If you're looking for a unique venue in the Indianapolis area, we highly recommend considering Daniel's Vineyard - a close and convenient option if you're guests are coming from Carmel, Fishers, or anywhere on the Northside.
To showcase this lovely venue, we just had to share this beautiful day from 2018!

This clear acrylic wedding invitation set the tone perfectly for the bride & groom's special day. While the fonts themselves are romantic and elegant, the modern lucite material keeps it more modern. This invitation was paired with custom black matte envelope with a die cut flap, which featured a full floral envelope liner. Talk about some "WOW" factors in an invitation!

On the big day, the couple started off their wedding photos with a stroll through the grapevines at Daniel's Vineyard. What a serene setting for their pre-wedding portraits! Talk about a romantic photo op. Michelle from Rakoteet Photography captured the love between the happy couple perfectly.



Isn't the bride's bouquet magnificent? It doesn't get any more romantic than those red roses and burgundy floral accents. The florals for this wedding were provided by our friend Keatha at Knox Flowers. If you're looking for a florist who has a classic and romantic style, she's your girl! She always knows how to pull together the wedding style and colors perfectly into the wedding flowers. She has many years of experience as a Central Indiana florist, and we always get SO excited when we hear our clients have booked her - she is one of the best in the business.


One of the perks of having your wedding at Daniel's Vineyard - the wine! They have a variety to choose from, and you never have to worry about them running out during your reception. They can also steer you in the direction of which wines will pair best with your selected wedding reception menu. Perhaps you could even gift your guests with a bottle to take home? If you appreciate good wine, this wedding venue is perfect for you!



For the reception, Keatha at Knox Flowers provided a combination of tall floral-adorned candelabra centerpieces and shorter centerpieces, varying by table. The event stylist, Brooke from Uncommonly Styled, completed the wedding reception tables with a variety of details and textures. For the shorter centerpeices, she paired them with black pillar candles and candle holders for romantic eye-level candlelight. Unique textures and details were added in the form of fresh artichokes and figs, along with black stemware and metallic votive holders.

For the newlyweds and their wedding reception guests, we created an oval wedding menu card to go at each place setting. The menu featured burgundy and soft red florals, printed with a black background and white text. Completing our clients' custom wedding menu card was a scripted monogram printed at the top. All of the fonts matched those used on their clear wedding invitation, and the florals matched those used in the invitation envelope, ensuring all printed materials are cohesive in design. (Coordinating details such as these are SO important when branding and styling your wedding day!)
For this special day, we also teamed up with Brooke at Uncommonly Styled for a custom photo backdrop sign. The backdrop was placed behind the head table as an accent piece, and was later moved and served as a photo booth area for wedding guests. The backdrop featured a faux brick wall, along with a laser cut wood sign we created. The phrase "the best is yet to come" was selected by the bride and groom, as it has special meaning to the couple.


This event's style and color scheme were so unique - it was a blast to coordinate with all vendors listed below. It's amazing what a great wedding vendor team can pull off on wedding day!! Congrats to the happy couple!

You can never go wrong with a classic black and white wedding, especially when you toss in elegant dashes of golds and soft neutrals. This was the color palette our clients, Jennie & Mark, selected for their nuptials in downtown Indianapolis.
Their special day began with a full mass Catholic wedding ceremony at Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church in downtown Indianapolis. This church is one of our favorite ceremony spots in the Indianapolis area. The historical cathedral is simply breathtaking and a perfect setting for something as intimate and sacred as a wedding ceremony. For their wedding ceremony, we created a folded program booklet, featuring the couple's monogram on the front. We added elegance to the program booklet with a thin black satin ribbon tied around the binding. It set the tone perfectly for what was to come....







