Jennifer & Jason's Wedding

Jennifer & Jason were married on a pleasant spring day. The ceremony at St. Monica's church was beautiful and the gardens on the church grounds were perfect for formal photos.

Then, the bridal party took a trip to Valley Forge Park for some stunning photographs. Sandor Welsh is so talented, check out their photo gallery: www.pictage.com/465549

The reception was held at Columbia Station in Phoenixville. The shimmery purple overlays, gold chivari chairs and pin-spot centerpiece lighting totally transformed the room.

The florals were handled by Paoli Florist- Jenn used her favorite flower, Irises, everywhere she could and had the placecards displayed in flats of wheatgrass.

In leiu of a candy buffet, the couple decided on a cheesecake buffet- it was a huge hit with the guests! Cheesecakes courtesy of Sweet Jazmine's

We ended the night on a high note with a sparkler sendoff!

DJ Smoky kept the dancefloor packed and Ric from Martin's Video did a phenomenal job!
What a night!

Signature Cocktails/Bar Menus

Signature cocktails are all the rage these days- you kids can't get evough of that booze! Many couples opt for the "Something Old, Something New" martini bar

Many opt for one signature cocktail but also want to give thier guests the whole bar menu, too

Many venues will create an entirely seperate display for the signature cocktail, like this Carmel Apple Martini station!

My advice: add a signature cocktail if you can- use your wedding colors or your favorite drinks! Guests love it and they are always a hit!

Lucky Duck Jewlery

My friend, Dana, owner of Lucky Duck Jewelry and possessor of the sweetest demeanor this side of the Delaware, made this amazing pearl necklace for me.

She knows I'm anything but traditional, so the pearls have a funky texture and almost look iridescent & pinkish

Anyway, I wanted to make a fuss over how much I liked it and how I think everyone should check her out! http://www.luckyduckjewelry.com/

Leslie and Nick's Save The Dates

Chocolate and Chandeliers- I love this girl :)

Erin & Brian's Samples

My best friend, Lauren, referred her coworker Erin when she became engaged! She did a little recon work for me on what they were thinking and I showed up at our meeting with samples for them to take!

I hit the nail on the head- we're going with this design exactly! Black pocketfolds, layers of fuchsia and damask with white face & inserts.

I also put together a sample program in white to change it up a bit for the church.

I'm really looking forward to creating everything for this wedding!

Angelica's Baby Shower

Angelica's Friends and Family hosted an afternoon "Tea for Two" baby shower at Atlanta's Garrett Bullock Teahouse. She'll be decorating baby Sophia's nursery in green & pink toile, so naturally, everything had to coordinate.

We brought the "tea" theme into the table tents. On the front, the tables were named for various teas and included a brief write-up about that particular tea. On the back, the brunch menu.
This place couldn't be more adorable or perfect for this southern belle!

The placecards were mini versions of the table tent- name on the outside, table assignment & little write-up inside. Displayed on gorgeous damask linen. It was a perfect design for the space!
Everybody's favorite: Baby Shower Bingo!

I did two sets of favor tags for the little tea bag favors inside the favor bags.

We made assorted round lables to be used on the favor bags

Sweet label action shot

I also made matching water bottle labels, because sometimes it's hard to stop.

Although I've technically never met Angelica, I am positive we'd be great friends in real life. Not only did I have the pleasure of handling the paper goods for her wedding and the paper stuff for her baby shower but, I'm also planning her future baby daughter's "Debut Party" in September! We have the most fun concocting new ideas to outdo the last! I look forward to meeting her very soon!

Kate & Bryan's Invitations

Kate's purple polka dot reception theme is so fun!

She chose a shimmery lilac square pocketfold with chocolate backing and subtle touches of polka dots.

We used a chocolate satin ribbon bellyband to seal the package- Love the look!

Therese & Ryan's Save the Dates

Therese's wedding gown inspired the lace design of these Save The Date cards. The metallic chocolate backing layer gave them a formal touch.

I cannot wait for their wedding in November- she has awesome ideas!

Nanett & Allan's Invites

I have the pleasure of being the coordinator for Nanett and Allan. I know she has some specific ideas for her reception decor that she wanted to incorporate in their invites- brown, blue & BLING! The beautiful package sure to impress their guests. Nannett designed that monogram!
We did a 5x7 pocketfold in chocolate with aqua accents and three inserts We added 3 crystal gem embellishments on the face of the invitation for the wow factor!
And because I'm a giant dork that gets excited over this kind of stuff- a program sample I made up from leftover materials.

Liz & Drew's Wedding

Liz and Drew were married on a gorgeous spring day. We expected rain, but lucked out with sunshine and blue skies!The bride looked stunning as she made her way down the aisle of Grace United Methodist Church in downtown Whilmington. It was a goregous ceremony. After photos at the church, the Bridal Party made their way to Gibraltar Gardens for more pics!Mike Kehr Photography is Ah.maze.ing.The reception followed at DuPont Country Club. The bride's simple Black & White color scheme looked gorgeous in the ballroom!

The favors were truffle chocolates in beautiful gold boxes we placed on the charger plate and splits of champagne with a custom gold label. Hardly any were left behind- the guests loved them! The wedding was so fun- everyone had a great time! Steve from D&J DJ's had the dance floor packed all night. The country club, as always, provided stellar service- the monogram martini luge was a total hit! Tammy with Martin's Video did a fantastic job- check out their video clip here: http://web.mac.com/accentweddingvideos/Liz_&_Drew

I had so much fun at this one and thank Liz & Drew for letting me be a part of it all.
::sniff::
I love you guys!

Nina & Jason's Programs

Nina and Jason chose to do a simple black and cream program with a thick black ribbon- stunning!

Christina & Shawn's Invitations

Christina and Shawn chose a formal black pocketfold with fuchsia accents and subtle touches of tangerine.

We tied the package closed with a hot pink bow closure. They look great!

I can hardly wait to coordinate Christina's wedding at The Patio at Archmere this June. I'm sure it'll be an unforgettable event!

Jenn & Nick's Programs

Jennifer and Nicholas chose a shimmery lilac for the cover of their layered program, and supplied us with the monogram for the front. They turned out great!

Lindsay and Stephen's Invitations

Lindsay and Steven chose to do a layered invitation in black and deep red with a matching response card and a scarlet ribbon belly band closure.

I think it's a simple design that still looks very elegant. We'll be doing her progams, too!
