A Birthday fit for a Princess

Looking at the photos of this birthday celebration, I couldn't help but wish I was a 4-year-old again. Everything looked incredibly fun and magical! Emery's princess-themed party was an enchanting affair, with her donning a crown and surrounded by beloved Disney princesses.

To match the theme, I designed custom scroll invitations that were elegantly wrapped with purple satin ribbon, adding a touch of regal charm. Additionally, I created die-cut menus and signage that perfectly matched the theme, completing the overall enchanting atmosphere of the event. It was a joy to be a part of creating such a memorable and magical experience for Emery and her loved ones.

Transport yourself to the charming streets of Paris, France. In the distance stands the iconic Eiffel Tower, while the enticing aroma of freshly baked baguettes and delicate macarons wafts through the air. This romantic ambiance served as the backdrop for an extraordinary wedding celebration.

To capture the essence of this inspired setting, I had the pleasure of designing the couple's custom wedding invitations. Adorned with elegant gold foil accents, the invitations featured a breathtaking painting commissioned during their time in France. To add a touch of sophistication, we created a custom monogram wax seal that elegantly sealed the envelopes, tying everything together in a seamless ensemble.

For the reception, I continued the theme. I crafted beautiful signs, escort cards, and meticulously foiled table numbers, each element contributing to the overall ambiance of the event. Every detail was carefully considered to ensure a cohesive and unforgettable experience for the couple and their guests.

Just like strolling the streets of Paris, this wedding exuded an air of romance, elegance, and refined taste. It was an absolute pleasure to be part of creating an enchanting atmosphere that transported everyone to the magical world of Parisian charm.

The luncheon menus for this event were as charming as can be. They featured a custom cut wrap enclosure in a delightful slate blue hue. To add an extra touch of elegance, I incorporated a die-cut layered cross in a stunning silver metallic and white combination, perfectly holding the menus together.

In addition to the menus, I also crafted a beautifully coordinated quote card and table sign that complemented the theme of the event. Its design and colors seamlessly tied in with the overall aesthetic, creating a cohesive and stylish look.
