Merry! Merry!

The holidays are coming and I can't tell you how much I  look forward to this time every year! I love to get to work on invites like this one for the AMAZING Jason's Catering! They  are a fun company and they love to celebrate and have a great time! I think this invitation captures their "Merriness" & and the happiness of the season perfectly! 

Wacky Details!

I am telling you it's the little details that make your event special and unique! This invite had all the wacky details... I knew they wanted the Monster Crew on the invite and we added the fun little wacky back graphic just for kicks and to seal the deal the envelope they added a googly eye! I couldn't even open it when I got mine in the mail. I just loved it so much! Thank goodness I had a extra sample!

Divalish!

Sometimes I just have to pinch myself because I get to work with the best clients ever!!!  Plus it is always so fun to custom make an invitation suite that captures someone so perfectly and have it spill into the event with all the little touches!  It is even better when you get some divalicious shots after the big event! These were taken at sweet Halie Rose's Mitzvah at the Island Hotel Newport Beach! Every little detail was as fabulous as she is!!

 

Fast cars....

What kid doesn't like fast cars and clean designs! This is what we had in mind when we starting designing the Bar Mitzvah suite for this cool kid! We created a custom logo mark based on his favorite colors and dream ride and then went from there! For more pics check out the blog post from the ever fabulous and Swell event planner Natalie Vishny at Swellegant.

A little birdie told me...

So this is going to be my last post for a bit since I am going to be taking off shortly to have a sweet baby girl! This invite was for a luncheon that my friends threw me. The theme was "A little birdie told me" and it was super tweet with the most beautiful combinations of aqua and pink... What a lucky little bird! 

All you need is LOVE!

So my latest creative project has been working on a "Love Reunion" invite for all the couples Natalie from Swellegant and I have worked with over the years.... Think sparkling pool, champagne and summertime! I love my job! 

Beachy Stripes!

You have got to love a California Wedding - complete with beachy stripes for elegance and a playful pop of coral for some color! Oh and don't forget the mad lib rsvp. Those are always the best to get back from your guests! The responses are always super fun to get back and the guests actually enjoy doing them and get them back to you which is a plus!! 

I can't wait to go to this wedding and snaps some some more shots of all the fun details we did - from the candy bar to the flip flop basket it is going to a great day!  

 

"Bubbles and Nosh!"

Absolutely love this bride! Not only does she want cool non traditional fonts, colors & patterns but we get to use the term "Bubbles and Nosh!" How fun is that!?

Love is sweet....

This weeks project was to create some lovely menus, dessert menus, table and escort cards for a wedding at the Island hotel with Swellegant & Christopher Todd Studios... It doesn't get much better than this! 

Color Pop!

So these days my brides all want that "pop" of color and that  makes me beyond happy! From limes to poppy, I just love trying new colors combos! This invite set was going for the summer color pallette of greens, pinks and poppies. A lot of of the inspiration came from Pinterest - from the lace of the dress to the color of the sweet treats they will serve... All this can be married into the invite! After all the invite is the first thing people will see and it sets the tone for the wedding!
