April + Nathan

What an honor it was to be a witness as my best friend April, and her then fiancé, Nathan, eloped casually on a beautiful Tuesday afternoon at the LA Arboretum.

I love that everything about how and where they chose to get married, was so perfectly them. No big announcement, no grand ceremony. Just the two of them, exchanging their personal vows with the tropical greenhouse as their backdrop.

I also had the privilege of designing their wedding announcement and I’m thrilled to finally be able to share it with you today.

We kept things simple by doing a printed vellum wrap around a photo of April + Nathan from their special day.

Congratulations April + Nathan!

Rustic Chic Bridal Shower Invitations

Here is a rustic chic bridal shower invitation I recently worked on. The color palette was inspired by the bride’s favorite color, purple.  The burlap ribbon was a last minute add on to give the invite that extra little rustic touch.

Kraft paper labels were used to wrap around soft lavender envelopes, which was a nice contrast to the darker purples used on the invite.

Here are some pics from a recent Jane Austen inspired bridal shower tea party my sister hosted for our cousin.  I helped create the invitations, party favors, and the decor used throughout the party.

A custom silhouette of the bride-to-be was used on the invite as well as the party favors, which were lavender scented sachets.

Small tea cup floral arrangments, Jane Austen books and quotes were used as decoration throughout the house.
