25th Anniversary Celebration

As soon as I laid my eyes on these gorgeous images, I knew this was going to be the perfect way to kick off my day.   You know a party is beyond gorgeous when you wish you were on the invite list. The event was held at Luigi’s Deli.   I can’t tell you what I love most – A dreamy Dessert Table filled with all sorts of delicious treats by Debbie Brule from Sweet Surrender, the elegant floral centerpieces by Amanda Klawitter of House of Flowers.   Kelli of Kelli’s Keepsake Photography captured all the elegant details.  The lovely ladies of Fairy Godmother effortlessly pulled together all of these details with such perfection.

Nicole + Daniel’s Shabby Chic Lace Wedding Invitations

I absolutely love working with my brides and love the relationship I build with my couples and their families.  Nicole is an absolute doll!  I love it when we’re given a bit of direction (pink and shabby chic vintage) and then we’re allowed to go with it.  We created the wedding invitations, RSVP cards, and custom wedding postage to match the invitation.  We used a little bit of calligraphy to address the envelopes for mailing.
Irma Green of Simply Shabby Chic Event Planning coordinated their wedding.  It was so much fun!
A couple of weeks back we showed you the video by R&C Films.  You can check our past post about it here.
The lovely Melissa Gilden of Melisa-Gilden-Photography captured the wedding day.
What a beautiful wedding and I’m so THANKFUL to be a small part of it!

10 Things You Should Never Say To Your Stationer

10 Things You Should Never Say To Your StationerToday I wanted to share with you an article that is so well-written and answers many of the questions I get asked frequently. It was written by the owner of Lion In The Sun Paperie in Park Slope, Brooklyn and appeared in The Huffington Post Weddings section on April 20, 2012.

In my opinion it’s an important read for anyone looking to make a stationery/invitation purchase.  Here are the highlights but please follow the link to read the article in full here.

 10 Things You Should Never Say To Your Stationer

1.  ”They are just going to end up in the garbage anyway”

2. ”It’s only paper, why is it so expensive?”

3. ”I could do that myself on my home computer and print it.”

4.  ”Can you just make me one and I can just photocopy or email a scan of it to everyone?”

5. ”I know I approved the proof, but we changed the time of the wedding.”

6. ”But we only need eight more invitations.”

7. ”I left the invitations in the trunk of my car and then went to the car wash” or “We were drinking red wine while assembling the invitations…”

8. “We’ve addressed all our envelopes already, but I mail-merged the guest list incorrectly and all the zip codes are incorrect, what do you mean you don’t check each of our guests’ zip codes for us?”

9. ”I sealed the envelopes and I realized I forgot to stamp the reply cards” or “We just used regular postage and dropped them in the mailbox on the street.”

10.  ”We would like to put ‘monetary gift only’ on the invitation.”
