Becca and Grant said "I do" at Becca's family ranch. The couple wanted to lean into the natural landscape, while staying true to their brightly colored formal affair. The weekend kicked off with a rehearsal dinner at the historic Hotel Settles. The theme of the event was Western so we created a cowboy themed invitation featuring bucking bronco, lasso and cowboy hat in navy and gold foil. The wedding invitation was more formal with a custom scalloped monogram featuring floral and birds in shades of blue, letterpress printed. The suite contained a coordinating scalloped welcome party invitation and pocket to keep the pieces of the suite organized. At the ceremony, petal bags featuring the couple's monogram were passed out to guests. Upon entering the reception area, guests found their seats amongst the groom's personal vinyl collection with escort "cards" that imitated vinyls with each guests' name and table number. The place setting for each guest featured a scalloped menu with a rope three dimensionally blind embossed along the edges. The couple's custom bar featured inserts with same branch and bird theme found within the couple's monogram. The signage, favors and more carried the same aesthetic set with the invitation suite for cohesive feel throughout the day.

Devyn and Marc were planning two weddings — one in Australia, where Marc calls home, and one in Texas, where Devyn grew up. For their Texas wedding, the couple wanted an upscale, Texan vibe. We began with the couple's monogram, which was inspired by a cattle brand. The invitation suite was paired with a leather band for rustic texture, and a classy black invitation box to present their guests with. The guests each received a copy of the bride's favorite book as a wedding favor, complete with custom blind embossed leather bookmark. The books also helped guests find their seats, as each were wrapped with paper noting each person’s name and table assignment. The couple's wedding took place in November 2020, so instead of masks for the guests, we created bandanas with a custom map of the resort — useful and fun! The couple's menu was on four-ply card stock, black letterpress with bronze metal corners as a nod to spurs. The monogram was also seen on the couples' welcome cards, hotel door hangers and late night snack to-go boxes.

Paige and Justin loved a modern aesthetic. For their wedding, we created an oval floral monogram. The suite was printed in sage green letterpress and their names were blind embossed. The envelope liner was white velvet, with their floral pattern and monogram blind embossed. For the ceremony, we created gold mirrored acrylic signage that attached to a floral arrangement stand. The couple's first date was in 2020, during COVID, so their first date was at Sonic and they had cherry limeades. The escort display was a tribute to this first date with each guest getting a spiked cherry limeade with a stir stick in the shape of a cherry with their name and table number assignment. The backdrop for their reception also used their floral pattern and monogram in neon. Each place setting had an oval menu in sage velvet, with their floral pattern and monogram blind embossed, and tied with a blush ribbon.

Janie and Jake were immersed in all things rodeo — he, a bronc rider, and she, a reporter for Cowboy Television. Janie had always imagined getting married on her family's ranch, and wanted something reflective of the location, but still formal enough for a wedding. We created a custom monogram with a horseshoe and the couple's intertwined initials, which was showcased on a metal belt-buckle and tied to the suite with silk ribbon. The invitation featured a watercolor illustration of the canyon in which they would be wed, and was backed to leather inspired paper with fold-out map of the ranch and surrounding area. The guests found their seats via a floral horseshoe seating chart display, each table number was a metal buckle, with guest name printed underneath. Beneath the tented reception space, guests discovered a delightful menu with horseshoe, western style table numbers, place cards, and custom bar sign. The bride's favorite snack was popcorn, so guests got a treat of their own with monogramed popcorn bag.

Laura Lee and Connor planned an elegant New Year's Eve wedding with a dash of their fun-loving personalities sprinkled in. To start, we created a custom crest to adorn the clear acrylic invitation suite, with accompanying pieces in dusty blue and navy. Coordinating programs guided guests through the ceremony. Upon entering the reception space, guests were greeted by an expansive wall of Champagne flutes to not only get them in the spirit but help them find their seat for dinner. Throughout the reception, guests could relax in the lounge, which boasted decorative pillows sporting the couple’s monogram. To get the party started, signature cocktails, which were illustrated for reference, were served in customized disco ball cups. The crest appeared a few times throughout the reception, most noticeably on the dance floor, and again on the menus, embroidered dinner napkins, and even the glass covers. The thoughtful bride and groom provided Texas-themed bandanas customized with their wedding date, alongside cowboy hats, as a festive mask-alternative and to don as midnight approached.

Emily and Jeff's wedding was a union of heritage and their stunning destination‚ The Little Nell, in Colorado.  The invitation suite and save the date featured a soft water color of the Colorado Mountains, and aspen tree leaves, printed in burgundy letterpress with blush accents. The suite was packaged with gold thread — with the couple's names and the Chinese symbol for happiness. The suite also included an invitation to the Tea Ceremony for a select portion of guests, printed on burgundy with gold foil stamp. The couple's escort cards were tea bag tags in burgundy with gold foil and a cup of tea for each guest! The design set with the save the date and invitation suite was carried through to their day-of pieces to include oval menus with gold tassels, welcome signage, table numbers and more.

Sophia and Kevin were born and raised in Sacramento, but did not meet until college at Berkley. After they graduated, they relocated to Austin for work and visited the Dallas Arboretum, and knew one day that is where they would marry.  The couple envisioned a crest with their gold, sage and yellow color palette to carry throughout the event. The invitation featured metallic gold thermography, ridged recycled cotton paper and a sage green velvet envelope liner. The suite was bound with a vellum wrap, gold cord and a wax seal peppered with gold foil flakes. Sophia and Kevin wanted their guest to feel special, so they curated welcome bags with a coordinating a welcome note, cookies with their monogram, and other treats for the weekend. Their ceremony program also used their monogram, and a peachy silk ribbon. The guests each received a bottle of wine with thank you wine label and wax seal as a favor. The circular bar was adorned with their custom monogram crest and their signature drink was a mojito — complete with water color illustration of the beverage. The place settings completed the look with vellum band and wax seal to set the tone for the reception.

Ceili and Greg envisioned fall nuptials with a robust colors scheme. The invitation was printed on semi-transparent vellum and attached to a taupe backer featuring red fall leaves with copper grommets. The suite was packaged in a metallic copper pocket and dusty blue envelope. The guests were greeted by an acrylic champagne wall with their escort cards on the stem. At the table, each guest's place card was tied to their menu with burgundy velvet ribbon. The couple also used coordinating signage to include a signature drink sign with water color artwork of their dogs, table numbers and cards and gifts signage.

Julianna and James, with roots in Texas, decided to exchange marriage vows at the iconic Hotel Drover, in the historic Fort Worth Stockyards. The main element the couple desired was a brand-style monogram. The couple's double-J's intertwined perfectly with the couple's married name!

The suite was bound with vellum band, rose silk ribbon, and antique copper wax seal. The envelopes were a peachy-pink, adorned with curated vintage postage.

At the table, the guests perused a coordinating menu, with heart-felt thank you from Julianna and James. Their brand-style monogram was carried through to bar signage and the cake, creating a cohesive look for the entire day.
