Spanish Style Wedding Accessories

Andrea's beautiful wedding accessories to compliment her Spanish Style invitations.

Her color palette is full of rich wines, golds and plums, so for her accessories, we went with a deep plum with gold foil and thermography details.

The menus were die-cut to fit chargers, and are gold foiled, using the same ornate, iron work pattern from her invitations.

Wedding programs were printed on soft cotton paper, then rolled and tied together with gold ribbon.

The weekend itinerary booklet was printed with gold thermography and a timeline of events for the wedding day.

Seating Charts

The wedding season is starting to slow down, which mean lots of accessories for my final projects flying out the door. Last week, I completed 3 seating charts.

Here is a seating chart I did for Karen to go with the Vintage Flourish design from the Inkwell collection. Just another example how you can further customize you wedding paper suite when you chose an Inkwell design.

A super cute seating chart for Adrianna's baptism. (More on that later.)

A seating chart for Beth's 10.10.10 wedding.

Dana's Hindu Wedding Accessories

When I worked with Dana earlier this summer, we did her hindu wedding invitations in cobalt and gold, but her reception is going to be mainly in colors of black, ivory and a hint of green. Therefore, she wanted her wedding accessories to be black and ivory as well.

We did simple programs, printed on heavy ivory cardstock and then scored, and folded. Tented placecards and table names of various places the couple has traveled. I used the same paisley pattern from her invitations throughout the accessories.

Modern and Rustic Wedding Accessories

It's official, Nicole and Eric are married! Here are some photos of what we did her her wedding accessories.
I did programs with rounded corners and ribbon, table "numbers," with each table named after various kinds of wildlife, tented placecards and a fun Mad Lib at each place setting for guests to fill out and for Eric and Nicole to have as a keepsake. Nicole herself was a great help and she did the cute candy bar wrappers as favors. She chose several pictures of when she and Eric were young, we scanned them and she wrapped each candy bar and tied the thank you on all of them!

Congrats Eric and Nicole!

Rustic Rehearsal Dinner Accessories

My brother in law and new sister in law were married last weekend. A few weeks ago, I posted their rustic rehearsal dinner invitations. Here are the placecards and dinner menus to match. I found these birch placecard holders from Vermont Branch Company, an Etsy store.

I put the flower arrangements in birch vases! They were designed to look like bunches of wild flowers with Queen Anne's lace, millet, cattails and ranunculus (that unfortunately didn't bloom in time).

Stay tuned, next week I will post all of the paper goodness from their wedding.

Have a great weekend!

Lauren's Wedding Accessories

I loved Lauren's invitations this season, so when she asked me to design some of her wedding accessories as well, I was more than happy to do so.

She has a very soft color palette so we decided to go with with a blend of her wedding colors for the placecards. Again, the imagery of wheat was used. Instead of traditional number for the tables, Lauren wanted to name the tables after various dairy farms in Vermont.

We did tented table "numbers," and as an added personal detail, she wanted to include what their favorite dairy product was from that particular farm. Very creative!

Birch Tree Wedding Accessories

Not only did I have the opportunity to create Emily's Birch Tree Wedding Invitations, but I also got to design programs and a fun weekend of events z-card for her welcome baskets.

Pink Swirl Wedding Accessories

Peacock Accessoires

A few months back, I did Anjali's save the dates and wedding invitations. She also asked me to create coordinating accessories for her wedding. I carried the peacock theme throughout, along with the Swarovski crystals and vibrant colors.

I did place cards, backed with gold shimmer paper and dotted with ruby and sapphire colored crystals. Her wedding planner, Lindsey Nartker of Lindsey Nartker Designs created silk boards that the place cards hung from.

Tented table numbers and menus. They are actually two-sided, which is a great way to save on the cost and clutter on your table. They are double backed with more crystal accents.

Hanging pocket programs. That were hung on the back of every other chair at the ceremony.

I also did custom bar menus, thank you notes and various signs for the event.

Imperial Chinois Wedding Accessory Design

Mia's wedding is being held at the Conington Hall Estate outside of London. She is having a weekend long celebration and needed plenty of accessories.

Mia and Alex have lived all over the world, including Hong Kong. She wanted to incorporate some of those influences from her travels, including an Imperial Design and the Chinese symbol for double happiness.

I did placecards in alternating grey and yellow, each card with a different design.

Table names that are named after various trees on the Estate.

Three different programs. One for the dinner reception and ceremony,

and one for the welcome baskets in the hotel rooms, complete with a timeline of the weekends events.

Bar menus and tags to hang on their wedding blessing tree.

And the biggest seating chart I have done to date! It is 31/2 ft. by 5ft! It also has an overall diagram of the reception site so that everyone knows where their table is located.

Agric-Chic Accessories

A little while back I did Kylee and Adam's Agric-Chic themed wedding invitations. She also asked me to do her other paper accessories.

I did place cards, table numbers, double sided programs, thank you notes, and my favorite...custom labels for their wedding
favor popcorn.

Both Kylee and Adam come from farming familes, hence the Agric-chic theme. They actually grew the popcorn to give away as favors for their guests. I made the labels to look like the old fashioned popcorn boxes with scalloped edges. We did a cute nutritional label as well.

Jeannine and Fal's Hindu/Christian Wedding Accessories

Jeannine and Fal's wedding just wrapped up the last of our 2009 invitations. It was a pretty end to the season, dontcha think? 

A seating chart with the same intricate pattern from her invitation.

A 3-page program printed on shimmery paper.

Coordinating place cards and thank you notes.

Shaunta's Custom Wedding Accessories

Shaunta's wedding invitations was one of my favorites to work on yet. She had three different patterns throughout the invitation suite and we incorporated each one into her accessories.

We created a custom seating chart.

Table numbers with crystals accents throughout the pattern.

Menus and separate  children's menu's for each guest. She is having Spider Orchids attached to each menu as well. I can't wait to see those pics!

Guest Books and Signature Cocktail Menu with crystal embellishments.

Last but not least, a custom die cut fan with crystals on the front blade and beautiful satin tassels. 

Laura's Accessories

We did Laura's custom swirly monogram invitations a couple of months ago. Initially she thought that she was going to do all of her accessories herself, but as her wedding day was drawing near she decided she just didn't have the time. So she contacted us to do them for her about a week prior to the big day!



We did programs, place cards and tented table numbers that were double sided with a special thank you to their guests. Instead of table favors, they made donations to two causes that were near and dear to their hearts, The Cancer Research Institute and The Special Operations Warrior Foundation. The SOWF is dedicated to providing a college educations to surviving children of fallen special ops forces who lose their lives in battle or training. I thought this was especially touching since the groom's brother is a Ranger and could not attend the wedding.
