Swirls in Dark Blue

I just completed this lovely invitation suite. Both my client and her fiance are musicians, as are members of their families. They wanted something elegant that reflected their love of music and their wedding colors- deep blue and dark champagne.

We printed the invitations on shimmery metallic ivory stock with matching envelopes. Beautiful!

Elegant Swirls for a Winter Wedding

There's something so lovely about a winter wedding! Most of my clients get married during the spring and summer, so I was very excited to work with Patty and Chris on their winter wedding. Patty and Chris came to me with great ideas about their wedding invitations. Dramatic black and white. Sparkles. Everywhere!  Fancy script fonts, well-organized inserts, and most importantly, an invitation that promises an elegant and FUN wedding reception!



Love the shimmer in the pocketfold!






See the mention of shenanigans? 




Thank you for working with me on your invitations, Patty and Chris! It was a pleasure working with you both!

Starfish Escort Cards for a Beachy Santa Cruz Wedding

I'm excited to show you a fun wedding I did this summer.My client wanted an elegant, clean, beach wedding. Her wedding invitations were fantastic- each delivered in a chocolate brown box, and inside a perfect white starfish was tied to each invite. What a treat to be invited to this intimate wedding!

I was thrilled when she contacted me to carry the starfish theme even further!  The wedding was held at the historic Hollins House in Santa Cruz, overlooking Pasatiempo Golf course and the Monterey Bay. The day was amazing; perfect for an outdoor reception. We made tented table signs with subtle starfish details- each table was named for the group sitting there.  Great ice breaker! (also, I want to be seated at the 'flawless' table!)



For the seating arrangements, we tied tiny tags around each starfish. The ribbon colors coordinated with the guests entrĂ©e selection.  Adorable, right?

I love the wooden boxes.  And the sand!

Graphite Plumes Pocketfolds

 These platinum pocketfolds were delivered to my lovely client Stephanie last week, and I'm pleased to report that she loved them! When we had our consultation at my office, we discussed a timeless, super elegant event for her close friends and family. Her wedding will feature deep silver and navy blue as an accent color throughout.

The graphite plumes pocketfolds are so decadent, and fit perfectly with the event she is envisioning.  And paired with the deep navy cardstock and crisp white cardstock- wow.  Total elegance.

I love all the little details...
