Tropical resort elegance meets sophistication with (of course) a whole lot of creativity mixed in. I love how Caroline embraced the all the artistic possibilities and really let me run with this piece. I wanted to capture the movement and vibrancy in her painting which was not only a nod to her favorite linen inspiration but captured the essence of oceans and sea plant life. I mixed in the bamboo natural materials on the cover and finished the presentation with a custom Jamaican pineapple illustration which is a symbol of welcome and good cheer.
With a winter wedding in Maine, I wanted to create a design that elegantly said winter but not through the obvious ways. A frosted light blue palette paired with touches of antique golds and creamy shimmers, communicated a snowy sophistication through ornate designs. I sprinkled in little birds, snowflakes and acorns to give a nod to the outdoor beauty of the Foxhill venue. I created vintage escort card tags that dangled in the tree branches next to metallic ornaments for guests. The couple’s logo proudly marked their invitation sleeve which we carried throughout at the event signifying their new union together.
Australian heritage, an old Post Office landmark building paired with a desire to create a Parisian artisanal feel for a party on New Year’s Eve provided the perfect ingredients for a design challenge. From the beginning Lara was ready to make a one-of-kind statement. I turned the invitation on its side and slipped it into an ultra luxe sleeve, giving classic design a revival. Sealed with a sticker fashioned like an old postage stamp (a nod to the venue’s history). The sleeve presented their custom Ceci logo. Guests couldn’t wait to celebrate the dual occasions!
Inspired by the ceiling of the Palm Court at the famous Plaza Hotel in New York City, this design had to encompass all the grandeur and beauty of the venue. I love that Erin was not afraid to put a modern spin on the classic invite. I created my own rendition of the spectacular glass ceiling which boldly presents itself on the back of her invitation – their monogram center stage. Paired with hand drawn details of the ornate tiling patterns and flowing gilded filigree that adorns the columned walls of the space. Printed in antique shades of golds with a hint of soft apricot mixed in. Classic elegance redefined!
Inspired by the ornate grandeur of St. Catherine’s Palace in Russia, luxurious purple velvet, gold foil with mixes of opulent gold lace combine together to create this incredibly luxe stationery suite. The save the dates, in both Russian and English, were sent in handmade purple boxes. Guests opened metal clasps on the gold-laced folder to reveal the beautiful invitation in gold foil on thick cream stock. RSVP and travel cards were presented in ribbon pockets on the sides. My goal was to create a tastefully elaborate design that captured the essence of Angelina and Ryan. “It’s so us!” they cried gratefully.
