These two. I cannot describe to you how much I adore this couple and this picture perfect wedding day. Christina & Douglas were absolute dream clients!

 

They had a very specific design aesthetic, of which they communicated and accomplished perfectly through their custom wedding day paper items. Below are some of our favorite highlights from their snowy November wedding day in Downtown Indianapolis.

 

 

 

This French inspired wedding day at Mojave East in Cincinnat boasts the warmest color scheme. Bethany and Nicholas chose a lovely palette of rich Reds and smooth Terracotta hues to liven up their wedding invitations, wedding flowers and other wedding day decor.

 

 

The couple selected an oversized long flap Red invitation envelope, opting to line the inside of the envelope flap with a French toile patterned paper. The invitation cards were all printed on White cotton cardstock with hand torn deckled edges. Hand drawn floral elements were added throughout the invitation suite to mirror the look of the French toile envelope liner. 

 

 

The stacked cards were bundled in a Terracotta silk ribbon and accented with a monogrammed tag.

The abundance of color was a perfect precursor to this couple's beautiful Spring wedding day!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mojave East has a beautiful and wide open space that is perfect for wedding ceremonies. The wide windows allow for ample natural light, and the white floors and walls are a blank slate for your colorful wedding decor (ensuring that nothing will clash, no matter your decor style)!

 

 

 

Each guest's place setting was accented by a custom place card, printed on White cotton paper. Each card was accented with Terracotta silk ribbon at the top. Guests also enjoyed colorful macarons before dinner was served.

 

 

Each dinner table at the wedding reception featured draped velvet table runners, bold red floral centerpieces, peach colored glass drinkware, and Terracotta tapered candles in gold holders.

One of the most popular wedding venues in Bloomington is the Memorial Union on Indiana University's campus. Sarah and Bradley chose the IU Memorial Union - specifically The Tudor Room - to host their wedding celebration!

 

Their wedding took place on a beautifully sunny day in June, making for beautiful photos courtesy of Aubrey Lynn Photography. Here's a peek at some of our favorite moments and snapshots of Sarah and Bradley's special day....

 

 

 

Their custom wedding invitations featured an elegant Dusty Blue and White color palette. It was important to Sarah that we use environmentally friendly elements within the wedding invitations. Their wedding invitations and monogram tags were printed on a plantable seed paper, with a note for guests to "Let Love Grow" by planting their wedding paper. The invitations were bundled in a lovely dusty blue silk ribbon, to which we tied on their monogram tags. 

 

We created a custom monogram crest for the couple to use throughout their wedding paper and day-of wedding signs. It features their first initials in an elegant serif font, surrounded by a hand drawn laurel wreath. It's one of our favorite monograms from the 2022 wedding season!

 

 

 

 

To also cut back on paper waste, Sarah and Bradley skipped the traditonal response card and envelope, and instead provided guests with online RSVP details. We love this idea! It's something that we are seeing much more of in 2023. 
 
The overall aesthetic of their wedding invitations was polished off with a custom envelope liner with Dusty Blue watercolor roses. Everything about their custom wedding invitation suite was carefully curated by the couple & came together beautifully! 

 

 

 

 

Sarah's bridal style was the essence of classic elegance. Her wedding gown was a perfect fit for their sunshine-y summer day! She carried a lovely bouquet that boasted beautiful blooms in Dusty Blue and White hues. Bradley looked equally dapper with his classic black tux and black bow tie. Aren't they adorable??

 

 

 

 

 

I am always thrilled when couples love their monogram so much, that they use it throughout their wedding day signs! Sarah and Bradley used their custom monogram on their wedding welcome sign, wedding seating chart, small tented menu cards on each table, and other small signs throughout their celebration. Their florist provided perfect floral details to accent their larger signs. 

 

 

 

 

 

Once guests found their table assignment via the custom seating chart, they found their individual seats by way of custom tented place cards. Each place card featured their names in calligraphy, with a subtle design code to denote their pre-selected dinner entree for the catering staff. (Yes, we can help you decipher all of the catering requirements for guest meals, too!)

 

 

 

 

 

The newlyweds enjoyed a sparkler exit after their big celebration - and Aubrey Lynn Photography captured the moment perfectly! 

(Sparklers aren't just for nighttime wedding exits!)

 

 

 

 

We had such a great time working with Sarah & Bradley to help bring their wedding stationery vision to life. We appreciated their desire to keep the invitations as environmentally friendly as possible. The plantable seed paper was such a fun material to bring into our design studio! We can't wait to use it again in the future.

Sending well wishes and a big congratulations to the newlyweds!