After the ceremony, guests made their way to the Indiana Repertory Theater (one of our favorite wedding reception venues!). They were greeted by a beautiful welcome sign printed onto an antique mirror, live music from Endless Summer Band, and a cocktail hour - complete with a custom signature drink themed for the bride and groom.
Following the lively cocktail hour, guests received a glass of champagne, which also doubled as their seating escort card...leading them to their designated table and seat in the reception area. The theater was decorated with an abundance of string lights (always a romantic touch!), soft white floral centerpiece arrangements and accents by The Empty Vase, black chivari chairs, and beautiful uplighting. Each guest's place setting was personalized and marked with a laser cut gold mirror acrylic name plate, which doubles as a keepsake from the evening. Tucked into each guest's black silk napkin was a custom menu card, featuring the couple's wedding crest printed in metallic gold foil. (Their menu card also included a personal thank you note from the bride & groom - an addition we highly recommend! It ensures your guests know just how much you appreciate their attendance & how much you're looking forward to celebrating the evening with them.)



The couple's wedding cake was created by the ever popular Heavenly Sweets, located in Noblesville. The bride and groom kept the overall cake style to a classic look, with subtle textures and monochromatic ribbon and monogram. The Empty Vase also added a few floral touches, to soften the overall look.

Jennie & Mark's special day was planned and pulled together beautifully by the team at Jessica Dum Weddings. It's always lovely working with Jessica and her talented team, and we know our clients are always in great care when the select her as their day-of wedding coordinator.


We can't forget to thank our pal, Jessica Strickland for these incredibly beautiful photos! She is such a talented photographer - if you're still looking for a wedding photographer, look no further! She's the best in Indy!

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Mill Top is a 140-year-old converted flour mill, and a true gem of a venue located in central Indiana. The Mill Top lends it’s beautiful exposed brick walls, wrought iron railings, and original harwood floors as a perfect backdrop for any wedding or event. This past Spring, we created custom wedding invitations and wedding day stationery for a lovely day held at this historic spot.

Aren't these two so adorable?? They're dancing in front of their soon-to-be ceremony space, with complimentary wall lights provided by The Mill Top and floral accents by Carolyn at A Blossom Collective. Carolyn created the most beautiful balance of greenery and mauve pink florals throughout their special day. The florals carried through the entire day cohesively, with the bride's bouquet featuring many of the florals used in the ceremony backdrop. In a sea of traditional Midwest wedding trends, I love that this local Indiana florist isn't afraid of texture and a more romantic, natural floral arranging and bouquet style!

The bride's flawless makeup and hair updo were done by Melissa at Something Blue Stylists, with her dress and accessories courtesy of Trudie's Bridal and Formal Wear. The groom is also sporting some fashionable menswear from Trudie's! (We don't blame them from getting all of their apparel in one stop, Trudie's bridal store offers so many options!)


The couple's wedding invitation was a clear acrylic card with mauve paint, and featured custom spot calligraphy contributed by Megan at Painted Letter Co. The clear acrylic invitation helped set a modern tone for the wedding, while the mauve pink floral envelope liner pulled in soft and subtle details to the overall invitation suite.




Isn't this custom cake absolute perfection?? The marbled, painted look and various color tones of each layer were even prettier in person. Not to mention, this luscious overabundance of roses takes this cake's elegance over the top. The cake was provided by Nakia at Fork and Function, with the florals by A Blossom Collective.
The cake sits atop a vintage barrel, provided by the venue. In lieu of a cake topper (I mean, who would want to distract from those florals??), we provided the clients with a custom laser cut wooden "R" monogram to display with the cake table's florals.
The reception space was nothing short of amazing - with bare wooden tables, luxurious fabric table runners, lots of greenery, candlelight everywhere, and SO many roses, the wedding reception tables themselves were a sight to see! Carolyn at A Blossom Collective knocked it out of the park again, with the help of Nakia at Fork and Function and her incredible event styling skills.





For the menus, we borrowed a touch more spot calligraphy from Megan at Painted Letter Co. (we just adore her work!), and finished them off with blush pink silk ribbon bows tied at the top. They dressed up each guest's place setting and accented the tables' floral hues perfectly.


If you're looking for a unique venue in the central Indiana area, we highly recommend checking out The Mill Top! Wishing our clients the best & sending them a big congratulations! Enjoy newlywed life!

Wondering what life is like for a busy mom with a graphic design & laser cutting business? My days are filled with pretty paper, blissful brides, half-finished sketchbooks, half-eaten lunches, and lots of cuddling with my little ones. I look forward to sharing with you all of life's fun happenings (both in & out of the studio) here on the blog!
