Unique ceremony set ups

I love Pinterest! I wish it was around a couple years ago when I was planning my wedding. I've found some great ideas for ceremony set-ups lately, so I thought I would share for those brides who are looking to make their wedding just a little more unique:

So, there are five of us at my work who are either on maternity leave or about to go on maternity leave. At the beginning of February, we had our first round of baby showers, so I created three cards. I just think this stamp set is so cute, and I can't wait to use it lots for baby shower invitations and baby cards!

Trend we love: bold lips

One of the trends we've been seeing on Pinterest lately is bold lips in bold reds and colourful corals. It's a great way to add a touch of drama to your wedding look without going overboard. Here are some of our favourite looks:

Colour combination we love: aqua, yellow and charcoal

We're in the midst of designing our first DIY design for our clients, Erin and Donovan, who have chosen a refreshing colour combination of aqua, yellow and charcoal for their wedding. I just LOVE how bright and fresh this combination looks, and I think they're going to have a stunning wedding. Here's an inspiration board I found to share with you so you can see just how great these colours look together:

We're just finishing up the final design samples for Erin and Donovan's DIY designs, so we'll have those posted to share with you as soon as they're done!

Sneak peek: Amanda & Cory's gold and eggplant pocketfold invitations

I have a wedding invitation sneak peek to show you today! Amanda and Cory are getting married in July at the Fairmont Palliser Hotel and wanted to create classy, elegant stationery to match their stunning venue. Using colours found in the room, they decided on going with a gold pocketfold invitation with eggplant and cream accent colours. A classic, swirled stamp was used on the inside of the invitation and on the RSVP card, and an elegant monogram adorns the front of the invite. I can't wait to share the samples with this wonderful couple and promise to post more pictures once they've seen them and have made a final decision on which design they want to go with.
