Vanessa & Chris' Laser Cut Wedding Stationery

Hello Friends!
I hope you're enjoying this beautiful fall weather. 

We have some major news coming up in the next couple of weeks; stay tuned :). In the meantime, today's post is on one of our beautiful August brides. We met Vanessa earlier this year with her wedding planner and my dear friend, Alia Rdissi with Belle of the Ball Events. The unique thing about our consultation is that Vanessa had her videographer capture all her vendor meetings. So we had a camera crew in the meeting. We discussed the different stationery elements needed from the save the dates to thank you notes. Below are some of the stationery items we created for Vanessa and  Chris' wedding. The couple was married in August at the Houstonian Hotel here in Houston. Enjoy!

The Save the dates
The save the dates were Gatefold style with the couple's engagement photos

Vanessa fell in love with the laser cut wrap invitations. We did these in Blush pink and Champagne. Vanessa also loved the idea of presenting the invitations to her guests in boxes.

The unique boxes were embedded with Silk inlay on the inside with pockets for the enclosures
 
The Invitation boxes were wrapped with Blush wrap and addressed by Calligraphy by Patricia

I asked Alia to trust me with the ceremony programs. So I had free reign over these programs and I LOVE how they turned out. We foil stamped the cover in Gold foil and accented with Blush Silk ribbon.

Round Die Cut menu cards were placed under glass chargers at the reception. 

For the Tablecards, following the Silk inlay from the wedding invitations boxes, we created Blush Pink Silk Tent Cards

In lieu of traditional gifts, the couple asked guests to bring wine for the couple to enjoy at their future wedding anniversaries. We created these tags for the guests to write notes and tie them to the bottles.
 
Until next time, do enjoy the rest of the week!

"Marie Antionette" Themed 50th Birthday

Happy Thursday!!!
I'd wanted to blog these gorgeous invitations for a while now but just been too busy. We created the invitations below for a very fabulous lady. And when I say fabulous, I mean like Sofia Vergera type fabulous. Honestly, this woman looked too good for her age. Okay enough of that (lol). We met Mrs. Rincon through her wedding planner - Alia Rdissi with Belle of the Ball events. It's always fun working with Alia and her clients and this wasn't an exception.
 
She was planning a Marie Antoinette themed 50th Birthday celebration in Aruba. She fell in love with the design below from Paper Nosh. So I contacted Paulette about the artwork and below is the finished product. Some of the invitations were done in Spanish while others in English. We letterpress them, presented each invitation in a silk Box with Lace overlay and completed the look with a Cameo brooch. Love the look of letterpress!!!

The Invitations were presented to each guest in a Luxurious Silk Box

The enclosures were also letterpressed.

The Silk Boxes were placed in Boxed Mailers and sealed. Ready for mailing.

For the Menu cards, I wanted to create something a different but keeping with the theme. I suggested laser cutting the menu cards (to look similar to the Cameo Brooch). And below is the end result. Aren't these GORG!!!

Alia was kind enough to send a phone photo of the menu cards displayed on the table. Just too gorgeous!!!

Hope you enjoy your weekend!!!
