Yesterday we shared the save the dates and invitations from Missy and Garrett’s late summer wedding – now, here are some of the details from their wedding day. First of all, check out the amazing weather – sunny, warm, and gorgeous blue sky (which is nothing to sneeze at here in the Pacific Northwest).

The sunny details were put together by Missy’s amazing team of professionals: wedding coordination was by Keri Cooper from Bliss Events, styling and floral design were by Collected Design. We worked closely with Missy to create programs, menus, escort cards, table numbers, and signage for the event. One of my favorite details from the day is the garden cart where they displayed the escort cards in grass. Beautiful!

Thank you so much to Abbi from Simply Photography for sharing these beautiful images from the wedding day and thank you to Missy and Garrett for letting us be a part of your planning process!

One of our favorite couples we’ve had the privilege of working with this year are the lovely Missy and Garrett, who were married in September on a gorgeous Seattle day at the bride’s family’s home. I shared a sneak peak of their invitations last spring – here are more details from their colorful invitation suite.

Missy and Garrett chose offset printing for their invitations and save the date, which was a perfect option as it allowed us to use large areas of color and reversed text and images. We love their color choices (especially the pop of aqua in the envelopes, which brightens up the gray and yellow in the printed pieces).

Missy and Garrett’s wedding photographer, Abbi from Simply Photography, was kind enough to share some STUNNING details from their wedding day – stay tuned tomorrow for some of the details from their outdoor ceremony and reception!

The air is cooler here in Seattle, and the leaves have started to change! I love fall!

It’s been a while since we’ve properly posted anything (apologies!) but Jonathan and I are in the studio working hard on custom designs for upcoming spring 2010 weddings! If you are planning a spring/summer wedding for 2010 now is a great time to get started – especially with the great offer we have going right now (FREE letterpress thank you cards – customized to match your invitations – with any order over $1000.00. Additional details can be found here).

It’s been a busy month – and the next few months will continue to be busy! We’ve been working furiously on “day-of” items for our September and October  weddings – here’s a sneak peek of one of those projects that I will be delivering later today.

You might remember the adorable “our story continues…” save the dates that we blogged about several months ago. The wedding those save the dates belong to is rapidly approaching (it’s next month!) and we have some stunning letterpress invitations to share with you!

The bride and groom, who have been absolutely lovely to work with, had a very clear vision of what they’d like in their wedding stationery – and these beautiful two color letterpress invitations fit the bill. They kept things sweet and simple by using a petite website card, encouraging guests to rsvp online. I don’t know that the photos really show it, but a Swaovski crystal accents the letterpress design perfectly. Their gold envelopes were accented by a very special quote offset printed on the back flap – “For hearing my thoughts, understanding my dreams and being my best friend, for filling my life with joy and loving me without end, I do.” {anonymous}

Speaking of letterpress (did you see yesterday’s big offer?) check out these lovelies we created for an upcoming September wedding! The bride and groom are planning a gorgeous celebration at the Inn at Spanish Bay in Pebble Beach (you MUST check out the website for this place – it’s AMAZING!). We worked with the bride to create these elegant letterpress invitations in chocolate brown on pearl white 100% cotton paper.

One of my favorite things about this suite is that the bride chose chocolate brown envelopes and had her return address offset printed in cream on the back flap. This is such a fun choice – it’s a cost-saver over having your return address letterpressed, and the cream on chocolate is still elegant and yet unexpected. The bride chose Laura Hooper to calligraph the guest addresses, which she hand-lettered in cream ink (stunning!).

We are working with Katie and Dave right now on their wedding day items – programs, menus, etc. I can’t wait to see how everything comes together!

We wanted to share a quick sneak peek at a job we delivered a couple weeks ago. Since the wedding hasn’t happened yet, we can’t show too much.

Needless to say, it’s another really fun project we got to work on and are excited to see the results. The gray and yellow color scheme is bright and fresh. Our clients were able to keep the set budget-friendly by using only one ink and adding pops of color with bright yellow envelopes.

We’ll be sure to show more detail after their event.

It has been such a long time since I’ve shared any sneak peeks of our current work, so I thought I’d share a little goodness with you all today! This website is not complete yet, but we expect it to launch in the next two weeks (at which point you’ll all get to see more fabulousness!)

In the meantime though, I thought I’d share some snippets to whet your appetites – this website has been so much fun to work on and I can’t wait to share more! (Plus the client happens to be super fab, so we’ll share the details on her as well!)

Here is another sneak peek for another custom wedding invitation order we’ve been working on, this time in shades of purple, grass green, and bright white. The invitation is foil-embossed on metallic purple paper and is absolutely stunning in person (the photos don’t do it justice!) The additional pieces are offset printed in deep purple ink on thick white cardstock and the entire set is packaged nicely in a grassy green inner envelope.

More photos to follow later, but for now, here’s a taste!

I finally got around to taking some photos this week of some recent work, so I will be posting a few little peeks of what we’ve been up to this week!

This invitation suite is so much fun! The invitations won’t go out to their guests for another couple of months, so I can’t post too much yet. But those of you who follow us on twitter might remember me tweeting about an invitation suite in gray, canary yellow, and aqua. This is that set – and it’s so cute and fresh – I can hardly wait for those to be mailed out!
