Jaclyn and Bernard -Damask, Hot Pink, Black/White with Crystals and Rhinestone Buckle


Stationery designed by Sweet Pea Print
Cake Designed by Premier Pastry

About our clients:
Jaclyn is such an such a beautiful amazing person inside and out. We go way back to the good old travel soccer/high school soccer days. We reconnected though facebook and was thrilled when I found out her and Bernard were dating.

Soon after we connected, both her and Bernard went on a trip to Las Vegas and he proposed....YAY!!!! They are so perfect for one another!!!

After the date was set, and we started contacting each-other to work on "Jaclyn and Bernard" custom wedding invitation package.

Our first meeting was so fun, fun, fun! She brought her mother so we could all discuss ideas, it was a great creative meeting. It was also an additional amazing experience for me because I have not seen her mother in years - she is so kind, smart and has that kind of laugh that makes you laugh. It was nice to reconnect with her as well.

They started describing their vision of the wedding - damask, magenta, black/white with a little "bling". LOVED it!!! Since Jaclyn and Bernard were engaged in Las Vegas she wanted to incorporate Las Vegas hotels as the table names which was a super fabulous way to put even more of a personal touch on their special day. She also love the idea of a monogram.

After our meeting the design phase began. It was a lot of fun. I really truly enjoyed working with them. We went back and forth with ideas with proofs and came up with their custom set.

Tiffany - Wine Themed Bridal Shower with Rhinestone Buckle




We were contacted by one of our fabulous clients to design her bridal shower invites. We were in the process of designing her and her fiances wedding invitations as well, so we were keeping that in mind while designing.

Her bridal shower was taking place at the beautiful Springfiled Grill in Ohio and her theme of the shower was "wine"

Now we love all our clients but we especially loved working with Tiffany because she was always very open minded and let us try new things.

We started off designing a 5x7 invite but thought since it was a "wine theme" maybe we could print on a shape.

I immediately started drawing out the concept and made an outline of a wine bottle. Then I made a smaller invite of text that would be placed where the label on the wine bottle would go.

Then I started thinking....it needs a little something more, hum...what todo?? Since her wedding invites (which you will see next month) used a rhinestone buckle so I thought that was a great way to introduce it and added that on to the design and BAMB, we created her a totally fabulous layered, die-cut bridal shower invitation.

To coordinate with the invitation we designed a layered RSVP card which indicated various fabulous menu choices for her guests - YUM! We layered it in coordinating stock and used coordinating fonts that would be used thought out the rest of her wedding stationery.

As her favors, her mother purchased wine for everyone so we designed a diamond layered favor tag that was attached to the wine bottle favors with ribbon - such a beautiful custom touch

Then to round off her bridal shower set we designed beautiful coordinating thank you notes.

Everything seamlessly went together and coordinated so well. See below...

Frances and Maxx - Black and White Custom Wedding Invitations

We custom designed Frances and Maxx fabulous wedding invitations.

I was very very excited to work on their wedding invitations because not only did I go to college with Frances but she is such a wonderful, creative person! I was truly honored plus it was a lot of fun!!!

She wanted to convey elegance and simplicity in the invites and make them black and white. She did incorporate a fabulous periwinkle color though out her wedding but wanted to keep the invites 2 colors.

After playing with many different fonts and graphics she fell in love with the design.

We then layered them with beautiful black linen and pearl metallic card stock.
