Winery Wedding Invitations

Sunday, June 20th, 2010

Denise and Adam truly had a unique vision for their invitations.  With the help of their talented friend, Nestor, and the design skills of Kayleigh Jankowski, this couple selected invitations that not only reflect a clever wedding logo (DnA), but that also showcase the elegance and refinement of their day. We can’t wait for their July winery wedding!  Printing and paperie courtesy of Cards and Pockets and thanks to Abigail Hancock for the gorgeous calligraphy!

A Perfect Spring Luncheon

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

Last week I was lucky enough to be a guest at the FaceTime Beauty Concierge ladies’ luncheon! We feasted on amazing food by Cobblestone Catering, enjoyed the vintage inspired music of Loukoum from Elan Artists and enjoyed the company of our beautiful hostess, Linsey Snyder Wachalter of FaceTime Beauty Concierge as well as many other creative industry friends.

Isn’t this just the perfect setting? The flowers (especially the spectacular purple vanda orchids) are perfect for any garden party, baby shower or bridal shower, and were created by Caroline of L’Atelier Rouge.  The picture-perfect stationery was a custom design by the wonderful Bridget from B-Dub Productions.  Thanks to Mel Barlow for capturing the day!

A Brilliant Wedding: Lorraine & Dave, Reception

Friday, May 7th, 2010

Lorraine & Dave’s reception was a dramatic Spring Soiree filled with shades of salmon and green at the Millennium Broadway’s Hudson Theater.  The garden-inspired centerpieces from Rountree Flowers highlighted blush-colored peonies – an ideal bloom for this spring wedding design!  The escort cards were on a show-stopping bed of pave flowers – a mixture of spider mums, hydrangea and roses. Guests enjoyed a caramel apple favor for their “Big Apple” wedding symbolizing a donation to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering foundation made by the couple. The entire stationery suite was designed by the talented Kayleigh Jankowski and printed by Cards and Pockets and included a hand-drawn rendition of the cathedral and NYC skyline.

We still have one more set of amazing images from this special day, stay tuned!

Coaster-Inspired Wedding

I came across this beautiful coaster by Nectar Ale at a local pub and loved the color palette so much that had to create an inspiration board for it!  Just goes to show that your event inspiration can come from anywhere.

Library Wedding: Part 2 of 3

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

The reception of Molly & Mark’s gorgeous library wedding took place at 91 with delicious catering by the Upper Crust. Custom stationery was created exclusively for the bride & groom by Megan Guerin and appeared on everything from the escort cards to the menus to the drink coasters.  Crystal chandeliers courtesy of Jersey Street Furniture framed the space and created the “family dinner” ambiance that the thoughtful bride & groom envisioned.

A single orchid was placed on each placesetting and the centerpieces were elegant, highly-textured florals by Rountree Flowers.  Cocktail centerpieces were a nod to the vintage aspect of the wedding and were an assortment of letterpress blocks. The linens, chairs and chargers are courtesy of Party Rental Ltd.  

All of these great shots are from Zlatko Batistich, photographer extraordinaire!We have one more set of photos from this marvelous wedding so stay tuned!

A New Option for Something Blue

Sunday, October 18th, 2009

Here is a stunning new way to add a splash of color to your wedding dress! Ashley of 2BirdStone has created a crinoline-dyeing service for your wedding dress. It’s the perfect way to add a little sass and color into your otherwise pristine dress and for a budget-friendly price of $23.

First, you pick a color – perhaps a bright blue for your “something blue” or my favorite – the delicate blush pink. See the full color palette on her Etsy shop. Then, you send her your crinoline… in 5 business days, you have it back in your perfectly dyed hue. Check out these photos of her amazing work!

Carol & Ed’s Shabby Chic Wedding

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009

We created a shabby chic wedding theme for Carol & Ed’s wedding day at Perona Farms in Andover, NJ.  The eye candy photos below are from Mariann at Blue Daisy Weddings - she is such a talented photographer and always a dream to work with.  The pink and violet color palette was started with these spectacular invitations by Inky Livie. Florals were done by Stem and Company and featured a mixture of crystal and silver vessels gathered from antique shops and flea markets to really emphasize the shabby chic theme.  The beautiful violet pintuck linens set off the vibrant centerpieces and were courtesy of Laurie at Cloth Connection.

Sachiko Yanase worked her magic and did fantastic hair and makeup for all of the ladies and the super-friendly Mike Burns from Infinite Video captured the day on video as it unfolded. Marge Fitts provided the angelic harp music for the ceremony and cocktail hour and DJ Medina had the guests dancing all evening. The night closed with a jaw-dropping fireworks display by Celebration Fireworks.
