Sara + Ben & more Wedding Stationery

Hello everyone!
Wedding season is in full swing and blogging has had to take a backseat. But I'm excited about this blog post. I met Sara and her mom through their wedding planner, Alia with Belle of the Ball. We didn't have very much time to work on her invitations as we met about 31/2 months or so before her wedding. During our meeting, Sara fell in love with one of our Couture invitations. Of course, her wedding theme was Diamonds and Bling!!!! We began working almost immediately because Couture Invitations have a longer lead time than the standard custom invitations. With further ado, below is the stationery we created for her wedding. Sara & Ben were married in May in Austin, Texas. Congratulations!!!

Wedding Invitations - Silk Folio with Pockets for the enclosures.



Ceremony Programs - Sara wanted the programs kept very traditional so, we used white card stock with Silver ribbon

Menu Cards - 8" Round Menu cards went under clear glass beaded chargers

Table cards

Place cards with colored rhinestones signify each guest's meal selection

We also created Sara's Rehearsal Dinner invitations. She fell in love with the Layered Flat card from the time she saw it in the studio and didn't want to change a thing on it!

Favor Tags for the Rehearsal Dinner





Melissa & Nicholas
Melissa is one of our sweetest brides this year (thankfully, we've been blessed with very sweet brides this year who have been an absolute pleasure to work with). I met with Melissa, her Mom and Wedding Planner - Alia with Belle of the Ball in April, 2011! We began working on the save the dates shortly after. It was joy working on Melissa's wedding stationery. Her wedding took place at Hotel ZaZa Houston and if you know ZaZa, then you'll notice that the pattern/textures of the invitations were very reflective of the venue. Congratulations Melissa & Nick!

The Save the Dates were double layered with the hotel accommodations on the back.

I love the simplicity and elegance of the invitations. The purple was a nice color touch to the neutral tones of the other paper choices. What bride doesn't like a little extra bling!


The ceremony program was a folder style with the ribbon matched from the invitations. We created a monogram for the couple and brought in the pattern from the invitations.

More to come shortly :)
