Happy Weekend!

Just wanted to show you a few photos from the Enchanted Brides Show that we participated in on January 8th at the Country Music Hall of Fame. It was an evening show. We had a fabulous time! Thanks so much if you're a bride or planner who came by to say hello! You know we always do different business cards for each show - and this was the coolest! We did a vinyl record with all digits and info... a very big hit (maybe it will be a PLATINUM record? #1 hit? couldn't resist :) )

The view from above... (you can see our booth - toward the right on the end just above the flourish - it's not a table!)

And our booth - for this show we did both sides of our displays - SWEET!

2009 Color Trend Alert, Pantone's Mimosa

Okay ladies!!! This one is for all of you who are still trying to figure out your colors for your wedding. Pantone, the name in all things colored, has announced its color of the year. Mimosa!

What a stunning color! This may look to just be a spring or summer color but by mixing it up a little we believe that you could take this all the way through winter. Check out the color pallets we came up with for each season below. We came up with some traditional selections for the brides who want classic and elegant choices as well as some non-traditional for those brides who are more interested in contemporary, modern, and fun. After all, your day should reflect you and your soon to be husband’s personalities because your big day IS all about YOU.
Now obviously we are not suggesting you put your whole color scheme on your stationary, but knowing what your major colors are and then using really neat accent colors on the big day to pull the theme together is a great idea. We hope we have got those wheels turning!

More booth shots

Just wanted to let you know we'll be at the Enchanted Brides show at the Country Music Hall of Fame on Thursday (wait, that's today!). The show is from 5p - 9p. So come on out and see us!

Now, back to the booth from Saturday. We wanted to show a lot of different styles for this show - and new ideas from other shows we've done - so we had a great time using metallic papers and new graphic designs. Check out the cool custom wine label we made to go with the invitation - imagine that on your wine/sparklings favors! On the other boards, we had some fun ideas - truffle box and water bottles labels and one of the cutest popcorn box labels you'll ever see. If your a movie buff and you're having a fun event (doesn't even have to be a wedding), think of how cool that would be.

SO, enjoy the rest of the booth - and we'll have shots from the Enchanted Brides next. And I'll just give you a hint... we have the coolest business cards we've ever done at this show! We cannot wait to give them out!

Weddings:The Bridal Show

First off, thanks to everyone who came by to see us on Saturday at Weddings:The Bridal Show. We had a great time (even for those hours of standing) and thought you'd like to see a few samplings of our booth in case you weren't there ... or if you were just wanting to see it all again :) We had a brand new booth design this year - lots of new ideas and products to feature - which we'll be doing in the next while... (so come back and visit again soon!)

We wanted to be able to show a number of different kinds of invitations - from the modern to the elegant as well as get to use some cool embellishments that we do... So, our first panel was the cool swirls that are so hot right now... imagine LARGE confetti! Also this panel showed a few various of save the dates - including save the date magnets with a favorite photo...

Next, we'll do some more shots and details about the rest of the booth! Stay tuned....
