See more beautiful photos in the post below.  What a wonderful day! Thanks to Kristen Grinnell Photography for the photos!

My husband’s beautiful cousin, Jenna, was recently married to wonderful Michael.  They are such a special couple!   Their beautiful wedding was coordinated by Sandy Walker of In Awe Weddings.  Jenna’s colors were apple green and chocolate, with a touch of fuchsia.  It looked amazing!  She wanted a natural, elegant feel. 

For her invitation, we used a tree graphic to bring in the natural elements.  We brought the fuchsia color into the tables by designing a fuschia “stitch” up the side of the menu.  It looked amazing with the chocolate linens and apple green napkins.  Jenna’s photographer, Kristen Grinnell, did a wonderful job of capturing the day.  Talented Emily Estfan of EME Photography was her second shooter that day.  Check out the beautiful photos!

Whether you’re writing thank-you notes for your wedding gifts or for your Christmas presents, it is very important to thank the person specifically for what they bought you.  I don’t believe in pre-printed generic thank-you cards… even if you had 350 people come to your wedding.  If they took the time to choose a gift for you, you must take the time to thank them.  Some people choose to purchase pre-printed thank-you notes that say “Thank you for the wedding gift.  We appreciate your kindness.  Love, Jane and Jack” but I don’t recommend it!

For example, if they bought you a Kitchen Aid mixer, you can thank them by saying how much you’ve enjoyed using it to make homemade chocolate chip cookies.  Basically, make sure that you mention the actual gift.  I like telling people how I’ve used it as well. 

Here are a few samples of recent thank-you notes I’ve done. They don’t have to be super fancy!  In fact, I really like a 4×5 flat card with a monogram at the top.  It’s also fun to include a photo.  Feel free to Contact Me with any questions or ordering information.

First of all, these photos are AMAZING.  EME Photography… nice work!  I keep going back to look at them!

Danielle is one of the sweetest people in the world, and she was a pleasure to work with.  Nick was very appreciative and kind as well.  Sandy Walker of In Awe Weddings coordinated this wedding, which had tons of incredible details. 

For the paper products, Sandy found a pillow with the word “Love” on it and our friend and graphic artist helped me re-create it on paper.  We used it on the escort cards and cookie labels for their cookie bar. The wedding was at Bentley Projects, an art gallery, so Sandy ran with that theme and placed the escort cards on little art easels. Their programs were simple, yet elegant to match their black and white and red.

Again, it was such a pleasure to work with Danielle and Nick and to get to know their families and friends.

Julieann and Michael had a fun wedding at the gorgeous Arizona Biltmore Resort. It was a fabulous event, and it was well-planned thanks to the coordination of my mom (In Awe Weddings and Events). The rain showers even held off just in time for the ceremony!

Julieann, Michael, and I created these invitations for their special day. They knew exactly what they liked and were a lot of fun.

Thanks to Kevin King, photographer for these fantastic pictures!
