How Lovely is this Fredricksburg Wedding design!! From the florals by Remi + Gold absolutely capturing a delightful romance in a bouquet for Cristina, to the stunning venue itself at Swallows Eve! We came up with perfectly elegant and minimal, yet stunningly formal invitations for this divine bride! We loved how the clean ivory of the invitations matched the venue, alter, and tablescape design with such ease and without skipping a beat!! These vendors really came together to make a beautiful event!

We suggest about 2.5 months before the big day!

We can’t wait to create some of these fun, unique details for your wedding!

As much as we love our southern charm weddings, the other half of us aligns and is so inspired by that rocky mountain bride vibe! We loved being part of this Colorado bride’s big day. Designing the perfect day-of stationery for Kelli and Dan wasn’t hard when the scenery is like a rustic magic fairytale! The location was so naturally gorgeous, that pairing it with divinely simple Programs and Welcome Signs seemed to be the obvious choice!! Complimenting the naturally lush venue with minimalistic stationery was so much fun!

Let’s Talk Monograms!

a monogram design is definitely something worth investing in with your wedding stationery. If you're curious about what you might use it for, keep reading!

Day-Of Details

Monograms are a great way to coordinate your invitation design into your programs, menus, and signage on your wedding day. And paper goods aren't the only place you'll want to incorporate it! We love to create koozies, cocktail napkins, frosted cups, drink stirrers and more with clients' monograms.

Seeing the monogram from your invitations on day-of items will give your guests the impression of a well planned, thought-out event. The design is in the details!

Your Invitation Design

The first place your guests will see your monogram is on your save the dates or invitations. We can incorporate the monogram design on your invitation cards, use it for a custom wax seal, print it on your envelope liner, or all of the above!

You may think of a monogram as something similar to the antique letters pictured here, but we can create a monogram design to go with any wedding style — modern, simple script letters, a watercolor crest, etc.

More Unique Ideas

We've seen a lot of larger than life monogram displays lately. Project your monogram onto a wall in your reception space, have it printed on your dance floor, or display it on the front of a bar.

Our monograms have also been seen on cookies and wedding cakes in frosting, stickers for reception favors, tags and labels for welcome bags, and so much more. We're not kidding when we say there are so many ways you can use a monogram design!

Mention that you're interested in a monogram when you inquire about a custom invitation design or browse the monogram listing on our online shop.

What makes for a better Day-of Stationery accent to your lushly modern ivory and noir wedding than an equally modernly minimalistic Welcome Party Sign, and of course, elegant acrylic seating charts table numbers! This is such a chic way to show a little artistic flair to your classy choices!

Jennifer and Blake had a gorgeous “cowboy sunset” wedding out at the Four Seasons in Austin. This venue alone was perfection with the water to overlook and beautiful ceilings to hang swooping curtains that lay as ivory waves pulling you into the tide of Jennifer and Blake’s love! The unique touch of personality and intimacy was added to this elegantly designed wedding with their custom bar sign we did! Having your pet as an accent to your signature drink description is a fun way to arrive at the bar, revving guests up to have a good time! Thank you so much for letting us bring your loved pet into such a cute signature cocktail sign!
