Mix and Match Stationery for Fiona and Robert

Fiona ordered a Mix and Match invitation suite for her March wedding! Pale pink and steel paired with vintage inspired fonts and blossoms made for a subtly rustic and romantic design.

The invitation design featured an all over pattern along with a large version of the couple's chosen motif, blooms from a dogwood tree. The address label was designed similarly, but we used an oval frame to block off the areas for the return address and mail to address.

Thanks again, Fiona!

Custom Starfish Monogram for Sophia and Hap

Sophia contacted me last fall, looking for a vintage monogram design incorporating her wedding's starfish theme. We ended up with a simple and classy monogram, featuring a pair of intertwined starfish, along with the couples name in a lovely handwritten style font.

Thanks again, Sophia!

Custom Stationery Designs for Natanya and Courtney

Natanya ordered a set of custom stationery designs for her October wedding, to coordinate with her previously ordered flourish themed custom monogram design.

The program design was a folded, booklet style layout, featuring the couples name and wedding details on the front. The ceremony order and wedding party were listed on the inside pages, and the back of the program featured a thank you from the couple, along with an "In Loving Memory" section.

The table numbers, menu, and sign design all featured the same elegant flourish from their monogram, used in slightly different ways, for a look that coordinated without being overly match-y.

Thanks again, Natanya! I wish you and Courtney all the best!
