Lavender & Silver Glittery Invitations

Joanna's wedding colors are Lavender and Silver and she wanted a lot of sparkle on her invitations. We incorporated the sparkle with some swarovski crystals in each corner of the invitation design, and a diamond glitter accent layer behind the monogram and invitation layer.

Each had an RSVP card with printed response envelope of metallic card stock:


These were mailed in silver metallic envelopes:

Photo Table Numbers & Vintage-Inspired Stationery

I worked with Jenny Orsini Events on some beautiful Lavender and Silver Stationery for one of their May Weddings. Ilke & Frans named their tables after cities that were important to them. They wanted to include a personal photo of each city as well as a description of it, so Jenny asked me to work my magic.



Each table number featured a lavender metallic tented base with a silver ribbon accent and a printed card on both sides.

The menus and place cards had more of a vintage design, using the same lavender metallic card bases with an off-white metallic printed layer:




Congratulations to Ilke & Frans, and thanks again Jenny!

Plum, Red, & Dark Silver Gray Wedding Stationery

Lynne found my work on Pinterest and contacted me to create the stationery for her wedding last December. Her colors were purple, red, and silver which we carried out throughout all of the pieces.


Square programs had a dark silver (charcoal gray) metallic cover with red ribbon binding:


Placecards had a metallic purple base with a printed white metallic layer. Lynne added the butterfly accent once she received them:



 Fun sign for their ceremony on the beach:


Gorgeous centerpieces:


Each table was named and included Love, Laughter, Respect, Commitment, Friendship, and Adore:




8x10 Thank You sign that was displayed near the favors:


Since the wedding was in December, they gave Christmas ornaments as their favors -- the Thank You sign is displayed at the table next to the favors:


Finally, Lynne ordered a sparkler send-off flag that she attached to a dowel and displayed with the sparklers!

Ticket Escort Cards

Ally's Sweet 16 had a Cruise theme, so I suggested making the escort cards into luggage tag shapes. We left the destination blank so that they could fill those in once all of the seating was finalized.


The "stamp" on the right features Ally's initials and her Bat Mitzvah Date. 
These were so much fun to work on -- Congratulations Ally!

Lizzie's Sweet 16

Lizzie turned 16 this summer and she had such an incredible celebration. I worked with Melissa from Jenny Orsini Events on the stationery for this event using purple, pink, and orange with a fun, modern design.


I came up with these purple metallic pochette invitations with a triple layered invitation inside, embellished with Swarovski crystals. Each invitation was wrapped with a patterned bellyband and also contained an RSVP postcard. I also designed a logo that was carried through on the gobo, the step & repeat, and even the custom pillows for the lounge area.


Having fun with the step and repeat:

They had this cool candle holder made using the font from the invite:

Turtle invites

Kelly asked me to create invitations for her daughter's first birthday. She wanted to use a turtle theme and include some photos of the birthday girl. Here's what I came up with:



I also created a matching banner for the mantel:

We did a mini banner for the highchair, too:


And oval labels for the candy buffet favor bags!

Blush + Black Parisian-Inspired Wedding Stationery

Erica & Jim were married here in New Jersey back in the fall of 2012. I had the pleasure of working with Jenny Orsini Events on the wedding day stationery, including church programs, menus, place cards, and table numbers.

This wedding was also featured on the knot:
