Cheers to Ilana & Corey! When Ilana first came to me one of her biggest concerns was finding a script with a “good letter I”. She loved a lot of script fonts but thought that too often the first letter of her name looked more like an L or T or even a J. I assured her we’d find a good one, but it was a way bigger challenge than I anticipated. I was almost ready to give in and hire to do some spot calligraphy, but I decided I’d try one last option first where I had redrawn the I digitally (by hand), and that was the winner! I love how their names look on the final invitation; they’re big and beautiful but with a touch of whimsy and the perfect letter I!

“Katie’s work is SO stunning!!! We are absolutely in love with all of our stationary and day-of items. We wanted a classic and clean design and Katie helped us achieve just that. We used the custom monogram Katie designed for us throughout our entire wedding - on the invitations, the ceremony program, the matchboxes, hotel bags, the ice sculpture, the DJ booth, cocktail napkins, the list goes on! It truly tied our whole wedding together. She also drew an illustration of Eagle Oaks to use on our invitations and our matchboxes, as well as designed our signature drink signs. Everything was so gorgeous! Katie was lovely to work with and was so helpful throughout the entire process. We cannot recommend her enough! Thank you Katie!!!“

Have you ever been to a wedding where there was a personal note addressed to you waiting at your place setting? Or where the bride printed their favorite photo of you together and used it as your es**rt card? Or where your favor was personalized to YOU instead of with the wedding branding? Or where your plate of food looked different from your date’s because the bride and groom knew about your gluten intolerance and provided you with a special meal without you having to ask or pick around what you couldn’t eat?

I could go on, but my point is that these moments do not always cost you more money as the host, but they do leave a lasting impression on your guests. And the impression left is that you value them as a member of your family and inner circle, and you’re truly thankful and honored to have them at your wedding. Couples are always told “this is your day, it’s all about what you want”..: but that’s not entirely accurate. The whole point of a wedding is to share this special occasion with your favorite people. And as you plan your big day, keep in mind that your guests will love the flowers and the cake and the cloud dance, and they’ll think “this all must have cost a fortune”… but they’ll be much more wowed by moments that make THEM feel special.

Some of my couples come to me with their own unique ideas for these personal touches, but I also have tons of suggestions for ways to incorporate custom moments into your day-of stationery! Let’s chat 🤍
