A Kitchen Affair | Emily's Bridal Shower

Loved getting to design Emily's bridal shower invitations while designing items for her wedding day as well! She wanted a kitchen themed bridal shower invitation using gray, green, and orange and that is what we did! We created a fun, pop-art inspired design that was printed on white metallic paper and then layered on metallic cardstock. The invitation included a coordinating recipe card for guests to fill out and bring with them. Each invitation was enclosed in a metallic envelope that featured coordinating addressing and return addressing. I love the little teaspoons that we placed by her name on the return! :)

Placecards were designed as tent cards using…

A&E Photobooth | Gift Certificate Design

I had the honor of designing for Eva and Anthony last year and they have since turned into fellow wedding vendors as well by starting their own photo booth company called A&E Photobooth!

We wish both of them tons of success in this new business venture and highly recommend them if you are planning an event!
