Tumbling Heart, Red Inspired Wedding Invitations & Stationery - Lyndsay & Craig

This is what happens when you carry a theme right the way through...
Tumbling Heart, Red Inspired Wedding Invitations & Stationery - Lindsay & Craig

Lindsay & Craig chose the Tumbling Heart Design
For their daytime invitations....


And evening invitations too....



The venue, Allerton Court Hotel, Northallerton,
 also offered a menu choice 
and these were sent with the RSVP's




Once the R.S.V.P's are back, it's time to make the seating plan...



The red border reflects the colours chosen for their
Bridesmaids dresses...... 



And the silver on ivory complimented it beautifully.....


 We offer many solutions when it comes to table names and numbers
Flat cards need something to stand on.... like a mini easel 
or one of the many card holders available




We prefer to make these
Stand Alone cards......



And of course we can introduce you colour scheme into them too....



And we made the place cards to match.
All the names are written in Calligraphy




Which offers a truly personal touch.....



 We use Gouache paint as it's far less likely to bleed and smude
and once dry gives crisp lines and is also opaque
so you can easily have white letters on a dark coloured cardstock


In the modern age of computer lettering
people LOVE to see their names hand lettered
and in the case of unusual names, it's very often the 
only thing they have ever had, which is personalised with their names



I mean.... it's not often you see this is it?


And of course.... once the celebrations are over,
it's important to THANK YOU GUESTS! 
A little acknowledgement goes a long way!





So.... there you have it. A full wedding order from start to finish. Sadly the 'On the Day' stationery often gets overlooked when it comes to Wedding Photography, especially in the UK. But the 'On the Day' items are as important as the balloons and table sprinkles.  It would be lovely to see how everything comes together... especially when Menus and Order of Services and Order of the Day are involved too. But unless I gatecrash the party or hire a private photographer, it's unlikely I'll get to see it.

I'm sure... along with all the other bits and pieces of the wedding day, the whole thing looked fabulous and of course... the most important thing is, that everyone had a really great and memorable day.

Hot Pink and Purple Numbers and Postbox - Emily & Lee

I just LOVE 2 tone Wedding Themes.
When Emily contacted me I was more than a little excited 
about using Hot Pink & Purple together.

First the Wedding Post Box
Purple bordered card,
Hot Pink foil,
And dual coloured Butterflies and ribbon.

How gorgeous does this look?



I made the number cards the opposite way around.

Hot pink bordered card,
Cadbury's Purple Foiled Numbers,
And purple butterflies.....




By gluing only half the butterfly down
the other half can be bent upwards,
giving the impression of a butterfly in flight




Don't you think they look great?


And here's the butterfly cutter I used
by Martha Stewart.
They are a bit pricey if you are a DIY Bride,
but it's by far the nicest Butterfly Cutter on the market.



I also have Table Seating Plan Cards to make and matching Menus......
I'll post pictures of them as soon as they are made.

Any more 2 Tone Brides out there?
What colours are you putting together? 

I love to hear your insirational thoughts.
