{Featured Clients} Well Wed - Katie & Pete

Katie & Pete sitting in a tree, first came love, then came marriage...

Katie & Pete were married in October at Ocean House in Watch Hill, Rhode Island. Even though it's not Wednesday and I cannot technically say that this is a "Wordless Wednesday" post, the pictures of their wedding need few words. Gorgeous, elegant and spectacular are the three that immediately come to mind. So amazing was their special day that it was featured in the Little Black Book of Style Me Pretty.

We created for Katie & Pete the table number cards as well as the Thank You notes placed at each table setting. The breathtaking florals are masterpieces designed by Yumiko at Hana Floral Design and the stunning photos by Trish of Snap!Photography captured the flawlessness of their elegant event. Enjoy!

The setting: Ocean House in Watch Hill, Rhode Island

The beautiful bride!

I love these J. Crew bridesmaids dresses; the navy/orange combination is absolutely stunning.

Pete looking dapper in his navy suit and orange tie!

Anders Ruff designed this Thank You note (placed at each setting), as well as the table number cards (shown behind the flowers & lamp on this table).

And they lived happily ever after!

Thank you Katie and Pete for letting us share your wedding day.

{Team Collaboration} Presenting: Anders Ruff Custom Designs, Calligraphy by Jennifer and LMG Events

Our Romantic Valentine Printable Collection was so much fun to design as we joined forces this season with the beautiful and very talented:

Jennifer Gillespie
from Calligraphy by Jennifer

and

Mara Marian-Hardwood
from LMG Event

Jennifer sent us hand-written Valentine words in her stunning calligraphy, and we turned it into vector graphics to use on our printable designs. We just LOVED the styling of her work, and knew that incorporating her talent was just what we needed for this romantic collection.

We then teamed up with party stylist and event planner, Mara, who printed the collection and used the graphics to enhance her Romantic Valentine Wedding photoshoot.

She put such a gorgeous spin on our graphics, and the end results were breath-taking.

Wouldn't this collection be just perfect for a bridal shower, or a night at home with your special someone? It also, can be used for family valentine's day parties as well!

We just L-O-V-E how Mara mixed elements of old with a modern twist...

All the calligraphy words were"Calligraphy by Jennifer" originals!

Mara used our fold-over labels as full-length to give a dramatic look - so fun!

Thanks ladies for a fabulous collaboration!

{Client Party} Teddy Bear Confectionary

Happy New Year!

We wanted to kick-off January with a spectacular Teddy Bear Confectionary Birthday Party all the way from Brazil.

An amazing client of ours, Luciana, contacted us last year to design her daughter's 1st birthday party invitation, along with other matching graphic printable accessories.

As we designed each piece of the collection (in Portuguese), we had no idea to what extent Luciana would go to with every design.

The end results are breath-taking.... we were speechless, as we viewed the photos.

From the hand-delivered cupcake invitations to the endless desserts, balloons and teddy bear topiaries, she thought of every detail possible! Words can't describe how amazing this party was!

You are going to be blown away by this FABULOUS birthday soiree!
(We had to include EVERY photo, because it is too unbelieveable unless you see it ALL!)
