Coordinating Wedding Stationery through the Color Palette

When we meet with our clients about their wedding invitation design we like to let them know that everything we offer is completely custom. We understand that not everyone can visualize a design like we can. We totally get that! We can help put everything into perspective and make the process much easier to follow. 

For example, if you send out blue Save The Dates, would you send out red invitations if red is not part of your wedding colors? NO! Coordinating all of the stationery pieces creates a cohesive/ "branded" feel for the entire wedding.

We suggest a wedding invitation suite that coordinates within all the stationery pieces. Here are two examples of what that would look like exactly. We normally start with a Save the Date design and/or color pallet. You can see we have a dominate color scheme to follow. We then carry that onto the coordinating invitation pieces. 



Sometimes the save the date can be a more whimsical and fun piece that turns more formal with the invitation pieces. By maintaining the same color palette, this is a great way to showcase your personality and still coordinate all the pieces together seamlessly.

Bridal Show Favorites!

We had such an amazing time at this years January Bridal Spectacular show! We love meeting new brides out there and hearing all about your wedding. Even more, we love hearing about all the trends happening! Every wedding is so different and unique, which is why our back pocket wedding invitation design was SO popular at the show! It's a great design that allows your additional insert to be tucked into the pocket that's attached right on the back of your formal invitation. 

Take a look at the invitation below that we displayed at the show. We hope you love it as much as thousands of brides did this past weekend!

Toast to the Bride-to-Be!


We love to customize details for our Brides. I mean, it's probably one of our favorite things about what we do. We feel every Bride is special and should made feel that way. We love even more so when our clients feel that same way. Take this Bridal Shower invitation for example. Our Brides' sister came to us with a large idea to make her sister feel amazingly special. Of course we are all for it, so we started designing this charming box that was sent to each one of our Brides guests in honor of the Bride-to-Be.

You can see below it included a custom champagne glass (designed by yours truly) with an invitation scrolled inside. It was then packaged into a custom box, sealed safely with an addressed label and mailed directly to each guest. This is still one of our favorites. What better way to toast the Bride-To-Be!
