    Today I’m sharing Amanda and Derek’s stunning Philadelphia LOVE wedding that took place downtown this past June. From their LOVE statue themed wedding invitations to their horse drawn carriage through the city, this wedding is chockfull of Philadelphia iconography. Amanda and Derek got married at St. Paul’s Parish in the Italian market and took a horse drawn carriage through the city to the Ballroom at the Ben for their wedding reception.

    I worked with Amanda on her LOVE statue themed wedding invitations, which were our shop Love Park invitations with a map and folder enclosure add-on. I also worked with her on escort cards, thank you cards for her wedding party, and dancing shoes and guestbook signs (more on that in tomorrow’s post). It is so much fun working on the various pieces of the wedding because the bride and I build a relationship through the wedding planning process. Below I have asked Amanda a couple of questions to help inspire future Philly wedding couples.

    Allison: What was your favorite detail at your wedding?
    Amanda: Definitely my dress, cake, our matching Christian Louboutin shoes and the character of the Ballroom at the Ben.

    Allison: Favorite moment at your wedding?

    Amanda: Ah there are many!  First seeing each other in the church, leaving in the horse and carriage ride. People in the city were congratulating us, beeping/waving and telling me how beautiful I looked – I felt like a princess.

    Tribal Dreamcatcher Inspired Baby Shower on Hostess with the Mostess

    • September 4, 2015

    Dreamcatcher Bridal Shower featured on Hostess with the Mostest













    Sometimes I’m lucky enough to work on baby shower stationery and signs. This past May I worked with Truly You Events and the (at the time) mom-to-be on a dreamcatcher themed baby shower, which was inspired by the parents’ recent trip to Sedona. Sedona is a magical place…I adore it…so I knew this shower was going to be magical as well. So magical in fact that Hostess with the Mostess featured it on their blog today.

    Later I will share some more photos of this lovely event, but for now you must take a second a scroll through this beautiful party on Hostess with the Mostess!

I met this beautiful family at an open house at @i I met this beautiful family at an open house at @innatbarleysheaffarm last December and we soon worked together on their invitation suite! I worked with the bride and her mother throughout the process and it was so lovely! The mother of the bride even reached out to me after the weekend in gratitude! 🙏 I love hearing (and seeing) how everything comes together at the wedding so that was such a gift! Congratulations Olivia and Alex!

The epitome of a fall wedding complete with fall l The epitome of a fall wedding complete with fall leaves painted throughout. But what really sets this suite apart is the couple’s adorable cats and the Love Story map on their save the dates. I love painting a couple’s story into their wedding stationery—every detail is personal and reflects what’s most special to the couple.

If you are looking to work with an artist to set that personal, so you tone for your wedding, reach out—I’d love to learn more about you!

Just got back from the most incredible trip to Nic Just got back from the most incredible trip to Nice, France, where we stayed at the stunning @fscapferrat Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, a Four Seasons Hotel. Between the kindest, most generous service, gorgeous architecture, lush gardens, Mediterranean views, and all the little details—it was heaven!

I’ve always had such a love for beautiful places and thoughtful details, which is probably why luxury travel and luxury weddings go hand in hand for me. It’s all about creating an experience that feels special and unforgettable.

And of course, I couldn’t help but daydream about designing stationery for a wedding along the French Riviera. (Have I mentioned how much I LOVE destination weddings?!) 🎨💌

Coming home with a camera roll full of inspiration and already dreaming of going back!

Special thanks to @letsgoglobetrotting_travel for setting me up with a room upgrade and expert travel itinerary planning!! Honeymooners—check her out!
In celebration of my trip to Edinburgh, I wanted t In celebration of my trip to Edinburgh, I wanted to share this invitation suite for a destination wedding at @1eileandonancastle in the Isle of Skye in Scotland. I adored painting the custom illustrated map with all of the local must-sees. On the back was their itinerary which was so thoughtfully prepared. And then the scarf trying Scottish tradition on the RSVP to add in some of the culture. Edinburgh is so dreamy and I really was inspired by that in Lauren and Collier’s invitation suite. #handpaintedweddings #handpaintedweddingstationery #scotlandwedding #destinationweddinginvitation
Vintage stamps are an unexpected detail that can t Vintage stamps are an unexpected detail that can tell a story on your envelope. Whether it’s a color story—such as all green stamps on a green envelope, or a personal story—such as adding personal details like a sailboat if the couple is into sailing, or even a story about the wedding—such as floral stamps that match the flowers at the weddding or a state stamp for the state of the wedding. Guests will recognize the details. #weddingdetails #vintagestamps #handpaintedweddings
Happy wedding weekend to Gillian and Taylor who go Happy wedding weekend to Gillian and Taylor who got married at @oceanreefclub in Key Largo! I loved working with them on their letterpress watercolor wedding invitation suite with metallic plum envelopes with beach scenes from their venue throughout. Their adorable dogs in a bow tie and floral necklace were painted on their RSVP for that personal touch. #keylargowedding #handpaintedweddings #beachweddinginvitation
