Chris + Jana's Winter Wedding

As the weather cools down + the leaves begin to fall, we're taking some time to be thankful. Thankful for family, wonderful friends, football season, the end of wedding season and of course, the pumpkin spice latte. PSL!! With this gloomy + cooler weather, we are dreaming of winter weddings + felt it was only appropriate to share Jana + Chris’ wedding.

People say “it’s good luck if it rains on your wedding day”, so if it snows, it must be extra special. Chris + Jana's wedding was absolutely stunning + we were so honored to be part of their wedding planning process! 

When we first met with Jana to discuss her wedding and vision for the stationery, we were taken back by how beautiful + sweet she is. We were excited to get started on designing something unique + special for her + Chris! Each piece of their stationery is centered around their vision which is a combination of rustic and elegance, just like their venue, Devil's Thumb Ranch. This vision was beautifully carried out through each detail of their Big Day. 

Grab a fuzzy throw + a warm cup of tea or cocoa and get scrolling! Winter is coming!!

Kurt + Kaitlin's Gorgeous Mountain Wedding

Happy Love Month! It only seemed fitting to post Kurt + Kaitlin’s wedding because we love these two + loved being part of their wedding planning process! Creating custom stationery for a couple’s big day is so very special to us and this one was no different. We sought to create something unique for Kurt + Kait and something that would be a wonderful first impression of their wedding day for their guests.

Many of their guests were coming from out of state, so it was important to them that their invitations suite had a touch of Colorado. We incorporated this through a topographic map liner, a watercolor mountainscape RSVP postcard and a weekend details booklet. The booklet included accommodations, fun things to do in Grandby + tips for dealing with the altitude.

These two truly got the most beautiful Colorado day in the Rocky Mountains! Their joy is just contagious + we can't help but smile when looking through their photos! People traveled near and far for their special day and it's incredibly evident how loved these two are!

Congratulations Kurt + Kaitlin and thank you for letting us be part of your special day!

Jennifer + Matthew

This wedding is sure giving us all the #fridayfeels today! We absolutely adored working with Jennifer + Matthew from start to finish. From our initial consultation, it was so obvious how madly in love these two are! Creating their stationery was one of our favorite parts of the 2016 season. Their wedding was so dreamy and we couldn’t wait to share all the images! One of the most special aspects of their big day was how they commemorated Jennifer’s mother who had passed away earlier this year. Enjoy all the gorgeous details captured by Rene Tate Photography and coordinated by Claire Williams of We Tie the Knots at the Denver Botanical Gardens and Four Seasons Denver. Congrats you two and thanks for letting us be part of your big day!

Escort Card Display Inspiration

Happy Summer!! We can’t believe it’s already July- this summer has been flying by for us! It’s probably due to the fact that this year has been crazy busy! Our studio has been abuzz with new clients & new projects! We can’t wait to share more of all we have been up to! Today we are taking some time to write about escort card displays and sharing some photos of our recent work as inspiration! We always get couples that are struggling to come up with ideas and are tired of spending hours searching on Pinterest. This is where we come in! Below are some of our favorite escort card displays to get those juices flowing!

Before you start scrolling, here are a few little hints to keep in mind when choosing your escort card display:

• Location, Location, Location- Where you are choosing to tie the knot is key! Mountain weddings are a great place for Aspen Leaves while Four Season Weddings call for something a little more sparkly- Cheers!
• Consider the Elements- If your wedding is outside, do your planner a favor and keep in mind gusts of wind ;)
• Guest Count- Take into account the number of guests attending. The larger the wedding, the more escort cards and space needed for your display.
• 2 for 1 Deal- If you are giving out favors at the wedding, it can be fun to include them in your escort cards display. Jars of honey and little bags of coffee beans are fun favors and can double as an escort card with the guest's name and table attached.

Though some of our work below was created as place cards, just add a table number and ta-da you have a beautiful escort card :) Enjoy!
