Monogram Inital table numbers

Today we worked on some table numbers from our Monogram Initial invitation suite.  They were printed on ivory shimmer linen cardstock and mounted on black linen cardstock.  The bride really loved the multiple fonts we used on Courtney's table numbers, so we did a semi-custom design to incorporate those for her.  The table numbers are all topped with the bride and groom's new last name initial.

Real Wedding: Courtney & Dan

The gorgeous reception was held at Lowes Coronado.

I simply LOVE Courtneys place card layout!  She had large wooden trays custom made, which were then filled with sand.  Each of her calligraphy place cards were tied onto a starfish, and all the starfish were nesstled into the sand.  Just gorgeous! 
{anyone want to use the giant trays?  oh yeah, I have them!!}
A damask menu in her pattern sat at each pacesetting topped with an amazing shortbread cookie with their monogram PRINTED onto eatable frosting!!  These amazing custom cookies came from my favorite sugar queens at Sweet Cheeks.  A favor tag was tied onto the cookie as well.
Since we used two different fonts and a variety of damask combinations on all her pieces, we did the same for the table numbers.  They varied table to table...


Amazing, beautiful, and quite tasty cake from the girls at Sweet Cheeks.  See the damask pattern?  Yeah, it the same pattern!  The marvelous Elaine printed it on the cake!


I did all the calligraphy for Courtney as well as designed all her stationery products.  Each place card also had a little jewel on it!

Ok, I had to throw this in there as well.  Jenny, at least you know who he is!! Look at that dip, ladies and gentlemen!! Oh, and is she wearing Dolce & Gabbana?

Real Wedding: Courtney & Dan

Courtney & I sat down one day and the conversation went something like this, "I love paper, I love this pattern, what could we possibly put it on?"  I said, "everything!"  We went a tad nuts, but had a great time doing it!

Door signs for the girls room while they were getting ready at Lowes Coronado, where the reception was held.

the gorgeous bride:
  
Her amazing invitations!  We did custom envelope liners with her pattern and the couples monogram.
her programs are one of my personal faves!  Shimmer coverstock with her damask pattern and tied with a purple satin ribbon.  More on these later...
remember these?  I love her custom petal cones with her damask pattern and their monogram on the inside!
Each of the petal cones and the bubbles were topped with little mini tags with cute saying on them paired with the same damask pattern.
Matching lables?  Oh yes.

more from  their reception to come!
