the gown he purchased tickets for them to see her favorite artist in concert and to make the night truly complete he planned a fabulous dinner for the two of them. Most women would be blown away at the thoughtful and intentional gesture of just the dress!

He had asked for my help in creating the invitation for the dinner because it was no ordinary restaurant. He had planned this extravagant night for the two of them… in PARIS! He was whisking her away to France for their anniversary and made dinner reservations atop the Eifel Tower.

I was so thankful to be a part of this special moment in their lives. To take part in not only a dream of the Mrs. but a remarkable gesture of love and kindness by her Mr. They are truly a one of a kind couple. Wrapped up in love and excited to be with each other. I wish them all the happiness for the next 25 years and I am so happy I was able to take part in this event.

Below are the pictures of the invitation along with the dress.
