For the save the dates we worked with Studio R to bring in the champagnes and blues of the wedding while showing our accent color of a buttery yellow. The soft Chocolate writing really gave this set such a soft and almost vintage look as none of the colors were overwhelming, but soft and attractive to the eye.
For the invitation we decided to tone down the yellows and bring through more of our blue color to really give it a soft and more formal feeling. Studio R created the perfect sized folder set incorporating our great swirl pattern.
This is when our crafty bride took matters into her own hands. Once Kristen set her mind to something she could do anything she wanted. Everything was done perfectly to a T. Here are some of the things that she created for the wedding.
Each hand tied program came in its individualized sleeve. Bringing through the monogram created for the Save the Date as well as the swirl design they fit perfectly into the theme of the wedding.
The cute little place cards in envelopes hand written by the bride. Each envelope held a miniature picture that corresponded with the picture marking each table. We set them in trays of yellow grits to bring in some of our yellow coloring. A very cute escort table if I must say so myself.
Each menu custom cut and mounted by the bride flowed perfectly with the rest of her stationery.
Dancing shoes the bride provided with her custom made tags. Each tied by hand by the bride and her mother.
Last but certainly not least, the bags put together by the bride. Custom label bottled water, packages of grits, Charleston chews and a guide book of Charleston. The crown jewel of these bags was the home baked benne seed wafers baked and packaged by the mother of the bride. The ladies in this family were oh so talented in so many ways and it was such a joy helping them create the wedding of Kristen's dreams.
