Regina & Fred

Congratulations to my brother-in-law Fred and his new bride Regina who got married this past Saturday. It was an amazing and fun wedding. Regina & Fred looked fabulous and of course didn't stop dancing til after the night was over. This is their wedding invitation that I created as well as place cards and table numbers. The program included the wedding party, menu and traditional Persian ceremony. Their photographer, Jason Lee, has already posted their pictures on his blog. Amazing!

Wedding in a Week Couple

Congratulations to Jaclyn & Chad for winning the Wedding in a Week contest! We met this past Monday and came up with this design for their wedding programs. They are an awesome couple and the very little time I got to know them, they are so grateful for all the vendors help in making this wedding become an amazing adventure. 100 programs were designed, cut, and assembled in less than 48 hours. Thanks to my husband for the extra help! Each guests' chair will have a program greeting them as they are seated and witness a weeks worth of awesome craziness all put together for the big event. Jaclyn will be here first thing in the morning to pick them up and then on to Hotel Sorella for Friday's big event. Their wedding will be aired Monday morning on Channel 55 between 6-10am. The newlyweds will also be at the Houston Wedding Showcase this Saturday at the George R. Brown Convention Center showcasing their big day.

Wedding in a Week

Last month, Houston Wedding Showcase sent out an email to all vendors to see who would like to participate in Wedding in a Week. Of course I was really interested! The couple will be chosen on February 19 and the entire wedding will be put together in one week. About a week ago, I was called to see if I was interested in participating and donating my stationery to the lucky couple. I said absolutely! This would be great a great way to get the word out on my stationery. Sponsors of Wedding in a Week will include Wedding Wire, Houston Wedding Showcase, radio station Mix 96.5, Fox26 and Channel 55. Here is the website which posts all the info.

Winter Wedding

Congratulations to Nikki and Harry on their wedding day yesterday. They went with a simple and sleek graphite pocketfold accented with black and deep red to complement their winter wedding. Table numbers and tea length wedding programs also were included in their stationery.

Perfect Pocketfold

Last August at the Houston Wedding Showcase, I met Magen Johnson with Hand in Hand Weddings & Event. Since then, she has brought many couples my way. Katie and David and I rummaged through my samples and what Katie wanted to do was make a statement with a large invite. She fell in love with the 7x7 pocketfold invite as soon as she saw it and knew it was "the one." We quickly came up a combo of royal blue, black and silver. Katie absolutely knew she had to have the wedding program fan with a touch of paisley for her April wedding. Not only will it keep her guests cool, but it will also double as a wedding favor.

Black, White & Apple Green

Khoa and Jasmine are good friends of my cousin Sylvia and her husband Phong. We met a couple of months ago and they knew they wanted to have a black and white wedding. They wanted a modern and classy wedding. An accent color was a must but couldn't be decided upon. I showed them some weddings with the popular apple green color and immediately they loved it! With a summer wedding, I knew that this color would fit in perfectly. Together we chose a save the date magnet full of circles because Jasmine loves circles. Then a bifolded invite with a black and white patterned paper nicely complemented their vision. And of course closing their wedding stationery off with a thank you card.
