Michelle and Mundi are saying “I do” this Friday in Mexico!!!

They didn’t want an “obvious” tropical theme for their beach wedding in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, they wanted the invitation to express “fun”. So, we went to work and came up with the stylized over-sized flower motif that you see here. Their invitations were printed on a metallic stock and used dark pink and lime green inks to compliment the “fun” approach.

They loved the invitation so much that we are currently working on their “After Party” invitations for a reception for the guests that could not attend the wedding in Mexico (which happens to be my favorite design I have ever done). Michelle and Mundi are on a path to a beautiful life together, and we are so happy they met us along that path. Congratulations!!

Custom Menus

March 5, 2010

Last month we received an email from Leah at Celebrations Catering requesting 125 menus for one of her brides. The menus were very simple and matched one of our invitations from “The Invitation Bar”. Our menus were photographed by the amazing TJM Studios, and a week later they sent us a disk full of images to share with our readers. Take a look at the gorgeous setting that the Museum of Natural History provides for any event, of course it did receive help form Celebrations’ decor.  This was a perfect example that you don’t have to just order invitations, the sky’s the limit!

Chanity and Brandon came to us after meeting us at the bridal expo last year. They saw one of the invitations from our “Invitation Bar” and fell in love. We re-designed the invitation with their chosen colors of brown, green, and pink, added new fonts and made it custom to them. Now, we are in the middle of production for their invitation suite and we wanted to share their monogram and their beautiful engagement session by Footstone Photography.

Save the Date Magnets

February 25, 2010

We LOVE doing invitations, and especially love it when our clients ask us to do other coordinating pieces. So, when Maria asked us to do her Save the Dates, we were thrilled! Her invitations have not been mailed yet, so we can’t show you their entire suite but, we can finally show you her beautiful save the dates!

maria-and-timmy-magnet

These were printed on a gorgeous linen texture and had a magnet backing so their guests would put them right up on the refrigerator. The best part of these..the picture was taken by the couple! That’s what makes these so special. We loved doing these for Maria and Timmy and cannot wait for their guests to receive their invitations!

In the Works: Alexa and Nick

February 24, 2010

Alexa and Nick came to us with a very, very strong idea of what they (she) wanted…pink! Lot’s and lot’s of pink. Light pink, dark pink, pink pink.  The invitation suite we have designed for this great couple features 2 different pink metallic stocks, metallic white all in a shimmery black pocket tied with what else?, a pink ribbon.

We loved every minute of working with this great couple to create their invitations and cannot wait until their guests receive them in the mail. Once they are mailed out we will show you the final design, until then, here’s the monogram that started it all.
